"Now Samuel was serving the LORD. He was a young boy.." (1Sam. 2:18) Children ask a lot of questions of adults. I often wonder if adults spend too much time answering kids questions that we fail to ask them questions ourselves. Kids have an entirely different perspective that can open our eyes to so much. This week, spend time asking questions of kids. Be prepared for the unpredictable. Updates for Lucca Miller can be found one the CaringBridge link...http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/marycatherinemiller A meal schedule has been created for the family at www.takethemameal.com . The account is under Mary and Verlin Miller, password is Lucca. If there are members who would like to help the family but do not want to take a meal, they can sign-up to do household chores, run errands, etc. In this case, they would just write in what service they will offer in the space provided for the meal description. This is going to be a long, hard road for the whole family as Lucca fights her cancer. Any help will be greatly appreciated by the whole family. People who enjoy Fellowship Time between services ... We need you!! Everyone needs to take a turn to make this fellowship time possible. Sign up sheets for 2013 are ready for you to choose a date to bring the goodies and make the coffee. Helpful directions can be found in the Red Book next to the sign up sheets, and detailed signs on how to make coffee are posted by both pots. If you need help, because you are "first timers", please check with Diane Hess or Kris Rowe. Please keep things very simple. Grab and friend and provide fellowship together. Your service will be greatly appreciated. Sunday School Please join us!
