Good evening dear friends,

 

This Sunday will be our “4th Sunday” weekend. That means that we will have a more traditional service at 9:00 am and our Family Service at 10:30 am. The Itty-Bitty Choir and the “new” Joyful Noise Choir will both be singing during our time of worship at the 10:30 service. We will host a lunch after worship of pizza and salad. Bring a donation to help defray the costs of the fellowship time.

 

Our theme for the 9:00 am service continues along the line of our series on the book of Philippians. We will look at Philippians 2: 12-18 as we respond, “I’m Gonna Let My Light Shine!” At the 10:30 service we will learn more about the “Baby Moses.” Either way, you will have an enriching worship experience!

 

Thank you church for supporting through prayer and donations, the Marriage Course. Fourteen couples are being blessed by this ministry and it comes because of your support and through the power of prayer. This coming week is the 6th of 7 lessons, and we will be serving Mediterranean Chicken on White Bean Mash with Roasted Broccoli as a side. Dessert will be Patti’s chocolate chip cookies and some apple slices.

 

Women, remember to sign up for the Aspire Conference. And a reminder for all that we encourage and invite you to sign up for serving during worship – readers, communion servers – ushers – A/V team – fellowship… We all need you and your help! Thank you!!!
