WHAT IS PULLING YOU OFF COURSE?
This Sunday, join us as we look at what happens when God puts something clearly on your heart, but everything around you tries to pull you off course. In Acts 21, Paul shows us what it looks like to live with a conviction that cannot be diverted, even when fear, worry, and the voices of people you love try to change your direction. If you have ever known what God wanted you to do but struggled to follow through, this message is for you.
Join us at Tompkins High School at 10:00 am. The link to watch LIVE is on our YouTube Channel. You can go to our home page on our website or our App to connect.
God bless,
Pastor Scott

STUDENT MINISTRY SUMMER CAMP:
This summer, give your student the chance to be part of something truly life changing. From June 7–13, our students will head to Camp Menard to partner with Team Effort and serve families still recovering from last year’s devastating floods, all while growing deeper in their faith, friendships, and purpose. This will be more than just a camp. It will be a week of impact, unforgettable memories, and kingdom work that can shape a student for years to come. If you want your child to be part of something bigger than themselves, you can sign up on the church app or email Jake Glass at jake@livingstones.org for more information.

BE A BLESSING MOMENT
This May, we have a simple but powerful opportunity to remind moms in our community that they are seen, loved, and not forgotten. We’ll be handing out over 100 carnations to mothers coming out of Kroger, and while it may seem like a small gesture, moments like this can mean far more than we realize. Last year, one woman broke down in tears because her children no longer speak to her, and that flower became more than a flower, it became a reminder that God still sees her. If you would love to be part of showing the kindness of Jesus in a simple but meaningful way, come join us. Sign up here or on the church app!
Sometimes the smallest acts of love open the biggest doors for hope.

NEW MEN'S BIBLE STUDY:THE BOOK OF JOB
We are starting a new study on the Book of Job, where we will discover that righteous people still suffer and that God is often doing far more than we can understand. We will learn that honest wrestling is not the same as unbelief, that bad theology can deeply hurt people, and that God’s presence is greater than His explanations. Along the way, we will see that while restoration does not erase suffering, God redeems it, and that our relationship with Him can endure questions, pain, silence, and confusion when we keep turning toward Him.
Men, join us every Tuesday night for our Men’s Bible Study as we open God’s Word together and grow in faith, character, and brotherhood. This is a space to be challenged, encouraged, and sharpened through Scripture and honest conversation.
We meet weekly from 6:30 to 8:00 pm. Directions and details will be available on the church app.

Join us on Sunday, May 31st, for our church Potluck as we gather around more than just a meal, but around the joy of fellowship, laughter, and life together as the family of God. We’ll be serving fried chicken, and we would love for you to bring a favorite side dish or dessert to share as we enjoy a sweet time of connection and community with one another.
