Today Sunday, August 29, 2010

“Bring a Psalm” Day Last week Greg Taylor called men and women in the church to bring psalms, prayers, hymns for our assembly today, according to I Corinthians14:26, Ephesians 5:19, Colossians 3:15-16. “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.” (Colossians 3:15-16, NIV)

So if you have been reading psalms or other Scriptures and believe the Spirit is leading you to share a particular reading or prayer with the church, you are encouraged to speak that today.

Please use the Bible as your guide and let your opinions and comments be few. Let the word speak loudest. May the Holy Spirit lead us today through the Word that is heard.

Children Betty Haynie has volunteered to be the new coordinator for Children’s Ministry teachers on Sundays. Betty would like for you to provide her with 3 reasons that you don’t want to teach children’s classes. If you don’t, Betty will be contacting you!

Greg Taylor will be leading a 15-minute meeting in Phillips Hall at 11:45 am after services today for all teachers, current teachers and those interested in helping with Children’s Ministry, to give an update on the program.

Upcoming Garnett Ladies Tea The Ladies Tea is today, May 2, in the Great Room following services. The location has been changed from Phillips Hall to the Great Room.

Money Matters! (The Art of Stewardship) It matters how you spend it. It matters how you make it. It matters how you invest it. It matters how you save it. It even matters what you don’t do with it. This 8 week course that began today, Sunday, May 2nd at 9:00am is designed to discuss these matters and many others.

Led by Robert Garland and David LeDoux, this is part 2 in a series of classes designed to offer biblical principles surrounding the practical needs of everyday life. Money Matters will not only offer insights on how to eliminate debt, but also discuss principles of Godly stewardship of time, resources, energies, skills and gifts. What does the Bible say about how God wants us to use the varied gifts he bestows upon each and every one of us? Please join us for this pertinent class.

Writing Your Life Story Class The Writing Your Life Story Class will begin Sunday, May 16, at 9 a.m. in Room 206. All are welcome, even if you haven’t signed up. For more information, contact Jean Hager at 492-8614.
