Good Lord's Day everyone! I trust this finds you checking your early email before you head to church. I just wanted to give you a very quick update on our PIE* with the PASTOR retreat we had yesterday. It went very well, thanks to God, and the people present felt it was not long enough. I've been in ministry long enough to find that a very, very rare thing! Usually folks want to be the first in line out of the door! Yesterday the 25 or so who came to learn more about prayer said they wanted another retreat, perhaps an overnight one, where all the topics presented could be shared again. Several wonderful ideas were shared as a result of the workshops presented, and for that we give glory to God! Please be aware of prayer opportunities that might be mentioned today in different settings. Please be open to the leading of the Holy Spirit to be a pray-er.
Also, after the 11 o'clock worship service we've got our Fellowship Meal. We try to have these on a regular rotation basis and today's the day. It's also a welcome meal for new members and all who have joined in the last six months will be honored. Bring a covered dish according to your last name, the meat will be provided. Everyone is welcome and invited. More importantly, come out and make our new members feel at home!
See you in church!
