School 9:30 am ▪ Family Worship
Service 10:45 am
Wait in Prayer Worship in Reverence Depart to Serve
Be mindful that the few minutes before the service
are set aside to help prepare for worship.
Some use this time to pray or meditate on the call to worship or just be
quiet before the Lord. Let’s keep our
visiting before the service to a minimum
– or
better, let’s wait until after the service.

Announcements
This
morning, we welcome Rasheed Akhtar back to North Collins. Mr. Akhtar is currently serving as ISI’s
South Asia Campus Minister. His
testimony and ministry among international students bears powerful witness to
God’s work in his life. Let’s give him
our full attention as he brings a message from God’s word.
Next week we
will celebrate the Lord’s Supper. If you
would like to participate but are unable to be here, see Derek or one of the
Elders to arrange another time. Don’t be
shy about taking full advantage of this important gesture of unity with Christ
and his body. A fellowship meal
following the serivce is NOT planned at this time.
