Hi everyone,
This Sunday I plan to bring the message, “The Christian’s Struggle Against Sin” from Romans 7:14-8:1, this will be a very practical teaching. Please read through the attached “Digging Deeper” Bible study notes before this weekend to get the most out of the message.
Baptism Service This Sunday
We currently have five people lined up to be baptized this weekend. If you have never followed the Lord in water baptism and would like to, please let me know as soon as possible.
Pray Oregon Coast
Our next Pray Oregon Coast community prayer and worship event is scheduled for 6:00pm Friday, March 20th at the Bay Area Church of the Nazarene in North Bend. We hope you can join us for a very special evening together.
Building Update
We are hoping to have room 101 back open again this weekend and Stefanie’s office up and running again. The main hallway on the children’s wing is being painted this week and should be completed for Sunday. We are waiting for the new flooring in the girl’s children’s bathroom before Doug and crew can finish that project. Last Sunday I received our long-awaited permanent occupancy permit and it is now posted in the Sanctuary – Hallelujah! The goal is to have everything done in the next couple of weeks so that we can celebrate our grand re-opening of the church during our Resurrection Day Service on Sunday, April 4th.
Special Business Meeting
The elders have called a special business meeting immediately following church on Sunday, March 29th as we seek an affirmation vote on our newest deacon candidate Rod Chestnut. Both the elders and deacons have already approved Rod for the roll, now it is up to the congregation to affirm him.
Good Friday Service
Our “Good Friday Service” is scheduled for 6:30pm Friday, April 3rd at the church. This year I will be speaking and plan to bring the message, “The Original Black Friday” from John 19:1-22; communion will follow.
Resurrection Day Service
This year our “Resurrection Day Service” is scheduled for 10:30am Sunday, April 4th. Come expecting lots of special music and a message to touch your heart. Iplan to bring the message, “He Is Risen” from Matthew 27:51-28:7a. Please be praying about who you can invite to join us at church for both our Good Friday and Resurrection Day services!
Ham Radio Question
Phil Slaughter is asking if there are any fellow ham radio operators who attend Shoreline Community Church? He has some ideas that he would like to run by you if you do.
Buddy Williams “Health And Wellness Ministry”
Thanks to Deb Sensenbach and the team as we held our first health and wellness outreach last Sunday. We were pleasantly surprised to have a continuous flow of people coming from the time church ended at around noon until at least 12:45pm. We will do the screening and teaching session every 3rd Sunday of the month following church and will try to get better and better as time goes by.
Have an awesome week in the Lord as you walk closely with Him. I look forward to seeing you this Sunday, please be thinking about a friend who you can invite with you!
In Christian Love,
Michael J. Barnard
