Do you understand the Trinity?  Why does God have three persons?  I don’t think anyone fully does.  The Book of Acts gives us some clues.  It shows us clearly a significant purpose of the Holy Spirit- Christ in YOU!  Check out Acts 4. 32-35 – and join us this Sunday. If you would like to talk further about any of these thoughts, I’d love to get together with you.  Please give me a call. Don Creasman 519-5556 Joy the Book Club for a Movie– The movie times are out and I’d love anybody and everybody to join me in seeing the Help this Sunday at 4:00 at Daly City theater.  Please pass the invitation on to anybody else as well!  If you want to let me know you’ll be there, I can save seats for you!  Can’t wait! Keen Golden Gate Fellowship supporters: I wanted to share with you some good news about the financial state of GGF.  Through the end of July, we as a community are at a nearly break even point for the year.  This trend is a turn around from our giving in 2010, where we were loosing money at a fairly rapid pace.  Thank you for being faithful in you giving and support of Golden Gate Fellowship.  As always, anyone who would like a closer look at our finances, or would like to discuss in further detail, please feel free to contact me.
