Hello everyone,
This weekend we continue our series through the Book of Acts with the message, “A Final Warning To The Elders” from Acts 20:17-38. Attached you will find your Digging Deeper Bible study notes. This week we will be looking at the unique role of an elder.
Note: We will not be printing a bulletin this week as our secretary has been out of state attending a family member’s memorial service, please print out your Digging Deeper Bible Study notes at home. I also encourage you to print out your teaching notes in color if you like them that way, we had to stop printing the color notes at the church as they are 10 cents per page verses 1.5 cents per page for the black and white.
Sunday Schedule
- 8:30am ~ Church prayer time in Room 101
- 9:30am ~ Sunday School with three adult electives
- 10:30am ~ Sunday Worship Service
Creative Parking
Just a reminder that we encourage everyone who can to park all the way down by the church office to open room in the main parking lot. If you are willing to make the walk, we can park eight vehicles in the parking lot next to the church office and many more on the lawn. Each person who parks creatively opens a space in the main parking lot for one of our visitors.
Overflow Room
We have a live feed of the service in the Passover Room every Sunday morning with coffee and treats available for you. Some folks like to go into the back of the sanctuary for worship, then go into the Overflow Room where they can spread out for the teaching. This has really helped us with seating for newcomers on Sundays. Last Sunday we were blessed to have 33 people worshiping in the Overflow Room.
Baptism Service Coming Sunday, April 28th
Our next baptism service is lined up for Sunday, April 28th. If you have never followed the Lord in water baptism and would like to, please let me know as soon as possible.
Ladies Retreat (Camp Fir Point)
Our “Ladies Retreat” is scheduled for May 3rd – 5th at Camp Fir Point in Glendale, OR. The cost for the event will be $100.00 per person (talk to Stef if financial help is needed). This year’s theme will be, “From the Cord to the Cross” brought to us by special speaker Patty Alexander. Our food this year will be catered by Penny Laine’s Gourmet Secrets. We ask that you sign up in the back of the sanctuary if you are interested in attending this special time together. (Please put your check/cash in a labeled envelope and place it into the offering box with “Ladies Retreat” written on it.) For more questions, call Stefanie Ahlers at 541-297-2899.
Veteran’s Breakfast
A breakfast is being planned for our veterans on Saturday, May 11 by Point Man Ministries. Be watching for more details as the event gets closer. In the meantime, come visit our Point Man ministry 6:00pm every Tuesday in Room 101.
Safe Families Diaper and Baby Wipe Drive
We are collecting diapers and baby wipes for the Safe Families Ministry that we host at Shoreline Community Church. If you would like to help young families in need, please bring your gift of diapers and baby wipes on Sunday mornings; the drop off is by the back doors of the sanctuary. Thank you!
Building Project
Our building project is moving forward step by step. When all is done, our sanctuary will have 122 more seats than it currently has. Please be praying for us as we move forward on this project, our goal is to have the addition framed in by the end of September.
Have a great week as you walk closely with Jesus. Please be praying about whom you can invite whom you can invite to church with you this week, I look forward to seeing you Sunday!
In Christian Love,
Michael J. Barnard
