MAKE IT AN INSPIRATIONAL MOMENT! “Memorial Day Prayer"
(Posted May 26, 2012)
Dear Heavenly Father,
As we remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy every day, we think of how they have followed in the footsteps of your son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. Please hold our servicemen and women in your strong arms. Cover them with your sheltering grace and your presence as they stand in the gap for our protection.
We also remember the families of our troops. We ask for your unique blessings to fill their homes, and we pray your peace, provision, and strength will fill their lives.
May the members of our armed forces be supplied with courage to face each day and may they trust in the Lord's mighty power to accomplish each task. Let our military brothers and sisters feel our love and support.
In the name of Jesus. Amen.
Prayer Concerns are listed and available on the table in the vestibule. Please take one home and remember our church family and friends in prayer.
In case of inclement weather watch for our church’s announcement on WBTV and WSOC.
BREAD
Perhaps you have noticed that there has been freshly baked bread available in the foyer after the service on Sundays for the past few weeks. This bread is to share with our guests. One of our members has begun baking this bread to share each week and any that we don’t give out on Sunday has been delivered to members and friends during the following week. If you are a guest and would like a loaf of bread, please accept it as a gift from us. If you know of someone who’d benefit from a loaf of home cooked hospitality, please take a loaf to share in the name of Christ.
FLOWERS
If you would like to place flowers (live or silk) on the Lord’s Table on a special Sunday, please sign the flower calendar on the wall by the pastor’s study. If given in memory or honor of someone, or a special event, please let Wraye Rhyne know so that we may note the special occasion in the bulletin.
Thank You, The Flower Committee
