First Sunday is this Sunday, so we really will have Holy Communion.
I know most of you got a good chuckle at my mistake last week. It wasn't my first and sure won't be my last. But this coming Sunday, I have been assured is really the first Sunday of the month, which means Holy Communion and I CAN Food offering.
Marie Smith who delivers our offering to UCO, said it was a God Send. More people then ever are needing help, so Praise Be to God that one of our ways our church provides ministry is the offering of a few can goods and staple items to help out others. So come prepared this First Sunday to offer again if all possible with this vital ministry.
Our Preschool Ministries is currently looking for a 2 year-old teacher. If you love them and have had some experience working with young children, whether volunteer or paid, please prayerfully consider becoming a part of our preschool team. This is a 5-day a week position where you can help children learn and while doing so, play all day long! For additional information or for any questions you may have, please call Kim Havard at 988-3962 or 278-2340.
My message this week is on another of the Powerful Parables of Jesus, the parable of the Empty House.
Upcoming events:
August 14 - Church Council and Trustees Meeting
August 20 - Mandatory Acolyte Training
September 7 - First Wednesday Night Dinner and Covenant Academy - classes on Marriage Relationships, Book of Revelations, and Get Fit.
Finally - It appears as if the deadline for some type of resolution to the impass at Congress may happen today. I don't really know how I feel about it, doubt if it does anything close to what needed to be done, but it certainly reminded us of how difficult it is to make the tough decisions. Pray for Our Congress, our President and for our Nation.
Sunday, someone asked me to pray because they were to have some medical procedure this week and I know I said, please write it down because I can't remember a thing someone tells me on Sunday, with all the conversations I have. So please if it is you or you know someone having a medical procedure this week, please let me know by emailing me back. Thanks.
Sincerely,
