| “What was it that within a few days transformed a band of mourners into the spiritual conquerors of the world? It was not the memory of Jesus’ life; it was not the inspiration which came from past contact with Him. But it was the message, “He is risen.” —J. Gresham Machen |
Announcements
| —June 8 Evening Worship As announced last Sunday, we will wait to begin our Sunday evening programing until Sunday, June 8th. On the 8th we will have an evening worship service, which will be similar but different from the morning service. This will be an excellent opportunity to spend more time in worship and fellowship with our church family. I highly encourage you to attend! —Extended Officer Nominations All, the Session has decided to keep nominations open for 3 more weeks starting this Sunday to include nominations to the office of Deacon. That means we will have had 4 weeks total to nominate individuals to the office of elder, and we will have 4 total weeks to nominate diaconal candidates. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please don’t hesitate to reach out! Here is a link to the nomination form. Please remember if you’d like to nominate a particular man for officer it is imperative that you speak with him first to make sure he is willing to accept the nomination. Also, getting nominated does not guarantee nor obligate anyone to anything. Upon being nominated each man will have the opportunity to go through training, and at any point during the training either he or the Session could decide that the office of elder is not right for him at this time. This is a significant and weighty thing, please prayerfully consider men in the church who exhibit the qualifications listed for officers in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1. —No Communion On Sunday, June 1 Beloved, as there will be no ordained Teaching Elder at worship on Sunday, June 1 (I’ll be officiating a wedding) we will not be celebrating the sacrament of communion together. There will be a guest preacher, and everything else will be as usual. Communion will resume Sunday, June 8. —Songs for Sunday Here’s what we’re singing this Sunday if you’d like to familiarize yourself with tunes + lyrics! O Worship The King Psalm 34:1-10 (to the tune of Approach My Soul The Mercy Seat) Only A Holy God Here Is Love Vast As The Ocean We Will Feast In The House of Zion |
