An Invitation from Pastor Paul
|
Last Sunday, I announced my intention to return to a passion and love of mine. For many of my 24 years in ministry I have taught
Disciple Bible Study.
I have taught the study in churches, homes and in prison! In all my years of ministry experiences, nothing has led to more personal transformation than this study.
|
|
It is a BIG commitment. The study is 34 weeks. We will meet for 1 hour and 45 minutes each week. There is home work. It requires copious amounts of reading. But, the results are amazing. Completing
Disciple 1 will give you a framework of understanding the Bible, and in understanding the Bible, you will be confronted by the Spirit of God and be transformed.
We plan to begin on Wednesday, August 29 with an orientation, and begin classes on September 5. The hours are planned to be from 6:30-8:15. The cost of the book is $20 (can be ordered through Amazon,
Becoming a Disciple Through Bible Study, 2nd edition
). We will need a minimum of 12 people to make a class. Please let me know if you are interested.
Would you pray about this? If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I would love to talk with you further. You won’t regret this journey!
Paul B. Thompson

MusiKids (ages 4 through 5th grade)
Sunday Evenings
September 9 – November 11
4:00 – 5:00
This fall, during our regular Sunday evening children’s programming, the Music Department will be implementing a new and exciting program for the children.
We are incorporating a comprehensive children’s music curriculum called “Growing in Grace,” a curriculum in which all songs are carefully written to ensure they are developmentally appropriate for the child, both theologically and musically. The lessons include vocal techniques to help the student develop his or her natural singing skills, music theory to increase musical knowledge, and scriptural concepts ingrained in each song to encourage spiritual growth. Additional activities are used weekly to guide children in connecting music with worship.
The students will demonstrate their newfound skills with the use of rhythm instruments, keyboard and hand bells. There will be opportunities for Christ-centered presentations as well.
What a privilege it is to have available, a place where our children will grow in God’s grace while becoming creative, hands-on musicians. This fall’s theme is called Fruit of the Spirit. Parents, we urge you to enroll your child at your earliest convenience, through Ms. Pam Hegedus or Ms. Karen Terpenning.
