Sunday July 20th

There weren't too many of us in attendance this week (many were serving in various teaching positions in the church) but we went ahead with some planning for the Euchre/ Chili cook-off and also discussed the sermon section of lesson 6. I believe we are going to wrap up lesson 6 next week and possibly begin lesson 7.

Sunday July 13th

Today we discussed the questions from lesson #6 and we are hoping to start into the sermon next week.

Some prayers and praises were for:
Carl that was in the hospital (Brad and Bryan's dad)
Sherri's test results were good (Brad and Bryan's mom)
Jane's chemo treatment (Tim's mom)
Bryan and Robin back home
Greg's skin lesions

Please read the sermon in lesson #6 for next Sunday.

I would like to add a prayer request to our class list for a young lady named Faith. She is a sister of one of my co-workers who is having twins and is currently on bed rest since this past weekend. She is on medication to stop the contractions. She is only 31 weeks today (Wednesday July 8). They would like her to make it to 33-34 week before she has the boys.

Her sister's name is Amber.

Thanks Lynne

Prayer Request from Church Office

Dear Friends,

I am sending this Prayer Request because we have been asked to start the Prayer Chain and at this time we do not have an official church prayer chain. If you cannot participate at this time that is okay – just delete.

The request is from Gary Quinn and is for Jay Howell. He is a young man who works with Gary and just had a stroke.

Thank you so much and God Bless you,

Linda [Mayes]

(Krystal - It looks like the invitations worked well. Thanks)

Sunday July 6th

This week there were not very many of us present so, we didn't accomplish much with the lesson. I did try to get this blog figured out so that other classmates can blog as well. Please let me know how it works or what to change.

Some praises and prayers were for:
Matt and Erin had their baby Miah on July 4th
Brad's mom Sherri has tests on Tuesday
Kurt and Carla traveling
Youth mission trip this week
Brad's cousins Bobby and Angie having a c-section Friday
Brad's cousin Wendy who is pregnant
Mike's sister got moved
Bryan's uncle broke his back
Bryan and Robin coming home on Saturday

Please read the sermon for lesson #6 for next Sunday. See you then!

VBS
Isaac not feeling well
Tim's mom
Jen's mom
The Lashley's travelling

We finished up lesson 5 and started lesson 6 on Justification. We'll discuss the questions and the sermon on Sunday. Also, we talked at the beginning about the Sunday School series called Financial Peace University and everyone seemed to support getting involved with that. Here is a little description. The program is called Financial Peace University (http://www.daveramsey.com/fpu/home/) and sounds like a "Money Matters" type of program - Christian based, financially focused. We'll figure out how to pay for it when we get some more information on it. I'll also try to talk to Rev. Larry about sponsoring him in his bike trip from DC to Pittsburgh.
