Elder-led Prayer, Serving at Helen Wright, New Series in Haggai (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/26)

Pray for all of the missionaries traveling back home from Ecuador today. Minister Darby is staying until Tuesday and will be preaching at a church in Ecuador today. Please pray for him as he delivers the Word of God.

We're following the 52 week Bible reading plan. We are on week 30.

The next Elder-led Prayer will be held on Tuesday, July 28th, from 6 to 7pm. Everyone is invited to join us. If you are not able to attend but have prayer requests, you can place them in the prayer request box at the Welcome Center, use the connections card, or submit them online.

We have an opportunity to serve the community: Ladies of Zone 3 and all others, the Deaconess Ministry requests your assistance with meal service for our sisters at the Helen Wright Center on Thursday, July 30th, at 7pm. You may also make a monetary donation toward the cost of the meal. See the announcement for contact info if you would like to assist.

Don't forget that our Church Family Meeting is right after the service today. All members are asked to be present. We have important information to share about security as well as Board of Directors election.

As we celebrate our 150th Church Anniversary and consider the state of the American church in large, we'll be starting a new series next Sunday in the book of Haggai called "Restoring the Glory of God's House". Far too often, God's people are self-centered and consumed with their own lives rather than being consumed with living for God. Haggai is only two chapters so you can read it all before we start our series.

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
