Children’s Ministries LOVING CHILDREN—“Let the little children come to Me, and don't stop

them…” Jesus said. He was “blessed” by them! God, help us see children

as a blessing from You! When we do, we’ll make them a priority, in our

ministry, as a Church! Please pray about these needs:

Missions MISSIONARY SPOTLIGHT: Please pray for Steve & Linda Walters this

week. While based in West Point, NE, Steve leads ministry “teams” for

The Navigators to Cameroon, Kenya & Uganda, Africa, that support

General Announcements “IS THERE NO OTHER WAY?” is the title of this morning’s message,

from Acts 17:22-28, as Pastor Terry continues our current series of messages

titled Apologetics: Defending Your Faith. One of the many claims unbelievers

make, against Christianity, is it’s “exclusivity”—the belief that Jesus is the ONLY

way to God!

COMMUNION SERVICE: If you have trusted Jesus Christ as your Savior,

we invite you to participate in the communion service this morning. As

believers, we are called to “worship” Jesus as we “remember” the awful price

He paid when He took our sins upon Himself and hung on Calvary’s cross.

THE “CONVOY OF HOPE” IS COMING to Sioux City on Saturday,

October 1st. Would you prayerfully consider giving up “One Day’s Pay” to

minister to those less fortunate in our city? Next Sunday, August 28, we’ll take

up a special offering with all proceeds going toward this great ministry!

Ministry Values: The Elders have determined, after much prayer and searching of the Scrip-

tures, that the following are our “Ministry Values”:

That Our Community of Believers… 1. Live each day in a way that brings glory to God. 2. Love God wholeheartedly; worshipping him daily in spirit,

truth and humility.

3. Love others selflessly; assuming responsibility to deal with personal sin, resolve conflict, and restore wounded relationships.

4. Reads, studies, and memorizes the Word of God regularly.

5. Witness faithfully in word and deed as the Spirit of God

leads. 6. Mature as disciples of Christ in personal spiritual develop-

ment. 7. Pursue fruitfulness in ministry utilizing spiritual gifts,

training, oversight & support. 8. Serve widows, orphans and others; meeting their physical

and spiritual needs. 9. Spur each other toward spiritual growth including active

small group participation & accountability. 10. Equip and support each other in building healthy marriag-

es and training up children of Godly character. 11. Pray without ceasing. 12. Live generous lives as faithful stewards of God's resources.
