ORG VOLUME 30 I SSUE 9 SEPTEMBER 2019 T HE S HARON M ESSENGER : P ROCLAIMING , G ROWING , S HARING Pastor Lloyd Gooden [email protected]Office Hours: 9:00am— 1:00pm Monday-Thursday From the Pastor’s Desk Already we are near to Labor Day and the unofficial end of summer. This means that some of our young people have already started school and most of us are getting back to our regular routines. I hope most, if not all of us were able to take some time off during the summer months for fun, rest, and renewal. As we look forward to the ministry opportunities for the fall, I want to remind you that September 8 th will be Rally Day when Sunday school will restart. On Rally Day, the Sunday school staff will be commissioned during morning worship and students will receive a special blessing. Thanks to all of you who are faithfully serving in children's ministry and helping the church to fulfill its commitment to love and nurture children. May you truly understand how pleasing your service is to Christ and the church. It is said that, “The family that prays together, stays together.” This may not always be the case, but if the family pray and worship together that could help to bring those family members closer to one another and to God. It is with this in mind that the elders and I are inviting you to a special service in celebration of the family and friends on Sunday October 13th. This will be at the regular worship time and the focus will be on family and friends. The hope is that you will invite as many of your family members and friends as possible to this special service of celebration. There will be a luncheon after worship in the fellowship hall. Our Confirmands: Bryley, Maxwell, Grady, Adrian, and Adam continue their quest for greater knowledge of Christ in their lives as they prepare to confirm their faith later in the fall. They have been working hard and making progress. Please keep them in your prayers as they continue this leg of their Christian journey. Sisters and Brothers, as we continue to serve the Lord in this part of the vineyard, we acknowledge that there is much work to be done. Christ has called us and endowed each of us with special gifts to be used in the building up of His kingdom. Where do you hear Him calling you to serve? What is He calling you to do? Remember that we are the hands and feet of Jesus in our world and He is depending on all of us to be His faithful ambassadors. So let us not hold back but seek to know our Savior’s will for each of us. Please remember to keep our sick and home bound members in your prayers. May God bless you all Pastor Lloyd Pamela Horn, Admistrave Assistant 740.922.5507 [email protected]Office Hours 9:30am—1:30pm Tues, Thurs, & Friday
