Final Sunday @ Frank Theaters!

out-of-control-main

This week marks the final Sunday we’ll be meeting at Frank Theaters before moving to our first full-time venue in North York.  All month long during the OUT OF CONTROL sermon series, we’ve been dealing with this simple reality:

“Trying to maintain control is exhausting and futile, and being out of control is even WORSE!”

However, ALL OF US still struggle at some level in coping with CHANGE.  I can’t think of a better week to talk about dealing with change than on our final week at a venue that we’ve occupied for over half the life-span of our church…than on the final week (for now) of being a portable church as we move to our first actual 24-7 “church building”….than at the very beginning of a brand new chapter in the story of actionchurch!   In short, this is the perfect week to talk about CHANGE…and I can’t think of a better source to consult than the book of Acts of the Apostles.

Unless you are traveling this weekend out of town I urge you to not miss this Sunday as we will have MANY announcements and updates about our upcoming move.  This week also features some great new music from the Gale, along with all the normal food and fun that makes actionchurch ANYTHING but a normal Sunday morning at church! We look forward to seeing you at Frank Theaters Queensgate- 10:30 am (DIRECTIONS), and as usual, the actionkidz crew has a fantastic hour of learning and fun planned for your kids (infant to 6th grade) as well.

Over the last two weeks of the “OUT OF CONTROL” series we’ve been talking about a truth about life that EVERYONE knows:

“Trying to maintain control is exhausting and futile, and being out of control is even WORSE!”

However, this week we’ll be discussing something that VERY FEW people know…a secret about living a life “under control”, that will change the way you think about prayer, miracles, God’s Holy Spirit, and what it means to actually “live for God”.

We’re counting down our final Sundays at the theater, and I hope none of you miss a single opportunity to serve, give, gather and most of all be part of the amazing story that is unfolding each week at actionchurch. This week also features some great new music from the Jesse Baker Band, the latest updates on our 5/31 move to a permanent facility in North York , along with all the normal food and fun that makes actionchurch ANYTHING but a normal Sunday morning at church! We look forward to seeing you at Frank Theaters Queensgate- 10:30 am (DIRECTIONS), and as usual, the actionkidz crew has a fantastic hour of learning and fun planned for your kids (infant to 6th grade) as well.

Mothers Day @ actionchurch

This Sunday is Mothers Day, and we’ve got an important message for Mom (and all the other ladies in your life as well).  Last week at the beginning of the “OUT of CONTROL” sermon series we introduced this truth:

“Trying to maintain control is exhausting and futile, and being out of control is even WORSE!”

Clearly, the women who gave birth to us, care for us, worry about us, (and yes try to maintain at least some control over us as children..and beyond) understand this better than ANYONE else on the planet.  (And it’s true for the rest of us as well!)  The GREAT news is that there IS another way.  There is another choice beyond being “out of control” and struggling to be “in control”.  I can’t wait to continue to share exactly what that way is…

This week also features some great new music from Frank Hendrickson, BIG announcements about our 5/31 move to a permanent facility in North York , along with all the normal food and fun that makes actionchurch ANYTHING but a normal Sunday morning at church! We look forward to seeing you at Frank Theaters Queensgate- 10:30 am (DIRECTIONS), and as usual, the actionkidz crew has a fantastic hour of learning and fun planned for your kids (infant to 6th grade) as well.

This Sunday, 10am!!!

What do you do when life hands you circumstances beyond your control? How do you react when you realize that you do NOT in fact control the universe…not even a little bit?  What do you do when the Hulk, Ironman, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Thor need you to vacate the theater you rent for Sunday Church Services 45 minutes earlier than usual?   You can find out the answers to ALL of these questions Sunday, as begin our brand new “OUT OF CONTROL” sermon series!  (And we aren’t joking about having to start at 10am this week only…this is not a drill…be there early…and remind your friends)

You won’t want to miss this Sunday.  Just four more Sunday’s until we move to our new venue in North York!  (5/31/15)  We’ve also got great music planned from Silver City Rodeo, along with all the normal food and fun that makes actionchurch ANYTHING but a normal Sunday morning at church! We look forward to seeing you at Frank Theaters Queensgate- 10:00 am (DIRECTIONS), and as usual, the actionkidz crew has a fantastic hour of learning and fun planned for your kids (infant to 6th grade) as well.

This Sunday is the Grand finale of the “Four Amazing people you probably didn’t know that met Jesus and What happened next will BLOW YOUR MIND! Which one are you?” sermon series.   We’ve learned a lot this month.  We’ve learned that having a sermon series title that includes multiple run-on sentences and more than 140 Characters sounds fun…but actually get’s sort of a annoying by the end of the month.  We’ve learned that animated gifs that are cute when they are less than four inches tall on your iPad, can actually cause motion sickness and seizures when they are projected on a forty foot hi-def movie screen. :-)   Most importantly; though, we’ve learned that meeting Jesus can  COMPLETELY change your life…as illustrated by the people we’ve been introduced to during this series.

On Easter, learned from a dying criminal that its NEVER to late to repent of your sins and turn to Jesus.  The following Sunday we learned from a woman named Mary that you are never too broken or too powerless to run to Jesus…he knows your name!   Last week though, we learned a bitter truth from a man named Judas, that just “knowing Jesus” isn’t ENOUGH.  We learned that Jesus said it was totally possible to claim him as “Lord” or “Master” and still miss out on an eternity with him.  The story of Judas is a difficult one with a bitter ending…but It just makes this weeks final story of a man named Simon Peter SO MUCH SWEETER!

Don’t miss this ultimate story of redemption and forgiveness.  If you ever gone through a crisis…a time that you questioned your life decisions up to that point…maybe even questioned your faith…THIS is the story for you.   This week also features new music from “Meg and the Right Sound“, our Spring Small group kick off, BIG announcements about our move to a permanent facility in North York and the month of May in general, along with all the normal food and fun that makes actionchurch ANYTHING but a normal Sunday morning at church! We look forward to seeing you at Frank Theaters Queensgate- 10:30 am (DIRECTIONS), and as usual, the actionkidz crew has a fantastic hour of learning and fun planned for your kids (infant to 6th grade) as well.
