Two classes will be taught during each service: 1st-3rd grades (Room L005 downstairs) and 4th-6th grades (Room L012 downstairs). The PreK/K class will continue to meet in its current classroom and will be using Catechism Club curriculum this summer. June 7 is also promotion Sunday for PreK/K-5th grades. For the summer classes this only affects current kindergartners and 3rd graders.

Book of the Month: The Seven Faith Tribes |
 The Seven Faith Tribes By George Barna
Who are the people who most affect the direction of our country? In this provocative book, Barna identifies seven "faith tribes"---captive Christians, casual Christians, Jews, Mormons, Pantheists, Muslims, and Skeptics---to show how their beliefs, practices, demographics, lifestyle choices, and political affiliations influence American culture, politics, and values. A masterful analysis! Buy this book at Christianbook.com. |

Spring '09 Pastor's Letter |
|
Frequently I am asked what my vision is for Occoquan Bible Church. As servants and followers of the Lord Jesus Christ our “vision” and objectives should be the same as our Lord’s. So, what is Jesus’ vision for the church? While on earth, what did Jesus tell us to do as a church? We can identify that very easily. Just before his ascension Jesus gave us his great commission in Matthew 28:19-20. There Jesus told us to MAKE DISCIPLES by strategically and actively going to do that by baptizing people, and teaching men, women, and children to obey the commands of Jesus. |
