More Children's Ministry News
Have we got exciting news for you! Registration for our new children's program, "Team KID" will begin Wednesday, Sept. 16. This program will be held on Wednesday evenings from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m., and children in grades 1-6 will have additional opportunity to grow in the Lord. Team KID offers exciting learning adventures, games, crafts, snacks and worship. KID stands for Kids in Discipleship

Would you please be in prayer for the preparations for this new ministry? And would you also be praying about being one of our volunteers?



We're still missing YOU
We're still missing a few Very Important People ... those who haven't turned in their directory information sheet (located on the literature table in the foyer) or those who haven't had their picture taken. Please do so ASAP so the printing of our new directory can begin soon. To schedule a photo shot for today or next week, please see Joel Ashby. Thank you.



Special Call to Prayer
From time to time we stress the importance of gathering together for prayer as a group to present the needs of our congregation and our nation to the Lord God. We would like to meet together on Sunday evening, August 30, from 5 - 7 p.m. to pray. Please put this time on your calendar.

Thoughts to Ponder
Be patient. Bear with one another.
Proverbs 15:18
'A hot-tempered man stirs up dissension but a patient man calms a quarrel.'

Proverbs 20:3
'It is to a man's honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.'

Proverbs 26:21
'As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome man for kindling strife.'

I Corinthians 13:4
'Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.'
