The Ramapo Valley Baptist Church is pleased to announce that it will kick off its fall season on Sunday, September 13, 2015 with a very special service featuring chalk artist Cathy Patnovic sharing her talents in black-light chalk artistry.
The service will start at 10:45 AM featuring Cathy as she creates a chalk drawing while she shares a story. Following the service, the church will kick off its new Sunday School year with a Rally Day Celebration for the kids. Once again Cathy Patnovic will share a special chalk art drawing and story for the kids.
Cathy Patnovic was born and brought up in the Netherlands where she, as a teenager, accepted Christ as her Savior. She came to the United States at the age of 20 where she pursued a nursing career though she is now retired. During her nurses’ training, she departed from the Lord’s will and ways for about 14 years which resulted in drug addiction, alcoholism and an aimless existence. Through God’s marvelous grace, He restored her soul as the words of Psalm 51 became a reality in her life. She now lives in Newark, DE, and shares the love of Christ through her art.
The Ramapo Valley Baptist Church is a family church. All our programs and outreach are designed for families to participate together in worship, fellowship and mission. Worship is upbeat and exciting, and children are welcomed to share in the worship service. Preaching, teaching and programs are all aimed at making the truths of the Bible relevant in our everyday lives. Our hope is to challenge each person to show the love of Christ at home, at work, at school and in the community.
