Student/Kids Ministry Corner It's that time of the year again. We're looking at our volunteer rotations for the New Year in both Kid's and Student Ministries. If you are interested in beginning to volunteer with either of these amazing ministries either on Sunday Mornings or Wednesday nights we'll have a sign up sheet on the resource table in the hallway. If you have been serving in these ministries we'll keep your name in the rotation unless you let me know otherwise. Thank you all so much for being a part of our kids lives and I'm looking forward to serving with you in the coming year! Lee

Scripture Reading and Morning Prayer………….....….Al Folsom 31 “Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make

a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of

Judah,32 not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the

day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt,

My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,”

declares the Lord. 33 “But this is the covenant which I will make with

the house of Israel after those days,” declares the Lord, “I will put

My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be

their God, and they shall be My people.
