7 Things You Should Know This Week



So this is a Michigan winter? I get so confused with the 60 degree days with melting snow followed by low temperatures with a foot of snow and then back to melting again. Today it seems that the snow wants to come back from its vacation. Welcome back!

Here are 7 things you should know this week!

1. Movie Night Rescheduled - The snow was too much last week so we rescheduled the movie "October Baby" to Friday, February 8, 7:00PM!

2. Scarf - Did you find a long red scarf? Contact Pastor Matt if you found it.

3. Prayers - We are grateful for a good surgery on Fred Schossau's shoulder on Wednesday. Pray for a good recovery too!

4. Survey - Your feedback DOES matter! If you haven't already, fill out the Celebration survey by Saturday. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/P6WYTHX

5. Next Steps Class - February 17 we will start a "New Members" class after the morning worship. This class is geared for anyone wanting to take that their next steps in involvement at Celebration. Contact Pastor Matt to sign up.

6. Car - Looking for a car to sell? Wayne K needs one. I said that I would pass this along. Contact me and I will send you his number. Also, pray for his dad who is in Mary Free bed in GR recovering from a stroke.

7. There are so many areas in our lives that we need an upgrade. Sunday we start our series on a few of the areas that God wishes to improve in our lives. You won't want to miss it!

Celebration Midweek - Jan. 23, 2013

How much more excitement can we have this week? The Consumer's Energy guys replaced our electrical pole in the parking lot that was pushed over by the snowplow! Good times!

1. Prayers: Pastor Walt - X-rays showed no more kidney stones so they took out the stents. He will not need any more surgeries. Marilee S - They removed a nodule in her lung and found it to be benign (non-cancerous). She is recuperating at home.

2. Congregational Meeting: We will have a congregational meeting at church Sunday to discuss moving forward with Phase 2 of our building program. Enclosed is a handout.

3. Feedback Survey: Please provide us feedback by taking a short 5 minute survey! Thanks. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/P6WYTHX

4. Movie Night: This Friday, January 25, at 7:00PM we will show October Baby in the worship center. The movie intertwines the topic of abortion and the story of a girl looking for love, forgiveness, and life. View the trailer for more info: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_9l7lEe-AA FYI: The movie is rated PG-13 and may not be suitable for small children.

5. New Members Class - In February we will start a New Members class after morning worship. Yes, that means that food will be involved! This class is for anyone who wants to take that next step in responsibilities and involvement at Celebration. We will meet 3 times to explore what it means to be a member at Celebration. Contact Pastor Matt to sign up.

6. This coming Sunday we will conclude our series of "In the Boat With Jesus". We always talk about being fishers of men but what needs to happen before we are? I wish I would have known this a long time ago!
