SUNDAY, 6/8/14
Today’s Bible reading – 1 Kings 3:3-4:34 Acts 6:1-15 Psalm 126:1-6 Proverbs 16:26-27
We enjoyed a wonderful service in our “Saturday Celebration” last night. Kyle and the praise band did very well again. Bro. Chris shared a word about being followers of Jesus. The “great supper” seemed to be a hit as our attendance was our highest yet with 67 present.
Special thanks to Jeff Holifield & Ethan Nelson for being the chefs (I think Wes Holifield was in that number too), to Lindsey Vice for leading the “everything else” category for food, to each person who prepared a side or a dessert (even those who did not know what it was for i.e. Claire Turner), to Logan Wainwright for setting up, opening & closing, et cetera, to James Mareno for running the sound, to Gauge Holmes for bringing the most guests to the service, to the others who helped in any way. We saw at least nine new folks in that service – to God be the glory!
Regular schedule this morning and evening. Deacon nominations due today. Finance Committee meets at 4:00PM. Mission Committee meets at 5:00PM. GRACE team meets at 7:00PM.
Gift card shower for Rusty & Caryn today. Suitcase in the foyer of the auditorium to receive your gift cards.
I am so aggravated at myself. Mama always said, “if you want it done right, do it yourself!” I had appointed Amy Reynolds and Amy Switzer to promote the “pound the pantry” emphasis for today, 6/8, and just found out they have dropped the proverbial ball. Why did I trust them with this important task? Folks, we need to pound the pantry by bringing non perishable items. This is an entire month of June emphasis! The best place to put your items is on a table in the 29ers classroom!
Four hours of eating weeds liked to have worked me down yesterday morning. (However, buying groceries at Walmart at 2:00PM was worse!) I have never seen Rusty stir before 8:00AM on any morning. When that weed eater fired up at 7:30AM yesterday, his Mustang did too and was last seen speeding down the driveway. It amazingly returned shortly after noon as the weed eater went silent at 11:45AM.
I pray that you will have a great Sunday with Jesus. Go to church!
