Homecoming

I hope you know by now; March 29 is the date for our 100th Year

Homecoming! Our worship service will begin at 10 a.m. We have

several former preachers and interns

who will be with us on that day to help

with our service. After our meal to-

gether, we will come back into the

auditorium for a brief history of the church. Hundreds of letters

have been sent and personal invitations made. Plans are being

made for a large crowd. It all begins with you. If you are not here

a very important part of our church family will be missing.

Tent Meeting

Coming up after our homecoming will be

our tent meeting. The dates are May 29-31.

This is a Friday through Sunday meeting.

The tent will be located across the street

from our building on Sparkman Street.

Saturday, May 30, we will have a fish fry before our service that

night. This will begin around 4:30 p.m. The fish fry will be in our

fellowship area. Start inviting others as we continue to celebrate

our 100 years!

Next Quarter Adult Bible Classes

April begins our next quarter for our Adult Bible Classes. We are

going to continue with “Jesus’ Journey to Jerusalem”. Our studies

will focus on Luke 16 – 19. The same teacher rotation that we

have been using will be used for the next quarter. There is one

exception. Harry and I will continue with our rotations, and our

Shepherds will teach one of the classes in the rotation.

COMMUNION VOLUNTEERS Please sign the list in the Commons for one May-July Sunday to prepare and clean communion trays.

Last week we witnessed the tragedy that happened in the greater Nashville area after several horrific tornadoes. It’s a reminder how powerful of a force nature really is. It’s also a reminder of how short life can be. We’ve heard of the young children and parents that passed away and many others we haven’t heard the story of. Many of you have read the touching tribute to his 4-year-old daughter Matt Collins, a youth minister at the Collegeside Church of Christ, wrote. We’ve heard how many congregations added Holy, Holy, Holy to their worship Sunday as it was little Sawyer Kimberlin’s, a victim of the tornado along with his parents, favorite song to sing. Many tears have been shed and many perspectives changed because of the events last week. The Bible instructs us to rejoice with those who rejoice and mourn with those that mourn (Romans 12:15) and in Galatians 6:10 it says, Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. I think the actions of the last week show us the church can and does step up to the plate as the Bible tells us to.

What about when things happen to us individually, how will we react? What should/will we do? Is there a cookie cutter answer? Join us Sunday as we will dive into those questions as we ask “What?”.

We look forward to seeing everyone Sunday! In Him, Todd

Habitat for Humanity has

given us a perfect
