What You Need To Know
“But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love
those who love them. …But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for
nothing in return; and your reward will be great, …” -Luke 6:32,35
CONTINUE TO PRAY Pastor Downs is
currently recovering from his surgery. So
that we are not overwhelming the family,
a schedule has already been established
for delivering meals to Pastor and
Mrs. Downs. During his recovery time we
ask that you feel free to call Mrs. Downs
prior to visiting and also you may send
cards and words of encouragement via
their new address of 39 New Pond Lane.
Please continue to pray for the family as
they provide the necessary continued care
needed to aid in his healing.
CHURCH OFFICE Just a reminder, if you
need to contact the Pastor during his recovery time. We ask that you contact
your assigned deacon instead, or contact the church office. Just a reminder
the office is opened Tuesday through Friday, between the hours of 9am to
2pm. We will make sure to assist you the best way we can.
CONTRIBUTION STATEMENTS The final contribution statements for
2012 were mailed out early this week. We hope that you have received
them by now and have gotten the opportunity to review them. If you have
any questions or concerns, please contact the office so that we can address
them for you. We also ask if you did not receive a statement and would like
one, please contact the church office also, so that one can be sent to you.
GETTING WARM BY THE FIRE It’s cold outside and
Sunday school attendance has been declining. For the
month of February, why not make a new commitment
to start your Sunday worship with a small fire- Bible
study. It is a great opportunity to get the family
involved. There are classes ranging from the youngest
to the young at heart! Sunday school is a great way to
start off your time of worship on Sunday morning.
LADIES!!! Let’s start getting the word out! The
ladies have started plans for the Womens’ ‘Stay at
Home’ retreat for 2013. Our theme this year,
“A Cozy Mountain Lodge- where women find
shelter in God.” We are looking forward to this
cozy getaway on Friday, April 19th and Saturday,
April 20th. This year we are asking the ladies to join
us with a new retreat mission project. We will be
focusing on our local homeless shelter. Each lady is invited to donate a $5 to
$10 Shoprite gift card. These donations will help our local shelter provide
meals to those who are in need. So, join together ladies and start spreading
the word. There will be more details to follow in the next few weeks!
