Come along on the journey of the Greatest Story Ever Told… from the beginning…to the world without end.  We will start in Genesis and end in Revelation asking God to reveal Himself to us along the way - to open our hearts and minds to a greater understanding of His love, mercy and His gracious offer of redemption and hope.

Lent Small Group Launch | Sun, Feb 19

One of the best ways to get connected at Heritage is through a small group. 

As we begin the Lenten Season, we will be forming Lenten Small Groups that will have a definite start date, along with a definite ending date.  This allows you to be a part of a group, and to determine if it is a group you would like to join.  Some groups decide to stay together, and some end after Lent.  This year the groups will meet between February 25 and April 15 for fellowship, prayer and discussion based on the weekend’s sermons.

The Lent Small Group Launch is Sunday, February 19 at 12:30, right after the 11am service in Room 230 (Children’s Ministry Wing).  Lunch is provided and children are welcome.  We hope you can join us.
