s u n d ay, j a n u a r y 3 1 Meet fellow Peachtree people right in your neighborhood for a casual dessert gathering. The agenda is simple: enjoy a treat and new relationships. RSVP at: peachtreechurch.org/reddot Red Dot is an initiative to help connect Peachtree people to grow together and live the daily life of following Jesus. We believe that when we follow Christ, we’re called not just to attend church for an hour on Sunday, but for the gospel to impact our daily lives.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. — Proverbs 3:5–6
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. — Matthew 5:14 –16
