My95 Begins This Week!!

My95 begins this week!!

"How can I participate?" you might wonder.

Well, I'm glad you asked! There are basically 4 ways to participate:

1. My95 will include a sermon series that begins (March 1) and goes through April 5 (Palm Sunday). You can participate by sharing in our worship during these weeks.

2. My95 will include a daily devotional that has a passage of Scripture, a brief story, and a prayer. The devotions begin Monday, March 2, and are for 5 weeks. You can pick up a copy in worship Sunday, March 1, or we can send you the devotions electronically (e-mail).

3. My95 will include a weekly Bible study. Most of the Bible study groups will meet in the homes of church members. Pearl and Pastor Spike have organized the church into groups. If you do not know which group you are in, please see an usher Sunday morning. The ushers will have copies of the people in each group.

4. My95 will conclude on April 5th with a covered-dish supper that Sunday evening. We will enjoy a wonderful meal and fellowship around the table, we will share in worship, and we will share ways in which God blessed us and inspired us to Share the Joy of Life in Christ through My95.

My 95 is Coming!

My95 is coming. ... What is it? ... Glad you asked!

My95 is an opportunity for us to discover opportunities that God gives us each day to Share the Joy of Life in Christ in our daily activities and with the people where we live, move and hang out.
Beginning March 1st, Spike will begin a sermon series. The Scripture lessons for the Sunday sermons will then be the lessons for discussion at our home Bible studies. A number of church members will host Bible studies in their homes for My95. The weekly home Bible study will last five weeks. Spike and Pearl have organized home groups according to age and neighborhoods. Your hosts will be in tough in the next week with more info on your group.

In addition, starting March 2nd, we will provide daily devotions for church members to use Monday through Friday of the five weeks of My95.

The daily devotionals and weekly Bible studies can be picked up at our Fat Tuesday pancake supper (February 24th) and the following Sunday, March 1. Also, the devotional and weekly Bible studies can be sent to you electronically (just let me know if you would like for us to send you a copy electronically).
