On Your Mark...Get Set…Read!
B.Y.O.B. (bring your own bible) in 2009, or we’ll provide one for you! 2009 is the Year of the Bible at Eastridge. The Bible is essential to our faith. It is God’s word to us. It has sustained millions of people throughout their lives. It will be the focus of our congregational life next year.

Yet most of us don’t know the Bible very well and we want to change that for our Eastridge believers in 2009. The Session approved a Year of the Bible program sponsored by the Christian Education Committee. The program is an opportunity and a challenge to read through the entire Bible in one year! We will be providing help, guidance and small group support throughout the year. Any version of the Bible that you prefer is fine, but the small group leaders, adult Sunday School and sermons will use the New Revised Standard Version.

The program will be explained in more detail in the upcoming weeks. The Year of the Bible will require commitment, but the effort will be worth the time. If you want to help us in planning for the program, talk to Pastor J.P. jpcarlson@eastridge.org or 488-7844.
