Message: The teaching time seeks to communicate biblical truth

in compelling, relevant ways. All of our messages are available
as podcast on our website www.estillnaz.org or through iTunes.

Response: When God is speaking, we take time to respond.

Most of the time this is after the message, but at other times it
may be in the middle of the service. An invitation is never needed
if you want to pray at the altar.
Communion: We take time monthly to celebrate Communion
and welcome all followers of Jesus Christ to participate in this act
of worship and remembrance regardless of membership or

MICAH 6:8 MINISTRY from Sandy Schefcik

Did You Know... there are pending three significant Supreme Court
cases that could have massive impact on religious liberty, life, and our
Constitution? One case involves the Executive overreach on
immigration. The second case is one of the most critical abortion cases
in the Supreme Court in decades, i.e., to defend a pro-life law that is
closing abortion clinics and saving thousands of unborn babies. The
third case in the Supreme Court is to defend the religious liberty of prolife ministries against the Obama Administration's abortion-pill
mandate.
