The 4:19 Initiative
Part 4: Sacrifice
Text: 1 Chronicles 29:1-5


What does it mean for our devotion to Jesus to actually cost us something? This Sunday, we continue The 4:19 Initiative by looking at David’s words: “Because of my devotion… I now give my personal treasures.” Generosity is good, but sacrifice goes further—sacrifice changes our plans, our options, and what we are able to do. True sacrifice isn’t measured by the size of the gift, but by what that gift costs us. Join us Sunday as we ask: What am I willing to change or release because of my devotion to Jesus and His mission?

Gather at the Table
Part 4: Setting Another Table
Text: Acts 2:41-47; Luke 22:10-12


The early church did four ordinary things, and Clinton already does all of them. This Sunday we’ll look at Acts 2 and ask where our next table should be set, and who is being called to host it. Whether it’s a Sunday School class in our new Annex or a table in your own kitchen, there is a place for you, either setting the table or pulling up a chair.

Join us at Clinton. There’s a place at the table for you.

Whenever someone goes in the hospital, has a medical crisis, or health concern that the pastor and church need to know about please contact Sherri Appleby at 478-972-9775 for Gray or Chris Smarr at 478-447-2379 for Clinton.

Our Kids Ministry is growing, and we want to make sure every child who comes through our doors is welcomed, loved, and able to fully participate in the life of our church. As we continue welcoming children with autism, learning disabilities, and other unique needs, we have two important opportunities to serve.

First, we are looking for someone with professional training or experience working with children with special needs who can partner with Kristin, our Kids Ministry Director. This person would help us evaluate and improve our learning environments, develop best practices, and equip and train our Kids Ministry team to serve these children well.

Second, we are building a team of buddies—caring adults and students who can come alongside individual children when they need a little extra support. A buddy helps a child participate alongside everyone else: learning about Jesus, joining activities, building friendships, and knowing that they belong.

You don't have to be an expert to be a buddy. You simply need a heart for kids, a willingness to learn, and a desire to help every child experience the love of Jesus and the life of His church.

If either of these opportunities sounds like a way God may be calling you to serve, contact Kristin at children@graymethodist.org

FOR THOSE SERVING THIS SATURDAY - DON'T FORGET TO WEAR YOUR MAKING DISCIPLES WHO MAKE DISCIPLES T-SHIRTS AND MEET AT THE CHURCH AT 3:00PM TO GATHER SUPPLIES TO TAKE OVER TO FIRST BAPTIST AND SET UP OUR AREA.
