Durango Christian Church Sunday Bulletin
Are You New?
Welcome
We are honored that you have chosen to worship with us today. We invite you to relax and enjoy the worship service.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask a greeter or usher. Our elders will also be available after each service to visit with you, and to answer any questions you may have.
Communion, offering and baptism
It is our practice to observe the Lord’s Supper (Communion) each Lord’s Day. The bread and juice that is distributed during the service is a reminder of Christ’s body and blood offered up on the Cross as a sacrifice for sin. Jesus himself instituted this act of worship and commanded that we do this in remembrance of him whenever we come together.
Every Sunday we include an offering as a component of our worship. This ministry operates completely out of the generosity of its members. If you are a guest today, please do not feel pressure or obligated to give.
We practice baptism by immersion and you may see a baptism today. Baptism is a picture of Christ’s death, burial and resurrection. It is a way for us to identify with Him as followers. Please let us know if you have any questions, or if you would like to schedule a baptism.
Nursery & Children’s Church
We offer nursery care for infants and toddlers. Our nursery is open 15 minutes before the beginning of each service to give you adequate time to check your children in and meet the nursery workers.
For pre-schoolers and elementary age students we have a Children’s church that will begin about 30 minutes into the service. When it is time, children will be dismissed and escorted to Children’s Church.

A New KIND of KINGDOM
Week 2: A New Kind Of Righteousness
Week 2: A New Kind Of Righteousness
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19 Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:17-20, ESV)
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. (Romans 10:4, ESV)
6 as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to righteousness under the law, blameless. 7 But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. 8 Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ 9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith— (Philippians 3:6-9 ESV)
