Welcome! We’re so glad you’ve chosen to worship with us this morning! During the singing and praying, please feel free to stand, sit, kneel, raise your hands, etc. as you feel comfortable. During the service this morning, we’ll worship God by contributing to an offering. If you feel led to participate, you may place your offering in the collection plate, put it in the offering box at the back of the sanctuary, or give online. New Here? We’re honored that you’ve chosen to worship with us this morning! If you haven’t already received a Welcome Packet, please stop by the Connection Corner outside the worship center and pick one up. We would also like to give you a free book, How Not To Miss God Moving. The friendly folks at the Connection Corner can tell you about upcoming New Member Classes as well as answer any questions you have about Ridgeline.

Either way, we invite you to an informal Q&A session with Pastor Craig on either (or both) today at 4pm, or Tuesday, March 24th at 7pm. At the opening of each session, Pastor Craig will discuss his vision for Ridgeline and where he believes God is leading, and then we will have an open Q&A time. Come with questions or words or encouragement! Good Friday Multi-Church Service Mark your calendars now for a multichurch Good Friday service. Ridgeline will be joining with Faith Lutheran, Restoration Church and Front Range Christian Church at 6:30pm on Fri, Apr 3rd to remember the sacrifice of Jesus and to prepare ourselves for the celebration of His resurrection that Easter Sunday. The service will take place outside on the Ridgeline field, weather permitting, or inside the Ridgeline sanctuary if necessary. Plan on joining us for this special event! Boxes for Mavuno Market: The Stuckys will soon be moving to the mountains to start a new beginning. They were the movement behind collecting cereal boxes for Haiti.

Please contact Lisa Stucky or visit www.mavunomarket.org/cereal-boxes-for-haiti. Men of Ridgeline, Are you looking to get involved with a group of guys with similar interests?

This Week’s Scripture - Mark 1:14-20 (NIV) Jesus Drives Out an Impure Spirit 21 They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. 22 The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law. 23 Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an impure spirit cried out, 24 “What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are— the Holy One of God!” 25 “Be quiet!” said Jesus sternly. “Come out of him!” 26 The impure spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek. 27 The people were all so amazed that they asked each other, “What is this? A new teaching—and with authority! He even gives orders to impure spirits and they obey him.” 28 News about him spread quickly over the whole region of Galilee.
