A Yard at a Time

Last Sunday we introduced our next building project: replacing the carpet throughout much of Real Life.

We’re going to tackle it a yard at a time. The project works out to about $32 per square yard, and we’ll purchase and install the carpet section by section as funds are available. We’re starting with the Fellowship and Family rooms.

If you’d like to help, you can give toward one yard, five yards, ten yards—or any amount. Every gift helps us improve the spaces where people gather, worship, learn, build relationships, and follow Jesus together.

We’ve already received enough to cover 14 square yards! A yard at a time, we can cover a lot of ground.

Help Us Cover A Lot Of Ground

This Week's Message

"El Shaddai"
Pastor Corey • Exodus 3:1-15, 6:2-8, 20:1-2

After years of waiting, Abram and Sarai attempt to secure God’s promise through Hagar. They do not abandon the promise; they take control of its method. Their plan produces Ishmael, but it also produces pain and consequences they cannot manage.

When God appears again, He identifies Himself as El Shaddai—the God who knows when something has reached its proper limit. God gives Abram and Sarai new names, establishes the covenant sign, names Isaac before he is conceived, and sets the time of his birth.

God promises to bless Ishmael, but He does not allow Abraham’s preferred solution to redefine the covenant. Faith trusts God not only to provide, but to determine when enough is enough.

Can’t be here in person on Sunday?

Student Ministry

Find everything you need to know about what's going on for students here at Real Life!

Every week during the school year our youth walk into Student Life carrying school pressure and big questions about who they are. For a few hours, they enter a place where they are known and reminded that they matter to God.

And the first thing they do is sit around the table and share a meal. But it’s more than just feeding their bodies, it’s providing them with a sense of belonging. As they eat they talk, they laugh, they share... and they grow closer together.

You don’t have to be in the room to make an impact. You can prepare a meal, join the meal rotation, or give money to help others prepare the meal.

When you feed students, you’re not just filling plates—you’re creating space for God to work.

Use the link below to provide a meal or contribute financially this school year.

Help Create a Place Through a Plate

Prayer Team:

This may be the most important thing that happens on Sunday mornings. Our prayer team meets at 9:30 in the Family Room and prays for YOU, the Sunday service, our volunteers, staff, guests and for transformation as we strive to look more like Jesus ever day.

If you have a prayer request please let us know!
For more information email Ray

Blanket Ministry Team:

Our blanket ministry provides blankets as a physical display of God’s love when needed most. Blankets are donated to those in the hospital or baby blankets are delivered to Branches Pregnancy Centers and other organizations.

If you’d like to help make blankets or want info email Jessica Pyle.
If you’d like to stop and pray over the blankets we have they are in the Family Room

Care Team:

Our Care Team meets with individuals following the service who are seeking prayer or wanting to take their next step with Jesus. If you’re good with people and have a heart to pray with and walk with people in that moment when God is stirring in their heart this might be a great ministry opportunity for you.

For more information email Terry

Cleaning Team:

This team helps us create a clean and welcoming environment for our guests and regulars who come to the building each week. A clean church shows our thankfulness for what God has provided and removes stumbling blocks to those we welcome to worship every Sunday and throughout the week.

If you’d like to join this group email Corey and we’ll get you the details.

We’ve got to fill space for one of our cleaning volunteers for the rest of the year due to a coming surgery. If you’ve got some time and could help fill the schedule on Sept 27 and Nov 15 we’d love to have you! Let Corey know if you can cover the dates for us.

Cleaning Schedule:

September:

06 - Pam Kretz
13 - Pyles
20 - Tristen Moore
27 - ?? - Could you fill in for Erin who had surgery? Also need to cover Nov 15.

🛄 Hungry? We have a FOOD PANTRY:
The Food Pantry is available to anyone at Real Life who may need help with a meal or more between paychecks or when struggling for various reasons. If you’d like to pick up a meal or two (or want to know more about this ministry) let pastor Corey know after the service.

Community Prayer

Please remember Erin who had surgery 8 days ago. Paul and Spider are dealing with excessive pain - Paul will have shoulder surgery soon.
Robbin and Shirley have been without AC for several weeks, we need cooler temps and rain.
Pray for the LifeGroups starting back up this month
Pray that God would stir hearts to serve to help our kids learn about Jesus on their level, our students build their own faith and our church be a place where God forms people into full developed followers of Jesus.
Pray for God’s provision as we work to finish some of the projects still undone around our building. Pray for safety for everyone who comes through our doors. For the ministries that happen here each week, and for Real Life to continue being a place where relationships are formed, people are known and loved, and where we learn to follow Jesus more faithfully together.

Submit your prayer request here

Your generosity helps fund the mission and ministries God has called us to here at Real Life. Thank You for giving!

New to our community? No pressure. Today, just be our guest.

Give to God at Real Life Here

Fellowship Room Update:

Would you like to help? If you’re able to help with the masonry work, or hanging ceiling grid and want to just come down and work on it when you have time we’d love the help! Talk to Corey about what you can do and when and we’ll get it set up.

We are down to a few projects left to complete.

Masonry work on East Wall
~~Painting the newly completed drywall work~~
~~Drop ceiling removed in South part of room~~
Drop ceiling installed in South part of room and along West wall
~~New carpet is being chosen - lead time is 6-7 weeks~~
New carpet installed
~~Electrical fixed in South part of room~~

Kids Ministry - Age-specific programming during the service each Sunday BACK TO SCHOOL BASH: Make plans to hang out with us after Church this Sunday for free food and fun for the whole family! Bring your bag chairs, canopies and a towel or change of clothes. Upcoming Events: New Message Series begins this Sunday — The Names of God is a five week series exploring how God makes Himself known through the names and descriptions He reveals in Scripture. Each name shows us more of His character and calls us to respond to Him with trust, surrender, belonging, and faithfulness. 2 Women’s LifeGroups will begin on Sept 9th one in the morning at 10a and one in the evening at 6:30p - check out the women’s ministry posts for more info. The BEMA LifeGroup will begin meeting again on Sept 16 at 6:30p. FOR THOSE WHO TAKE HAVERHILL ROAD: Due to the turnaround at the refinery Haverhill road will be closed to through traffic from 5-7:30 am/pm every day from Sept 12 - Oct 19. This may primarily affect those coming during the week for lifegroups or studentlife events. We’ve got a pretty big building project we’re getting ready to tackle—and we’re going to do it a yard at a time. I’ll tell you more Sunday. Join us Sunday right after worship for our Real Life Back-to-School Bash! Real Life has grown this summer, and we don’t just want to recognize familiar faces —we want to actually know the people God has placed around us. After all, if we’re going to be formed together in His Kingdom, we need relationships with the people in it. So stick around after church for lunch, water, games, and a little friendly chaos. We’ll have hamburgers and hot dogs, chips, watermelon and plenty of water, plus a water inflatable for the younger kids, water balloons, and some seriously wet kickball or wiffle ball. There’s nothing complicated about it. Eat together. Play together. Laugh together. Get to know somebody you don’t know yet. Whether you’ve been part of Real Life for years or you just found us this summer, we’d love for you to stay and spend some time with us. This Week's Message "YAHWEH" Pastor Corey • Exodus 3:1-15, 6:2-8, 20:1-2 When Moses asks God’s name, he is being sent into a situation he cannot control and carrying a calling he does not believe he can fulfill. God does not answer by building Moses’ confidence in himself. He reveals Himself as Yahweh—the God who is not defined, sustained, or controlled by anything outside Himself. Yet the God who needs nothing sees Israel’s suffering, hears their cries, remembers His covenant, comes down to rescue them, and promises Moses, “I will be with you.” Moses keeps asking, “Who am I?” God answers by revealing who He is.

This Week's Message "The Slow Fade" Pastor Corey • Revelation 2:12-17, Numbers 22-25, 31:16 Most of us don’t wake up one day and decide to reject God. The danger is usually quieter than that. In the final week of iDols, we’ll look at Jesus’ warning to the church in Pergamum and the strange story of Balaam and Israel. Together they show us how divided allegiance can grow slowly—through the things we tolerate, justify, and eventually begin to see as normal. Idolatry doesn’t require us to reject God. Sometimes it simply asks us to make room for something else beside Him.

Kids Ministry - Age-specific programming during the service each Sunday Upcoming Events Pizza with the Pastor, August 23rd following morning worship (find out more below) Back-To-School Bash, August 30th following the morning worship service. Make plans to hang out with the Real Life family after church for hot-dogs, hamburgers and fun! Be watching for information on lifegroups right here in the Weekly Update as school kicks off our groups will be close behind! Are you New at Real Life? Take the next step. Join us for Pizza with the Pastor—a relaxed meal where you'll hear the story of Real Life from pastor Corey, have time to ask questions and discover how you can get connected. We'd love to save you a seat.Register for Pizza 🍕 Here Join us Sunday, August 30th, right after worship for our Real Life Back-to-School Bash! Real Life has grown this summer, and we don’t just want to recognize familiar faces —we want to actually know the people God has placed around us. After all, if we’re going to be formed together in His Kingdom, we need relationships with the people in it. So stick around after church for lunch, water, games, and a little friendly chaos. We’ll have hamburgers and hot dogs, chips, watermelon and plenty of water, plus a water inflatable for the younger kids, water balloons, and some seriously wet kickball or wiffle ball. There’s nothing complicated about it. Eat together. Play together. Laugh together. Get to know somebody you don’t know yet. Whether you’ve been part of Real Life for years or you just found us this summer, we’d love for you to stay and spend some time with us. This Week's Message "Whose Are You?" Pastor Corey • This week, we look at Peter’s encounter with Cornelius in Acts 10. Peter expected the outsider to be the one who needed to change, but God used Cornelius to confront Peter’s own understanding of who belonged, who was worthy, and how big God’s Kingdom really is. Our theology, traditions, politics, culture, church background, and even our understanding of truth can become idols when we give them an authority that belongs only to Jesus. Following Jesus is not only about believing the right things. It is about becoming more like Him in the way we see and love people—recognizing that they are not projects, opponents, or outsiders, but people already loved by the Father.

We’re working on a system, much like this Weekly Update, where you can discover what’s going on in the Women’s Ministry (and soon more) in one place and even get emails when a new post has been uploaded.Find Out More Here Our Student Ministry for youth in grades 6-12 will kick off August 19th at 6:30p here at the Church. Our students have been meeting in the Welcome Center - but our hope is that later this Fall they can begin meeting in the Fellowship Room. While it will be a multi-purpose room for LifeKids, LifeGroups and Events, we also hope it will become a place for our students to grow closer to Jesus and each other. A safe space for them to discover, discuss and dig into God’s word together and with Amber. If you have a minute this Sunday, walk by, or into, the Fellowship room and ask God to bless our students and leaders this year and as they grow to live, love and look more like Jesus every day. Every week during the school year our youth walk into Student Life carrying school pressure and big questions about who they are. For a few hours, they enter a place where they are known and reminded that they matter to God. And the first thing they do is sit around the table and share a meal. But it’s more than just feeding their bodies, it’s providing them with a sense of belonging. As they eat they talk, they laugh, they share... and they grow closer together. You don’t have to be in the room to make an impact. You can prepare a meal, join the meal rotation, or give money to help others prepare the meal. When you feed students, you’re not just filling plates—you’re creating space for God to work. Use the link below to provide a meal or contribute financially this school year.Help Create a Place Through a Plate Prayer Team: This may be the most important thing that happens on Sunday mornings. Our prayer team meets at 9:30 in the Family Room and prays for YOU, the Sunday service, our volunteers, staff, guests and for transformation as we strive to look more like Jesus ever day. If you have a prayer request please let us know! For more information email Ray Blanket Ministry Team: Our blanket ministry provides blankets as a physical display of God’s love when needed most. Blankets are donated to those in the hospital or baby blankets are delivered to Branches Pregnancy Centers and other organizations. If you’d like to help make blankets or want info email Jessica Pyle. If you’d like to stop and pray over the blankets we have they are in the Family Room Care Team: Our Care Team meets with individuals following the service who are seeking prayer or wanting to take their next step with Jesus. If you’re good with people and have a heart to pray with and walk with people in that moment when God is stirring in their heart this might be a great ministry opportunity for you.

Be watching for information on lifegroups right here in the Weekly Update as school kicks off our groups will be close behind! Note from Pastor Corey: Wasn’t it amazing last Sunday seeing 21 kids from VBS leading us in worship through the songs they learned? We actually had 27 kids on our biggest evening during VBS but vacations and other plans meant some of the kids weren’t able to make it on Sunday. But here’s something else I noticed Sunday, there were more kids in the audience! The 21 on stage weren’t all the kids we have. I don’t know if you are aware but our nursery (birth - 3) has been in the double digits 7 out of the last 9 weeks, that’s amazing! But it’s also challenging. With more people, especially very little people, one adult volunteer can no longer manage even with help from our students. Amber just informed me that she needs 4 NEW volunteers to keep the nursery running and safe. Serving in this capacity is not a life-sentance or even an every-Sunday obligation. But if you can love babies, change a diaper, and want our littlest people to have a positive view of church from the very beginning of their life we’d love to have you on the team.Serve at Real Life Are you New at Real Life?

They walked away from the fountain of living water and exhausted themselves digging broken cisterns that could never hold what they needed. The bronze serpent demonstrates how subtly that can happen. God had commanded Moses to make it, and God had used it to bring healing. But generations later, Israel was burning offerings to it. Something God had once used became something the people trusted and worshiped in God’s place. Most personal idols develop the same way. They are often good gifts—family, relationships, achievement, comfort, control, possessions, traditions, or even ministry—that gradually receive expectations and authority they were never meant to carry.

They bring school pressure, shifting friendships, and big questions about who they are. For a few hours, they enter a place where they are known, welcomed, fed, and reminded that they matter to God. The meal is a small part of the night, but it helps create that environment. Around the table, students slow down, connect, and begin to belong. It also removes a barrier for students who might otherwise stay home, while giving leaders more space to focus on relationships and discipleship. You don’t have to teach or lead a group to make an impact. You can prepare a meal, join the meal rotation, or give toward a meal, or many.

This week, we begin with the truth that human beings were created in the image of God to reflect Him within creation. Sin distorted that calling but did not remove it.
