Shamar has been working closely with the design team and building contractor to lay out a prayer garden at our new church. There will be a few trees, walkways, desert friendly plants and a dry riverbed. Funds are limited and we are relying on volunteers and donations to help make this a beautiful and peaceful area surrounding the building. We are collecting several items for recycling that will help earn money for the project. Please bring any of these items to the church on Sundays. There is a collection box in the gathering room. Clean out your office at work and home to find these valuable recyclables: ink cartridges. cell phones, ipods, laptops, toner cartridges.

SHAMAR Creation Stewardship |
|
|
|
|
Written by Nathan Phinney

Overview
The focus of Shamar ministry is to celebrate God as an amazing Creator and reach people for Christ who love creation but do not know God as creator and Lord. We can serve and honor God by being good stewards of what He has made. The Bible is clear about God's care for his creation and all creation sings His praises (Psalm 145:9, Psalm 148). Everything in all creation belongs to the Lord (Psalm 95:4-5). To serve the Lord by being good stewards of His creation, we have created Shamar, a creation stewardship ministry. Shamar is a Hebrew word that means "to keep, guard, observe, sustain, give heed". For example, this ministry maintains recycling programs at the church, organizes clean-up events in the community and surrounding natural areas, shares God's love with others who love His creation but do not know Him, conducts educational programs about God's creation, partners with local animals rescues, and so much more. If God has gifted you with a passion for nature, animals. and people we would love for your to be a part of this ministry. If you are interested in joining our group, please email
