Greetings!   
 

Hopefully, we are through with all the snow for a while! 

And I hope to see all of you tonight for our Ash Wednesday service tonight at 6:30 p.m.!
 

This week's message may sound like deja vu because it is!  Let's try again. This week we'll explore the second item in our vision statement: Empower

For I am longing to see you so that I may share with you some spiritual gift to strengthen you-or rather so that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine. Romans 1:11-12 (NRSV)

·         Can you think a time when someone strengthened you?

o   Can you identify a particular spiritual gift that was used to strengthen you?

o   What would have happened if that person had not exercised their gift?

·         When have you been called to use one of your spiritual gifts to strengthen someone?

o   What did gift did you use?

o   Did you see the results of sharing your gift?

o   How did that person respond?

·         What would a church full of people sharing their gifts to encourage and strengthen one another look like?

o   How might it look different than our congregation today?

o   How might it look similar?

Look forward to seeing you on Sunday!

The event will be held at the Ministry Center of First United Methodist Church. Lodging is available at the Hartselle Camp Meeting, where I serve as president. The Puckett Dormitory is only 2 years old, and offers very nice accommodations! Again, let me know if you have any questions. Blessings -
