What a wonderful time we had in worship on this past Sunday. Both 8 a.m. and 11:15 services were great! We had the pleasure of having our Episcopal Leader, Bishop Sue Haurpert-Johnson, with us. What a joy it was to have her bring greetings and then lead us in the Sacrament of Holy Communion.
October is off to a great start, and there is much more to come. So, the following is just as a reminder of what you can expect:
Sunday, October 9 | 90th Church Anniversary at 8:00 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. Bishop James Swanson, Sr. will be our guest preacher at both services.
Sunday, October 16 | ONE Worship Service at 10:00 a.m. Church Picnic to follow
Food, Games, Fun and Fellowship will be the order of the day.
Sunday, October 23 | Laity Sunday at 8:00 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. We will celebrate Laity
Cascade's Lay Leader, Ms. Cyde Creagh, will be our speaker.
Sunday, October 30 | 5th Sunday worship at 8:00 a.m. and 11:15 a.m.
Pastor Joyce E. Banks-Gross will be our preacher for the day.
In addition to the exciting times we will have in worship, on Tuesday, October 18 at 7:00 p.m., we have our annual Church/Charge Conference. Our District Superintendent, Dr. Bernice W. Kirkland, will preside. This is an exciting time for the church leadership to reflect on the past and project towards the future.
I also want to share two preaching engagements for this month. You are invited to join us at Providence Missionary Baptist Church on October 12 for Fall Revival at 7:00 p.m. and the other is at Red Oak UMC in Stockbridge on Sunday, October 23 at 3:00 pm for their 150
th
Church Anniversary Celebration.
Be assured, I look forward to sharing with you at all of the activities scheduled.
Blessings,
Pastor Lawrence L. Young
