This Week's

Ministry Focus

40 Days of Prayer!

Our Shepherds have called Westover to Forty Days of Prayer as we look forward to Floodgate Sunday on June 1st.  They not only wish to challenge us to be faithful and courageous in our stewardship, but to both seek God’s blessing on our varied ministries, and for this to be a time when our own spiritual lives are deepened.

Westover Food Drive THIS Sunday   

Everyone at Westover is challenged to boldly participate in the first major food drive of 2008!  Please prayerfully consider bringing as much as possible of the items listed to church on the 27th.  Use the first letter of your family's last name to determine what two type of items to bring.  Bags for the food will be passed out after services on Sunday, April 20th. Prior to Bible classes and worship service, we will have several men at the covered canopy entrance on the Mesa Dr. side of the building and we will unload the bags for all who would like help.  Just drive up and we will unload the bags from your car before you go park.
