WELCOME

We are so glad you have joined us today! Our desire is that God
would bless and direct this time together. Worship is an
interactive, participatory experience and our prayer is that the
service today would strengthen and encourage you on your
spiritual journey. Whether you are new to faith, just coming back
to church, or a long-time follower of Jesus, we hope you find your
time with us engaging and meaningful.

WH AT TO EXPECT TOD AY
Worship: a time to connect with God through song and prayer.
Feel free to stand and sing with us as we praise God through
singing by following the on-screen lyrics. A typical service lasts
about 65 minutes.
Offering: We give tithes and offerings as a part of worship in
obedience, celebration, and thanksgiving to the Lord. Its also just
our way of saying, We love our church and we want to support
it! If you are a guest, you are not expected or obligated to give.
Children: We have a fully-staffed Nursery for ages three and
below. Kids ages 4-12 will be dismissed during the service to the
childrens chapel to be taught by Pastor Linda and her staff.
Message: The teaching time seeks to communicate biblical truth
in compelling, relevant ways. All of our messages are available
as podcast on our website www.estillnaz.org or through iTunes.

Response: When God is speaking, we take time to respond.

Most of the time this is after the message, but at other times it
may be in the middle of the service. An invitation is never needed
if you want to pray at the altar.
Communion: We take time monthly to celebrate Communion
and welcome all followers of Jesus Christ to participate in this act
of worship and remembrance regardless of membership or
denomination.

October is
PASTOR APPRECIATION MONTH
MICAH 6:8 MINISTRY from Sandy Schefcik
Did You Know...that at the Marine Corps Base Hawaii, activists have one
mission: booting God from base? But thanks to commanding officer Sean
Killeen, it wont happen without a fight. For weeks, a secular group has
demanded that a sign come down that says, God bless the military, their
families, and the civilians who work with them. This display, which has been
on base since the time of 9/11, is a source of great division and pain, the
organization claimed. According to the intolerant secularists at Military
Religious Freedom Foundation, its unconstitutional to wish the military Gods
best. Why? Because it gives preference to those who hold religious beliefs
over those who do not, and those who prefer a monotheistic, intervening god
over other deities or theologies. After consulting with Alliance Defending
Freedom, Colonel Killeen announced that the sign wont be going anywhere.
Our legal team has conducted exhaustive research on this issue, he
explained. Several Supreme Court cases and other federal cases, to include
the 9th Circuit, support the conclusion that the message on the sign does not
violate the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution. God bless is
commonly used in our culture in a number of contexts, and there are
numerous references to God in this nations symbols, songs, mottos, and
oaths. This sign has the secular purpose of conveying a message of support,
but does not advance or inhibit religion or any particular faith, nor does it
foster excessive government entanglement with religion.

NAZARENE MISSIONS INTERNATIONAL

October is LINKS month
Loving Interested Nazarenes Knowing and Sharing
We are assigned a missionary to communicate with and pray for over a
2 year period. Our missionary is Krystal Loeber, a young, single
woman who is pioneering a coffee house ministry in Portugal. We
send her something for her birthday (August), Thanksgiving,
Christmas and other times during the year. We also communicate with
her by email. You can pick up a contact information card about Krystal
at the NMI table in the hallway and send her an email. Let her know
you are praying for her. She currently has two prayer requests:
Her language studies
The country of Portugal
On Sunday, October 25th at 6:00pm, we will have a LINKS service.
Everyone please bring a VISA gift card to send to Krystal. She will be
able to use this for items in the coffee house as well as her personal
needs on the mission field. We also have a special video clip to show
how the new caf is going. Join us for coffee in the fellowship hall on
October 25th.
