We've seen incredible growth this fall, which is allowing us to offer new ministry opportunities at Christian Life Center.

With more children coming to CLC on Sunday mornings we have started special ministries for 1-4 year olds in our nursery, and a Childrens' Church for 5-9 year olds during the regular 10:30 Service. Children will be dismissed to their classrooms after worship time during the service. Join us for worship, fellowship, and study of God's Word Sunday mornings, and bring your kids!

Enjoy a new kind of church experience

A new way of doing church has arrived at Christian Life Center! We've brought back the way church was done during the first 200 years of its existence in the form of a new morning service from 8-9 AM on Sundays. We will still have our usual 10:30 AM service, but by adding an earlier service with a unique format we hope to bring in those who are seeking, struggling, or have left church because they are bored. Check out our new, interactive church service Sundays 8:00 AM at Christian Life Center.

New Prayer Ministry

Christian Life Center is beginning a new prayer ministry focusing on intercessory prayer. Open to any adult who has the calling or gift to be a prayer warrior. Prayer Groups meet on Sunday mornings from 7:45-8:00 and at 10:00 - 10:25 in the church library. If you are feeling called to become a part of our prayer ministry, join us this Sunday morning. And starting October 7th CLC will be open to the community for prayer on Tuesdays from noon - 1 pm and 6 - 7 pm. Use the contact option at the top of this page to get more information.

Fall Youth Group Schedule

Christian Life Center will begin its Wednesday night youth groups this year on September 10th. We are also expanding our youth ministry with a new program for middle school students.

Adventure Club for grades 1-5 will meet from 3:30 til 5:00. Middle school (grades 6-8) and high school students will meet for supper at 6:00, and then split up for games and Bible study/Christian living classes.

Call Pastor Dan or Pastor Paul with any questions at 605-892-4767.

WHY GO TO CHURCH?

Church is a place to learn about God, study the Bible, grow in your spiritual walk, and fellowship with people who care about each other.

But did you know there are other well-documented reasons to attend church?

Compared to those who don’t attend church regularly, church attenders experience:

• Less depression and anxiety

• Longer life expectancy

• Improved cognitive function

• Better overall health

• Stronger family relationships

• Greater connection to community

We invite you to experience the benefits of being part of a church family. Visit us this Sunday at Christian Life Center.

OUR STAFF

We look forward to meeting you, learning how we can minister to you, and how we can help you grow in your faith and relationship

with Jesus Christ.

WORD FROM THE WORD

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6:12) ESV

If you watch the news or scroll through social media lately, you'd be inundated with videos, stories, and postings filled with violence, profanity, and people at each other's throats. It seems we've lost the ability to disagree about anything and cheerfully walk away from debating those with other views. These days people actually call for those with opposing views to be intimidated, hurt, or even killed. The more of this we see on our screens, the easier it is to be dragged into feelings of anger, frustration, fear and depression - and these are right out of Satan's toolbox. They work to drive feelings of even more anger

We'd do well to keep the verse above in our minds. All the rage and violence is driven by Satan and his demons in their quest to destroy us. They are the real enemy, not those who've unknowingly fallen into the devil's trap of perpetual rage and anxiety. To respond to people out of anger and frustration of our own would only intensify the cycle, which is ultimately dangerous to all involved.

Jesus told us to love God and love others, to treat other people the way that we want to be treated. If everyone did that, you'd be amazed how quickly our lives, and that of our nation, would be transformed. So let's all try to step back, take a deep breath, and make the conscious decision to be ambassadors of peace. Jesus said, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God." (Matthew 5:9) And the apostle Paul wrote, "If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all people." (Romans 12:18)

Make Satan angry for a change. Don't fall into his evil. Serve the Prince of Peace, and when you feel anxious about the world around you remember, "Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, in every situation, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God. And the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7)
