No Student Services on October 6
This Sunday, October 6, there will be no student services at the Normal Campus. Instead, students will be joining the adult services, where Pastors Brandon Grant and Zach Thompson will speak on how Jesus modeled community. We believe this is a great opportunity for all of us, including students, to come together and hear this important message.
To make space for the students to sit together, we kindly ask those who normally sit in the stage left section (from the center) to find another seat for this service. Our Deaf Community will remain seated in their usual area. Thank you for your understanding!
New to the Bloomington Campus?
If you are new to the Bloomington Campus, please come to the Welcome Center to introduce yourself and to receive a gift we have for you before you leave today. We are so glad you are here and would love to meet you! You can find more information about our campus HERE.
Connections Event
We're officially 3 weeks into our all-church study, Practicing Jesus! If you're new or yet to sign up for a group, no worries! We'd love to get you plugged in.

Care Groups
Did you know Eastview offers Care Groups? Care Groups are supportive small groups that are designed to provide emotional and spiritual growth to individuals walking through a variety of life circumstances. Everyone has hurts or hang ups. It is in these broken times in our lives that we have the opportunity to turn to God and others for support and healing. Care Groups are communities where healing begins. To learn more, click HERE.

Young Adult Gathering
Our Young Adult Gatherings are a great space to connect with our young adult community while engaging in worship and teaching related to this stage of life and cultural moment.

For questions contact, Pastor of Young Adults, Josh Jacobs, at jjacobs@eastview.church.
Info Center Volunteer Opportunity
When a person walks into a church service, we never know their back story...did their spouse divorce them this week? Did a loved one die yesterday? Did they get fired and are coming to see if God has anything to say about life...or are they feeling suicidal today? Greeting and welcoming people is such a blessing and opportunity!
We are in need of volunteers for the 2nd and 4th Sunday's at the 11:00am service, both upper and lower levels, and for 5th Sunday's. Contact Frank Beaty for more information.
