On Belay
He Is Risen!
In a few short weeks, we’ll be welcoming Spring—but more importantly—we’ll be celebrating the resurrection of Jesus!
Join us for a special Sunrise Service and also for our regular times of worship on both Sunday and Tuesday.
Paul says in 1 Corinthians 15:17–19, “if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost. If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied” (NIV).
We thank God that Jesus has indeed been raised. Our faith is not futile; our sins are forgiven through faith in Him; and we have hope of eternal life in Christ.
Take a look at this most recent edition of On Belay below to see a few highlights from the past few months—as well as a few things to look forward to.
Belay on!

Friday Night Feast!
On the 1st Friday of March, we had the biggest Friday Night Neighborhood Dinner we’ve ever had. Maybe because Spring is near? Maybe because we had Chinese hot pot? Maybe because Samuel is looking a little bit like The Rock?
Whatever it was, it was a lot of fun. We loved how many international students showed up, all the conversations, laughs, and great food!
Slope Service
Emma, Jared, and Matt hit the slopes at Eldora (along with several others) handing out cookies, offering prayer, and inviting people to get their skis and snowboards waxed for free.
Interested in joining them sometime? Best way to do that is watch for upcoming announcements in Circle.
Free Resources
We’re putting together a resource page in Circle called the “Grow Space.” We’ve got a few articles on relationships, marriage, Bible Study aids, etc., with plans to add more.
Speaking of marriage and relationships . . . here’s Paul and Patty on a date at Piece, Love & Chocolate taking a class on learning how to make truffles!
Finance Class
Roman will be facilitating a 10-week guided discussion about financial management based on Crown Financial Ministries’ approach to personal finances.
Topics: debt, budgeting, saving, giving, investing, etc.—all within the context of what scripture tells us about these topics.
Contact Roman in Circle to find out more.
