There
will be no Wednesday Evening Service.
●
New
Years Eve Service will be this Saturday at 7:00.
Reminders:
●
There was
overwhelming support from the church to move ahead with selection of a
minister. We appreciate the support you
expressed and it would be our plan to wait till after of the hustle of the
holidays and the first week of January to send out a letter and ballot. We will provide an exhortation Wednesday
evening, January 4th reviewing the scriptures regarding the importance of and
qualifications of a minister. We would
than ask the congregation to prayerfully seek God’s direction in who He would
raise up to serve in the ministry and ask you to provide that name on the ballot
which would be due around January 20th.
Further information will be provided as we approach the time of
balloting.

Bro.
Fred Witzig from our Washington Church will be with us on Saturday evening,
January 14th. He will be giving a 2 hour
presentation on the historical perspective on the doctrines of Arminianism and
Calvinism. While many of you may not be
familiar with these terms, they are associated with the doctrines of free will,
predestination and eternal security.
