ANNOUNCEMENTS

Ecclesiastes - The Search for Meaning - This August, please join
us at Cedar Church as we wrestle with the meaning of life as 'it
really is!' What do we do when work seems so tedious, life is
unfair, fools get ahead, nothing makes us happy, old age treats us
with cruelty, and our eventual death seems so depressing? The
Preacher hopes to answer that question by looking at the futility of
life fromGod's high and wise perspective. Pastor Steve invites
you to jump feet-first into life's most knotty questions as we travel
through the twelve winding and circuitous chapters of the Book of
Ecclesiastes.
