Too often, the world makes us feel like we’re just a face in the crowd. But this week in our Essential series, Pastor Willie is unpacking Genesis 16 and the story of Hagar to remind us of a profound truth: To God, nobody is a nobody.

He is El Roi—the God who sees you.

In case you haven't heard, we've started work on the updated version of the Patio Project! Construction started on the concrete and they will finish the work soon. With that said, the front entrance to the café will be closed this Sunday, and the patio area directly in front of the café will be blocked off to protect the construction area. Please continue reading the Bulletin to get more updates on the patio and how you can help out.

These are highlights of upcoming Next Steps & Events. See the full calendar and more at www.cwcmv.org/events.
