Men, Our Next Quarterly Breakfast Saturday, April 29
As one of the best opportunities for men at WPC to get connected and grow in our faith, we invite all men and sons to come out for our next Quarterly Breakfast. A “home-cooked” breakfast, a teaching time by member David Nicholas, and prayer for one another are all a part of our morning together. David will talk with us about opportunities God gives us to share our faith with others using the story of Philip in the book of Acts. Breakfast is served at 8:00 am in the FWC and we will conclude by 10:00 am.
