Announcement of Ministries, 10/9
PREPARING FOR THE LORD’S DAY | As you anticipate our worship gathering on the Lord’s Day, consider praying for our service, reading the Text for the sermon, and preparing your heart and mind for worship with the Body of Christ. On Sunday, we’ll sing Christ the True and Better Adam, How Deep the Father’s Love for Us, Jesus Thank You, All I Have is Christ. Pastor Bryan will preach Romans 5:6-11.
CANNED FOOD DRIVE | We’re collecting canned food for the Concern Center. Please bring your canned goods this Sunday, next Sunday, or to any mid-week ministry this week. There will be a collection spot in the lobby.
FAMILY MEETING | Our next family meeting is right after our morning worship service on October 9th. We will be presenting new members, sharing those who are no longer in membership, and announcing some dates for budget conversations prior to the November family meeting and vote on the budget.
SENIOR LUNCHEON | The next Senior Luncheon is scheduled for Monday, October 10th, at 11:30am in the RLC Fellowship Hall. The food is provided. Please join us for fellowship and fun, and bring a friend. Please RSVP on Realm or sign up in the lobby so we get a good count for the food.
PIZZA WITH THE PASTORS | Are you new to Redeeming Life Church? Do you have questions? Join Pastor Bryan and Pastor Josiah for lunch and conversation and story sharing. Our next Pizza with the Pastors is October 23rd, following the Sunday morning service, at the church building. If you’re interested, please let Pastor Bryan or Pastor Josiah know so we can be sure to have lunch for you!
ACTS 11 FUND | In Acts 11, the church in Antioch took up an offering to help the brothers and sisters in the church in Jerusalem. A famine hit the community and they were struggling. We use our “Acts 11 Fund” to help brothers and sisters in need. Right now, our fund is low. If you would like to donate to the Acts 11 Fund, log into your Realm account and select the giving tab. Select the Acts 11 Fund in the dropdown options. If you’re not a Realm user, you may visit https://onrealm.org/rlc/give/now. You may also give my check or cash in a marked envelope. Be sure to indicate “Acts 11” on the memo line. We appreciate your faithful giving.
CONNECTION CARDS | Our Connection Card is a bookmark with important contact information printed on the back. You’ll find links to join Realm, sign up for RightNow Media, share prayer requests, contact the pastors, and more. Please share these bookmarks with your friends.
CHILDREN TAG NUMBER | Parents, when you check your child into children’s ministry, you get two tags. The one with your child’s name goes on your child. The other tag has a unique code that matches the code on your child’s tag. It is extremely important that you safeguard this tag. You will need that tag to have your child released back to you after the service. And if a diaper needs changes or there’s some other reason you are needed, we will post that code on the screen during the service. That’s an important tag!
JOIN THE MUSIC TEAM | The musicians and AV techs leading us in musical worship are a great group, but they’re praying for a few more talented people. If God is calling you to lead our faith-family to worship the Lord through music or AV work, please contact Robbie.
TEXT GIVING | If you would like to worship through faithful giving and use text messaging to do it, send “RLC” to 73256 for a form you can use from your phone. You will promptly receive a response with instructions and a secure link to follow. The system will send you a secure link to complete your transaction and send you a giving receipt. This will also allow your donation to be tracked in our system so we can provide you with tax info in January.
CSB BIBLE TRANSLATION | While we love many Bible translations at Redeeming Life Church, officially, we preach out of the Christian Standard Bible (CSV) most of the time. It’s not that we think this translation is perfect or the best, but that we settled on a specific translation, so you could bring a Bible and follow along if that’s your preference. We also like both the CSB Study Bible and the ESV Study Bible, although we don’t argue that either are perfect.
