September Birthdays & Anniversaries, 2024 Calendar Planning Meeting, Invite Your One (Pastoral Emphasis for 9/3)

Welcome to our newest member who completed New Members Orientation and her membership interview: Sis. Tiffany Bryant 

Happy Birthday to our September babies... 




Happy Anniversary to our September couples...



Our September Senior Birthday Surprise goes to Sis. Daureen Richards!



To all Ministry Directors and Ministries, the 2024 calendar planning meeting is on 9/9 at 9 AM in the MPR. This meeting is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for any ministry that is interested in presenting a program for the 2024 Calendar. At the meeting, we will introduce a change from the old format to a more collaborative process that should hopefully generate events where ministries will work together to meet the goals of the church mission. 

All women are invited for a time of prayer at 8 AM in the Sanctuary on September 10th. 

Don't forget that every second Sunday is Invite Your One Sunday. Many people will come out to church when invited by a friend. So who is your one? And next Sunday is a great one to invite someone because we will be back in the book of Revelation.

Next Sunday, we resume our Revelation Sermon Series, “The Victory of Jesus and His Church”. The book of Revelation has always fascinated people, and in light of all that's going on in the world, it's good for us to understand what God says about the end times. So come out and invite someone to join you.

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community.  Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
