Praying for Rain
In a time of constant violence, uncertainty, crazy inflation, identity politics, it can seem as if the world is in a drought. In all areas of life, especially spiritually.

Latter RAIN Prayers? Join us at church this Sabbath to journey into this Story and…
You Are…
There are two “You Are” statements in Matthew. They are echoed in Mark and Luke. These two statements speak to our Identity and our Mission. Jesus said, You Are the Salt and You Are the Light. Here is our call to add flavor and healing to our community while showing the way out of darkness. Scripture: Matthew 5:13-16 “You Are…” preached by Pastor Don Bryan on July 2nd, 2022 at the Mount Vernon Seventh-day Adventist Church in Mount Vernon, Washington
Beginning With the End in Mind
In the upper room at the last supper, when Jesus told His disciples that He would not drink from the fruit of the vine until He drank it anew in the Kingdom of God, was He picturing His future glory? Did He see the redeemed from all ages standing victorious before the throne? Did He see the table full of His friends at the marriage supper of the Lamb? Come and see!

Daisy-Petal Christianity
He Loves me, He Love me not. Ever feel like your walk with God is like pulling Daisy Petals from the flower hoping and praying that the last petal is… He Loves me? From the Bible we learn that we do not have to depend upon a flower to forecast out faith/love journey with Jesus. Scripture makes it clear, God is LOVE and therefore, responds in love to all His creation. Come check it out this coming Sabbath. Scripture: 1…
The Search is On
Since the garden, God has been on a search and rescue mission. He constantly searches for lost people (i.e. sheep). Yet He yearns to search deep within our hearts to rewire, recalibrate, reengineer us. Will you join with the HERO’s of scripture and allow God access to your heart?
