Communion Service with Elder Craig McGlassion

Sermon by Pastor Bill Connell

"Oh, No! Manna Again!"

Are you a complainer? Odds are, if we're honest with ourselves, the answer is indeed "Yes". Would you like to change that and learn from Scripture how God sees complaining? Then please take the time to listen, or perhaps, listen again, to Pastor Bill's teaching on this important aspect of our lives. Go to our web site: http://www.gracebiblesouthgate.org/ and then click on "Listen to Recent Sermons" to hear today's message. Why not invite others to listen to it also?

TeamKID
Wednesdays won't be the same at Grace Bible Church once elementary-aged children begin coming to TeamKID! There will be worship time, Bible teaching and activities geared just for children in grades 1-6. The program has a taste of the well-received VBS program from July; only on a smaller scale, and will be held on a weekly basis.

Volunteers are still needed ... please see Lynn Bolton. Registration will be held Wednesday, Sept. 16 at 6:30 p.m.

Adult Bible Study will be held in the sanctuary beginning Wed., Sept. 23


Note: The new church directory will soon be printed! If you haven't already done so, please fill out an information form and turn in to the office; and see Clyde or Louise Moore to have your picture taken. We'd like to see all our church family included in this new directory. Thank you!

Right-to-Life Lifespan
Abortion is NOT Health Care!

Did you know that the U.S. Senate and House committees are presently working on health care reform packages including various amendments that will directly affect both abortion and rationing of health care. National pro-abortion groups see this legislation as an opportunity to mandate abortion and abortion funding.

Please contact your two U.S. Senators, (in MI they are) Carl Levin at 202-224-6221 or email him at senator@levin.senate.gov and Debbie Stabenow at 202-224-4822, email senator@stabenow.senate.gov ; also, please contact your U.S. Representative. (You may call the Lifespan office if you need more information about your U.S. Representative)

The message to be conveyed is that abortion and abortion funding must be 'explicitly excluded' from any health care insurance reform legislation. Contact Right-to-Life Lifespan at 734-422-6230.

Thoughts to Ponder...
Put on other Christ-like virtues which promote peace

Colossians 3:12 & 13 "May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you. May He strengthen your hearts so that you will be blameless and holy in the presence of our God and Father when our Lord Jesus comes with all His holy ones".
