"Bro Roy's Remarks"

Can you believe it! Summer is almost over. School begins in less than a month. It has been a summer full of activities; but as summer comes to a close, there is even more we need to do.

Check the rest of this newsletter for a list of some of the activities.

The nominating committee is working hard. There are some places that still need to be filled. The greatest joy you have in your Christian life will be finding your place of service and using it as a faithful witness. Don't wait to be asked, volunteer.

September 2nd - New Sunday school year
September 9th - Harvest Day & high attendance in SS

I ask you to pray for this new church year to be one of growth, where many people will be saved and for Christian growth in their relationship with God.

May God receive all of the praise and glory.

Bro. Roy

Please pray for this committee, for your place of service, and our church as we seek to enlist workers for the Lord's work! Jesus said, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.
