The Week of August 10, 2014

We will continue looking at the dream of Daniel as more of world history is revealed.  We will see how God knows the beginning from the end and, as a result of that - no matter how tough it may get - we can trust His plan and His will for our world and our loves.  This ought to give us courage in the place of fear when we face obstacles in life.  We will conclude the message by sharing and inviting everyone to make sure their name is in the "Book of Life" by knowing Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

The Evening Bible Study groups begin September 9. The Women's Evening Bible Study will meet at Steven's Restaurant in Downers Grove at 6 pm.  The Men's Evening Bible Study will meet at the church for a cookout, also at 6 pm. For the first 5 weeks, the men will be studying the book entitled "Always True" by James Macdonald.  There is a sign up sheet, this week, in the church for those men who are interested so that the correct amount of books may be ordered. The 'regular' Evening Bible Study groups will meet the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month at 7 pm at the following   locations: Men: Fellowship Hall; Women: Church Office.  All are welcome.

 

 

 

Pastor Howard will begin a 5-week study on the Book of Jonah beginning September 7.  You are invited to participate in a small group Bible Study and discussion for those 5 weeks, based on those messages.  The groups will meet in various homes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings.  You can select an evening that works best for you.  Joining together with others for study, prayer and encouragement is a tremendous blessing.  We hope you will seriously consider this great opportunity.  There are sign up sheets on the table in the sanctuary.

 

 

Sunday school will soon be starting, and we need teachers for our younger students.  The materials we use make it VERY easy, and team teaching means you can split the time with someone else. Please prayerfully consider being a part of this vital ministry in our church family, and serving our Lord in this capacity.  Contact Judy Bury if you can help out.
