Dear covenant family,
What then shall we
say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a hymn, or a word of
instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. All of these must be
done for the strengthening of the church.- 1 Cor 14:26
We look forward to hearing testimonies from Byron and
Chrystal Huebschen, Steve Vollertsen and maybe one or two others this coming
Sunday as well as some special music by Wanda Pruett. It is so exciting when
God brings different people together in His Body, because we all are image
bearers of Him. With each of us, we get a bigger picture of who He is. May God
continue to bring us together so we can show His Glory!
Sunday School: Gary Pruett will teach Sunday School on the
book of Philemon.
Small Group: Because of the holiday weekend, we will not
have small group, but we plan to end our service with an optional pizza, pasta
and salad lunch as a church family at Cici’s restaurant. Enjoy spending your
lunch with your church family. Happy Holiday ! Look
forward to see you this Sunday!
Parking Lot expansion
Have you noticed how we’ve been running out of parking space
lately? It is a nice problem to have! We want our visitors to feel welcome by
providing adequate parking. The deacons have come up with a plan to expand our
parking lot by moving some dirt and adding some gravel while at the same time
addressing some of the (water) draining issues on our property. Bill Bratberg
and Bud Masson will be available this Sunday and the next to take anyone on a
tour after the church service to show you the plans and answer any questions
you may have. We will take up a special offering on Sunday, September 16 to
take this step of faith. Estimated cost: $1200. We’d ask you to pray and ask
the Lord what you can give to help us reach out to more people. Anything
received above the estimated amount will be used for our ongoing building
needs.
Ministry
Opportunities with Children’s Church and Nursery
Help young families and children feel welcome and ministered
to at CBC by helping provide an excellent children’s ministry. Here is how you
can help:
Nursery Workers – help take care of infants age 0-2
Children’s Church – assist any of the current workers during
the main service. An assistant doesn’t have to prepare a lesson, but would
simply be there to support the children worker by helping in any way necessary.
Sign up by contacting Kari van Raalten or Ann Bratberg
