OA:sis - Wednesday night activities begin again Wednesday, September 4 at 6pm.  Clubz (6:45 for ages preschool through 5th grade), LIGHThouse (7pm for ages 6-12th grade) and an adult study or prayer time are available (7pm for both).    

Membership Class  - A 7-week class begins on Sunday, September 8th during the Sunday school hour.  This is a great opportunity for you to learn a great deal more on what SSB is all about.   The class will take you through core doctrines and beliefs along with how SSB is led.   It is not only a great way to learn much more about SSB but is also a necessary step to membership.  

We took a moment to thank Jettie for her 25-years of serving Standing Stone Bible Church officially.  She began in the office on September 1, 1999.  Thank you Jettie for the many lives you have blessed in many ways these last 25 years!

We shared in communion together after singing praises to our Savior.  Communion took us to John, chapter 6 and Jesus discussing the "Bread of Life."   About one year prior to the night He would institute the Lord's Supper, He would exclaim, "I Am the Bread of Life."   As our bread, He is eminent - claiming "I am" is a way of saying that He is God.   As the bread of life, He is essential.  Just as we need bread to live physically, we need Christ as our spiritual bread.   This bread also leads to eternal life.  Our "daily bread" consumed gives us temporary life but as we "feed on" Jesus we are granted eternal life.  There is also a response by us to this Bread of Life as we must enter.  Jesus said, "whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst."  We must enter and believe in Jesus.  Finally, Jesus, as our bread of life, is enough.  He makes us righteous.   We also need not look to other wells of water - He is the fountain of living water!
