Sermon Summaries

Home > Church Family > Sermon Summaries

The main church service program starts at 11am on Saturday morning and runs for an hour. This is the one time when all members of the church are together at the same time. (Prior to 11am, Sabbath School programs run, where there are different Sabbath Schools for different age groups)

The main feature of this hour is a presentation/sermon by the church pastor, or by a visiting guest speaker, or maybe another member of the local church family. The links below contain summaries of the sermons presented. The preacher provides his or her sermon in article form to the Webmaster, so that these sermons can be placed in this area of the website. This allows those who heard the sermon to review its content, while also allowing those who were not present to read the sermon for the first time.

(You are welcome to download, distribute, and use these sermons for whatever purpose you see fit.
If you republish any of these sermons, please provide a reference back to this website.)

We do not have any online content for the following weeks, but they are listed here anyway so that you can see what happened...
