A MESSAGE FROM
Dr. Bill Owens
What a wonderful day we had for Easter! What a blessing to see our sanctuary filled with worshippers! Makes me want to announce that we will have an Easter Redo this Sunday! Hope to see everyone there!
Speaking of re-do, perhaps we should schedule an official winter redo. B-r-r-r-r, it was cold today. Some said it was Dogwood Winter, others said Blackberry. It was cold!
Please take a moment to read this remaining paragraph: I encountered the concept of “small groups” about 20 years ago. To me, it was nothing but a rebranding of Sunday School classes. Tony re-introduced the small group concept to GraceWorks, something you had observed in the past. After some encouragement from Tony, I brought together some folks and developed a new small group. We meet monthly, have dinner, and fellowship. We work together on selected and assigned mission projects. This has become one of the most meaningful encounters in my life. I share this to encourage you to talk to Tony about involvement in a small group. You will be blessed and be a blessing to others.
