ALVERDA — Alverda Christian Church will convene for worship from 9:50 to 10:50 a.m. Sunday.

Father’s Day should cause reflection of examples that are set by Dad. Every child builds upon others’ experiences. Too often fathers are neglecting their place. Remember, society is “feeding” your children ideas, values and concepts — without your permission.

Children are lost to the church because parents have ceased to keep the church worship first.

Join Sunday’s service and participate in music, prayer, Communion, praise, fellowship and a message from God’s word.

Pastor Travis Trimble will deliver the morning message.
