Happy New Year!  BRRRRR!

1/1/2022

0 Comments

 
Greetings, everyone, and Happy New Year! Here is information on modified service schedule tomorrow:
As I write this, the snow is steadily falling with no signs of stopping. We are expecting another 4-6 inches of accumulation, and the temps are supposed to be bitterly cold in the morning with a dangerous wind chill. 
In consultation with our deacon chairman, the service schedule is modified as follows:
FOR TOMORROW ONLY
  • Sunday School is canceled.
  • Service time will be 10:30 am in the sanctuary.
  • We strongly encourage you to exercise caution in getting out in the extreme cold.
  • Services will be both in-person in the sanctuary and on Facebook Live. 
This Lord's Day! (1/1/22)
  • Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions is wrapping up, and you outdid yourselves, church! Thank you for helping us meet and exceed our $1200 goal. You gave $1,935 through the LMCO. That is outstanding.                (I incorrectly reported our total last week. This is the corrected amount with additions from Sunday.).  For more information on the LMCO, visit this link.
  • Worship Together at 10:30 in the Sanctuary. As mentioned above, services are modified due to inclement weather. Please exercise caution in getting out in the extreme cold as the wind chill has the potential to be 10 to 20 degrees below zero in the morning. Facebook Live is an option for those who can't get out. If you don't have Facebook, you can visit the church website and click on the small video player on the lower right side of the front page of the website to view the service. (If you need help finding the player, please feel free to reach out to me).  
  • Scriptures for Sunday. Here are the Scriptures we will be reading that will shape our corporate worship. Take a few moments to read and meditate on them. Also, we have seven different Scriptures in our morning worship, so they make a great resource for personal or family worship Sunday through Saturday. Click anywhere on the link to see a printable version of these passages on biblegateway.com
    • Fighter Verse: Isaiah 40:8
    • Call to Worship: Psalm 72:1-14
    • Old Testament Reading: Isaiah 60:1-6
    • New Testament Reading: Ephesians 3:1-12
    • Assurance of Pardon: Ephesians 1:7-8
    • Sermon Text: Luke 9:18-22 
    • Benediction: Numbers 6:24-26

READ THROUGH THE BIBLE Have you wanted to read the Bible, but haven't known where to start? You can simply start from the beginning (Genesis) and read straight through to the end (Revelation). But the best way, I believe, to read the Bible and get the most from it is to have a plan. I love this blog post from Ligonier because it gives so may options to the person who really wants to have a plan to read through the Bible. Most of these are "read-the-Bible-in-one-year" plans, but at least one is a 2-year plan and one is a 3-year plan. One is chronological, a great way to read the Bible. I have used Grant Horner's unique plan which is not tied to any set time for completion. The plan, not included in the post above, that I have used most recently is the Five Day Bible Reading plan which you might recognize from this time last year. An added benefit to this plan is the additional resources to support your reading available at this website.


BONUS:  We will be singing the Getty's song "Joy Has Dawned" in worship tomorrow. Here is a video you can watch to become more familiar with this song that takes us from Christmastide into Epiphany. This version is combined with Angels We Have Heard on High, but we will only be singing "Joy Has Dawned."


BONUS BONUS: Don Whitney is well-known for his books and articles on the spiritual disciplines (Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life; Spiritual Disciplines in the Church; Simplify Your Spiritual Life, just to name a few). He is perhaps less well-known for his lists to aid in developing disciplines and habits for the Christian walk. Here is a list entitles Ten (More) Questions for a New Year that you might find very  helpful as you seek to dedicate this year to living for Christ.
See you in church!


Grace and peace,


Pastor Greg
