On Sunday, guest preacher Andy Farmer opened up Psalm 116 to address the topic of mental health. He taught us that mental anguish is a form of suffering we experience. But our struggle does not separate us from God. Our struggle does not define our lives. And our struggle can only be fully remedied by Jesus.
Registration is open for our 2019 Women’s Retreat! Sovereign Grace Churches of Orange and Santa Ana are co-hosting. We will be at Mt. Kare in Wrightwood, CA.
Ladies, don’t miss this opportunity to connect with God and with one another. These moments away from the busyness of everyday life are good for your soul and good for your friendships with other women.

All women age 16 and older from inside and outside the church are invited. Cost is $150/attendee. Carpooling and financial assistance are available.
The deadline to register is Sunday 3/24/2019.
We have partial and day passes available. There are three options: 1) all Friday to the end on Saturday, 2) all day Friday, or 3) Friday afternoon to the end on Saturday. Head to our registration page to reserve your spot.
1 The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice;
let the many coastlands be glad!
2 Clouds and thick darkness are all around him;
righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3 Fire goes before him
and burns up his adversaries all around.
4 His lightnings light up the world;
the earth sees and trembles.
5 The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,
before the Lord of all the earth.
6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
and all the peoples see his glory.

Pastor, author, and biblical counselor Andy Farmer is with us this weekend. He’ll be teaching a seminar on Friday night and then serving us by preaching from Psalm 116 on Sunday morning.
Andy’s sermon will address a topic we don’t often get to address in church: the struggle of mental illness.
We anticipate this will raise a number of questions, so we’ve also scheduled a Q&A with Andy on Sunday evening back at the Woman’s Club at 6:00pm. You don’t need to RSVP, just put it on your calendar and come with your questions.
Let the Lord strengthen your faith as you see what He’s doing in one of our sister churches in Pennsylvania.
“May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.”
