Church News – August 30th

posted in: Church News | 0

“God Is So Good” was our opening hymn as we joined our voices in praise. “Paul’s Conversion” was the title of Pastor Mark Abney’s sermon based on Acts 9:19-25. Paul (Saul) discovered Jesus Christ is truly the Son of God. All the people in Damascus knew Saul had been changed. How? His story and his actions had changed and they were amazed. Do you amaze people with the things you say about Jesus Christ? Paul didn’t keep quiet. There is no such thing as a secret salvation.

Happy anniversary wishes go to Jim and Shirley Bilbruck who celebrated their wedding anniversary on August 20th. We pray they have many more.

Our prayers go out for the following people: Anna Myrtle Hansen, Gary Johnson, Jim Greer, Wayne and Jeri Hagan, Robert Fields, Richard Sherrer and Floretta Manual. Please continue praying for our teachers and students for their safety and success. Praise to our heavenly father who hears and answers our prayers.

Gospel Kids are meeting again on Wednesday nights. This week our lesson was “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and the Fiery Furnace” from Daniel 3. God was with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the fire. Children in kindergarten through sixth grade are invited to attend.

Every Sunday evening at 5:30 pm Celebrate Recovery begins with supper, at 6:30 pm is large group worship and then at 7:30 pm small groups meet. The lesson this week was on taking a daily inventory. We all should reserve a daily time with God for self-examination, Bible reading, and prayer in order to know God and His will for our life and to gain the power to follow His will. “Watch and pray so that you do not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.” Mark 14:38.

Please join us for worship at Calhoun Baptist Church where we are living, sharing, and telling the story of Christ. Come along beside us, grow in your knowledge of the Lord, and find your place in His work. Sunday School begins at 10:00 am with a class for every age. Then join us for worship at 11:00 am. There is always a place for you.
