Sunday December 1, 2013

Happy Thanksgiving week! I hope that you are able to enjoy some time with the people that you love this week.  Also spend time thanking God for all of the blessings you have been given!

This Sunday we start the Advent season, I will begin by preaching about Joy! Which is one of the gifts of Christmas.  Come as we kick off the season with a service of celebration and joy and a special surprise gift for the church.  You won't want to miss it!

You are loved,
Pastor Shannon

Sunday November 24, 2013

This past Sunday we talked about Stewardship as Time Management.  Does God care what we do with our time? The answer is yes! Time is a gift and we need to use it for God's purposes. 

This Sunday we will conclude our Stewardship series by talking about Money and Assets.  As we have been discussing from Psalm 24:1, everything we have is God's.  We are called to manage it well and be good stewards of the gifts we have been given.  We have so much trouble being good stewards of our money and stuff! But it is not out of duty that we give, it comes from our thankfulness from the generosity of God, who has blessed us so richly.  Come as we discuss it. 

On Sunday evening we will worship together with churches from all over Lordstown.  It will be a good time of fellowship! Join us at 7pm and stay after for refreshments.

Sunday November 10, 2013

Hello! I hope this finds you well.  It's coming very quickly on my favorite time of year - the holiday season.  There is so much to be grateful for as we contemplate Thanksgiving. 

On Sunday, I will start a stewardship series.  It's always good to remember that we need to manage our resources well, especially when we understand that all that we have comes from a generous God.  On Sunday I will talk about "Stewardship as a Lifestyle."  It's not just a choice we make once in awhile, it's who we are called to be holistically. 

Remember that you are loved!
Pastor Shannon
