Coming Up Sunday, October 14

On Sunday we will celebrate Eastgate's ministry over the past year, as part of the Month of the Ministry.  We will consider some of the ways that we have tried to live out our vision of "Seeking God, Sharing Christ, and Serving Others."  We will also acknowledge the many people who have guided our efforts in specific ministries.

In addition, we will conclude our current sermon series, "If We Are the Body...", which has looked at the metaphor for the church as the body of Christ.  Having explored the image from many angles, including the meaning of Christ's resurrected body and the bread of communion shared as the body of Christ, we will now consider how our bodies are a part of the body of Christ.  Taken from Romans 12, we will see how our bodies are each "A Living Sacrifice" that mirrors Christ's physical sacrifice through our service to others.

Following the worship service, we will share a fellowship dinner as part of our celebration.
