Sunday, June 14

Photo I took of a flower in my backyard this week...
just wanted to share it with you.

Wow, what a great service Sunday and what a great choir practice!!! You are an amazing group of people. I love you all so much and thank God for you DAILY!

Here's the 4-1-1 on what's happening this week. First of all, remember it's the week of the church picnic and beach day at Ft. Desoto. We are dressing down on Sunday however as we talked about on Sunday at rehearsal, modesty guidelines are in place as usual!!! This means (to be specific!) no cleavage, no bare backs, no strapless or thin straps, no see through material, yada yada. You know the guidelines. If you are out of code, your section leader will let you know and you'll have to make a change before service time, so please come dressed within modesty guidelines the first time. Jeans and t-shirts, etc. are encouraged and acceptable for this Sunday morning. Shorts are not. I do realize most all of us are going to change into shorts to go over to Ft. Desoto, and many in the congregation will have them on, but we don't want them on the platform. Thanks for adhering to this. If you have any question about what you want to wear Sunday and it's appropriateness for the platform, give me a holler this week and let me know your plan and I'll let you know if it's alright. There is no color coordination this Sunday, it's just your choice.

Songs for this week are:
Trading My Sorrows
God is Great
Your Name
God of this City

Choir Song: How Precious is the Blood

Last call for background check forms for the prison is this Wednesday night! Thank you!
