6 Things to Know This Week

Happy Mid Week Celebration!  Here are 6 important notes for the week.

1. Sunday --> BYOB!: The rise of passionate-less Christianity leads us to the story of Elijah on Mount Caramel from 1 Kings 18. It will be helpful to follow along in your own Bible so bring it on Sunday!

2. Care Elders: Each year we divide the members and regular attenders into 4 groups.  It is easier for the needs of the congregation to be met this way.  These are the present groups listed by LAST NAMES:

  • A-C: Susan DeBoer
  • D-K: Marc Baird
  • L-R: Doug Bergman
  • S-V: Sue Vredevoogd
3. Vacations: Both Holly and Pastor Matt will be on vacation this next week.  If you have questions or are in need of care, contact your Elder.  (See previous note!)

4. Men's Group: This Sunday, June 23 after church anyone is welcome to brainstorm/discuss/talk about restarting the men's group. We will meet in the front of the stage.

5. Future Events:

  • July 25 – 27 – Church Campout (tentative)
  • August 4 - Church picnic

6. Prayers:
  • For Jerry Singleton, father of Brenda Doctor, and his family. He is going to have surgery on June 21st to remove Bladder Cancer.
  • For Jan Zimmerman as she recovers from Colon Surgery. 
  • For Sandy Rings friend, Val who just had a hip replaced but is in ICU with health complications.
  • Prayers of thanks that Jim Workman is OK after being in a car accident that totaled his car.

Midweek at Celebration

Here are 4 things that you need to know this week!

1. Wild Game Dinner - Don't forget this annual event on Saturday, March 16! It is geared for men and boys of hunting age. Contact Roger if you have more questions.

2. Meeting Needs - Churches have the distinct challenge of helping meet the various needs of its people. Not only spiritual needs but physical, emotional, and even financial. To help us do this better, the Elders put all of our members into 4 care districts. We hope that you will notice the difference! The specific districts are arranged by last names.
A-C = Tim
D-K = Marc
L-R = Steve
S-Z = Sue

3. New Series - Wish that someone would summarize for you all that you really need to know in life? Our next series of Sunday messages will focus on the essentials in life that you cannot do without! Invite someone who needs to hear it!

4. Drama at Celebration: this morning the snowplow driver cracked the water pipe in the parking lot and it started gushing water. Turns out that no one could find a shut off valve! It was wonderful to see Bobby, Jim, and Rob spring into action! One thing is sure: we definitely need a bigger, better boat (with a shutoff valve)!
