COME SING WITH THE AVPC 15-MINUTE CHOIR (AUGUST 7) |
|
Come rehearse a classic hymn anthem (“Wonderful Grace of Jesus”) in the choir room from 10:40 – 10:55 AM on Sunday, August 7, then sing that anthem with the choir in the LATE SERVICE. (Note: the choir will exit the choir loft before the sermon so that singers can sit with the congregation for the sermon. Or people attending the early service can stick around to sing the late service anthem, then go home after the choir sings.) You don’t have to sign up. JUST SHOW UP THAT MORNING! Music links are provided on the church website (www.avpc.org) if you want to learn your music in advance on your own.

During the fellowship brunch this Sunday, you will have another chance to get your picture taken for the directory, so smile and take advantage of this opportunity…it’s painless and will be over before you know it. See you at the brunch.

PRAYER MINISTRY TEAM
The Prayer Ministry Team would like to encourage you in your prayer life, both personally and corporately, and are inviting you to join others who gather during both morning worship services, to pray for the service as it is being held. You can choose which service you would like to pray for, and how often. This is a great chance to be involved in the life of our church, in a very non-threatening, welcoming environment. Whether you are praying silently or aloud is not important – the desire is to move us towards having a culture of prayer at AVPC. If you are interested in learning more, please contact Steve Barley at steven.barley28@gmail.com, or call the church offices.
