TOMORROW IS BUDDY TRAINING: Families in our community who have children with special needs need our support! Buddy Training provides info on how to help by being a Buddy at Buddy Break, a free respite program where kids have fun and parents get a break from their ongoing child care responsibilities. Buddy Training is from 9:00-11:00 am. Snacks will be provided. Adults go through a free back-ground check and children can serve as Buddy Helpers. Contact Tana Seufert at 805.824.5794 or tana@goldcoastchurch.org with any questions.

 

THIS SUNDAY MORNING, we have a couple of special individuals who we’ll be introducing at both of our morning gathering times, 9:15 and 10:45. You’ll want to be sure to attend and meet them!

 

We’ll also be continuing our message series, “The Gospel According to Joseph,” bydigging into Genesis 39. We’ll discover how Joseph handled some ongoing temptation that came his way. It’s kind of a racy passage. Read it sometime before heading to church on Sunday in preparation. You’re going to be encouraged as we learn some powerful principles that we can apply to our lives today. Sunday would be a great day to invite a friend to join you at Gold Coast!

 

PRAYER FOR MISSIONS THIS SUNDAY: On the first Sunday of each month, you’re invited to gather in the Worship Center after the 2nd service to pray for the missions and missionaries that Gold Coast supports. For more information, contact Mike or Lynne Yeaman at yeaman7@hotmail.com or 805.331.3899.
