Ladies Night is fun, but aren’t you ready for something a little deeper? Everyone should experience the intimacy shared and the lifelong friendships that are developed during a Bible study. This summer, Shoreline is offering two Bible studies just for ladies. Barbara will lead one on Monday nights using Kay Arthur material. Darlene and I (Lori) will co-lead one on Thursday mornings using Joyce Meyer material. I encourage you to attend the one that works best with your schedule and let this be the summer you take it to the next level, both spiritually and relationally.
Shoreline Church’s first home church is about to become a reality over 2,800 miles away from Destin. The Coast Guard is relocating the Alley family to Astoria, Oregon. They leave tomorrow to travel across the country. While preparing to move the past few months, Justin and Jana searched for a church online. As they became frustrated at so few prospects, they began to think about bringing Shoreline with them. Several meetings and conversations with Pastor Eric later, it’s official: Shoreline will soon have a home church! Please pray for the Alley family and the people in Astoria as they set out on this new adventure.

On May 4, Shoreline Church had a picnic and baptism at Henderson Beach State Park. The weather was beautiful, but not as beautiful as watching people make a public declaration of their decision to follow Christ!
