MAKE SPACE | Week 6
Chances are, your calendar is already full. School projects, training camps, a new job or a new baby. We are forced to make space in our calendar for a lot of pressing things. In fact, many of us want to grow closer to God yet just don’t have the room. But as a church, we have a conviction that making space for God is the most important thing you can do for your life, your marriage/singleness, and your family this fall.
Step by step, we are going to follow Israel through the wilderness and make space for God to move in our lives again.

Key Passages:
Exodus 29::1-9
1“This is what you are to do to consecrate them, so they may serve me as priests: Take a young bull and two rams without defect. 2 And from the finest wheat flour make round loaves without yeast, thick loaves without yeast and with olive oil mixed in, and thin loaves without yeast and brushed with olive oil. 3 Put them in a basket and present them along with the bull and the two rams. 4 Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance to the tent of meeting and wash them with water. 5 Take the garments and dress Aaron with the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod itself and the breastpiece. Fasten the ephod on him by its skillfully woven waistband. 6 Put the turban on his head and attach the sacred emblem to the turban. 7 Take the anointing oil and anoint him by pouring it on his head. 8 Bring his sons and dress them in tunics 9 and fasten caps on them. Then tie sashes on Aaron and his sons.[a] The priesthood is theirs by a lasting ordinance.
“Then you shall ordain Aaron and his sons.
