Don`t forget we have two potluck opportunities this weekend (because two is always better than one). The first is our 5th Sunday Potluck featuring Ray and Annie Chisala from One Flesh Marriage ministry. Then in the evening join us for a swim party and picnic. We`ll bring the hotdogs, you bring the sides and/or dessert. See you there!
Shannon`s last Sunday with us as our DCE! 😭 Join us for a going away party after Sunday service to wish her off!
Shannon will be working with a local ministry called Stand in the Gap. SITGM works with children aging out of foster care, widows and women in incarceration and connects them with people who will mentor and love on them!

Big congratulations to our DCE Shannon O`Brien on her graduation from Leadership Broken Arrow! Leadership Broken Arrow is a 9 month program through the Chamber of Commerce to equip and engage leaders with the city.
We are so proud of all the work she has done and how she is connecting Ablaze Church to our community!
It was an eventful week here! We even had our very own Mr. Nathan come to Ablaze Christian Academy to talk about when he was a pilot! He knew he wanted to be a pilot when he was just 4 years old! Now he works with Lutheran Braille Workers to help everyone have access to the Bible!
Thank you Mr. Nathan for coming in and teaching us how God gives us all different kinds of talents to serve Him and his precious people!
Ok`d in Christ was a BLAST! Check out some of our pictures we took this weekend! We learned all about how we need a hero, and that Jesus is really the only hero we have ever known with no flaws! Hanging out with all our friends from all over Oklahoma was amazing too!! 😍
This week at youth group we all collaborated and came up with a covenant. This is a promise we are making and asking the Holy Spirit to help is keep!
After we planted seeds that will grow into flowers! Showing us that this covenant is something we have to work for! It won’t happen overnight, but we can encourage each other to grow into this as a team!
Listen to what they came up with!
“At Ablaze youth group we will put God first and his word. Be welcoming to everyone. Living a generous lifestyle, sharing our time, gifts and talents. Be willing to learn. Committed to each other, always encouraging and holding one another up. Where this is a safe place to come as you are. Respecting each other as family where love is the goal! Having fun is a priority and we have grace for each other! #WeAreNotPerfect! Jesus is!”
