Church guide

We were so blessed to have our Global Ministry Partners here with us this past weekend! Pastor Miguel from Costa Rica, Pastors Khalil and Rhonda from Jordan, and Pastor Kabwe from Zambia. If you are looking for ways to help support them as well as many of the other global ministry partners from around the world you can start by spending time in prayer for them! You can pray for: - their health & safety - that God gives them guidance - for their ministries and the people it reaches If you feel called to support our Global Partners by giving monetarily, all donations received at www.willowcreek.org/cohgive will go directly to help their ministries.

Where we are weak, He is strong. Where do you need the Spirit’s help today?

Our 7-year-old has already asked when she can begin to serve in Promiseland herself, which is so rewarding to observe as a parent!" - Gina Gina serves in the Kindergarten and 1st-grade room in Promiseland on Saturday nights as a room coach where she is responsible for guiding the volunteer team as well as shepherding all of the kids each service! Thank you, Gina and all of the Promiseland volunteers, for using your gifts to nurture and teach the children of Willow!

“The thrill of the hunt was always better than the treasure.” Most things in life are like that. The payoff doesn’t live up to the anticipation, or doesn’t live very long. But Jesus talks about a treasure that surpasses our expectations, that truly satisfies. And a treasure that you never quite find the end of. X Marks the Spot.
