ANNOUNCEMENTS

3DYouth Group meets here TONIGHT at 6:00 pm for life lessons

 from Ruth followed by activities and refreshments.

Several people have expressed interest in joining our fellowship as members – Bruce and Shirley Brown, Julia Haney, Katie Yoder and Rebekah Yoder.

They have all met the church’s requirements, and the elders are happy to recommend each for membership.  We are planning to proceed with this

happy event during this morning’s service.

As we approach the end of the academic year and the warmer months beyond, let’s be praying for a safe, refreshing summer together. 

See the enclosed list of dates for your summer church calendar.

CALENDAR

Wednesday, June 5^th

Choir practice at the church at 6:00 pm.

Join us at the church for Bible study and prayer at 7:00 pm.  We’ve begun a survey of the Old Testament prophets – their ministries, their message, and their madness!  We’re finishing up Malachi’s 6^th oracle and plan to tackle Amos.  It’s a great time to join us!

Saturday, June 8^th

We are pleased to welcome T. David Gordon back to North Collins for our 10^th Annual Leadership Forum.  Dr. Gordon, who currently serves as Professor of Greek and Religion at Grove City College, will address the theme:

Meeting With God: A Biblical Theology of Worship.

“The God who banished us from his presence and barred us from it with cherubim and flaming swords,” says Dr. Gordon, “will one day redeem us in the last Adam; and ‘the dwelling place of God will be with men, and he will dwell with them.’”  Plan now to join us for what is sure to be an enjoyable, challenging time of study and application.  See the sign-up in the foyer.

Get the most out of the service by asking about our special listening devices.  Pick up one in the back or see an usher for help.  If yours isn't working properly, don’t be bashful about raising your hand to ask for assistance.
