What a great day of worship we had Sunday as we continued to look at Ephesians, based upon the 2023 January Bible Study. It was so good to have the choir in both services. Nelda Stockstill and Anita Kendrick provided the special music in the 8:30 service, and the brother / sister combo of Ethan and Abby Wilson sang in the 11:00 service. They were all such a blessing!

 

We were also blessed to add David Renfro and Richard & Janet Teague to our church family through the transfer of their church letters! If you don’t know them, you can view their pictures on our New Members board in the Welcome Center. Please seek an opportunity to welcome them to our family!

 

Our major student event, DNOW, is the weekend of January 20-22. We are collecting snacks (cookies, chips, candy, sandwiches – think, “teenage human garbage disposals!”) for the host homes and scholarships for students in need. Most of all, I ask that you would please begin to pray for Rhys, our small group leaders, the camp pastor and worship team, the host homes, and all of the students.

 

We need $2650 to meet our Lottie Moon Christmas Offering goal. If you have not given, please ask God to put an amount on your heart, and then give in faith. We need to finish this collection so we can send our offering to the international missionaries who are depending upon it!

 

Finally, please continue to pray for Bro. Brad and Lori. Brad is continuing to make progress. However, although he is improving, he still needs our prayers for a full recovery.
