Hallelujah Halloween "10"

We are planning a huge outreach event for October 30.

This will be our Hallelujah Halloween when we will hopefully minister to several hundred children.

But, we need your help!  I need you to donate the candy.

From 6:00-8:00 that night we are going to host a "carnival type" event.  The theme this year is the 10 Plagues.  The event will have several games in which the children can win candy and small prizes.  That's where I need your help. 

I need 20,000 pieces of candy!  I want to make sure all of the children who attend go home with some candy in their bags and God's message of love in their hearts.

You can help by bringing your candy NOW.  You can bring a bag every time you come to church or you can buy in bulk and bring it all at once.  Would it be easier to give money?  No problem.  Just put your donation in the offering plate.  Just make sure it is clearly marked:  "Hallelujah Halloween".

Thank you for helping with our outreach. 
I pray that we will be able to share the Gospel with many families that night!

Thank you ,
Ms. Heather

Kids Compel Outreach

This Wednesday night, September 28 at 6:30, the children will be heading to Creekside Apartments in Georgetown.

They plan to minister to children with their puppet ministry and to join alongside them for a children's service.

We've been  praying and preparing for this event for a while and we're all very excited.
  I hope you will support us in prayer as well.

If your children would like to join us, meet us there.

JBQ

Junior Bible Quiz will have their first meet this Saturday 9:30 at Lexington First Assembly of God.

We're really excited for all three teams as they have worked so hard to memorize and practice their questions and quotations.

I know they will all do a super job! 

Come out and catch some of the action this Saturday in Lexington.

see you there,
Ms. Heather

BGMC Sunday, Sept 25, 2011

We learned about the church in Burkina Faso this month.  The church is growing so rapidly there, they don't have enough trained pastors to lead.

Our BGMC money helps to train these new pastors which God is calling into ministry.  Praise God that pennies can do so much!!

The children's memory verse for this week is:

James 4:7
Submit yourselves, then, to God.  Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Remember:*** BGMC is October 23 next month!

love to all,
Ms. heather

This past week we talked about two ways that troubles start in the church, jealousy and arguing. 

Paul wrote to the church in Corinth about these issues and they are things that Christians still deal with today. 

But God gives us direction in how to deal with these sins:

The Holy Spirit makes you one in every way.  So try your best to remain as one.  Let peace keep you together.        Ephesians 4:3


Don't forget:  Next Sunday, September 25, is BGMC.  Bring your Buddy Barrels!

Love to all,
Ms. heather

Talking Body Parts

1 Corinthians 12 tells us how important each part of the body is to the whole body. 
And God paints a picture for us to understand this using our fleshly bodies.

But the bigger picture is the Body of Christ and how important we all are to the proper working of the body, His Church.  Each child is important to God and the Church.  Each adult is important to God and the Church.  Please don't neglect your church attendance.  It's important to God ..... and the Church.

1 Corinthians  12:27        
                         You are the body of Christ. Each one of you is a part of it.

Love to all,
Ms. Heather

We looked at Moses and the Israelites again today.  We talked about  Moses' response to all the things that happened on their journey through the wilderness.  We compared that to the response of the Israelites.  What a difference!

Moses and the Isrealites were all travelling the same path.  They endured the same things.  They followed the cloud together.  Yet they were an example of two extemes.

Jude 1:5  tells us the Lord delivered His people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe.   

Belief -- that made all the difference. 

We are lost without the Lord.

Guide me in your truth. Teach me.  You are God my Savior.  I put my hope in you all day long.      Psalm 25:5
