February 1, 2026
- During the month of February, we will focus on loving God more, loving ourselves, and our neighbors. The scripture reference is taken from John 3:16, and it reads as such:
John 3:16 – For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
- We want to remind you of opportunities to continue to serve God throughout the week with us:
- Join in for our bi-weekly prayer conference calls on Mondays and Fridays from 6:00 pm-6:30 pm. The conference call number is 605-472-5360, Access code 326031.
