We finally made it to the top of
our hymn count-downl The mtmber
one hymn, for the second year in a
row, is "How Great Thou Art."
This Sunday, Sept. 5, the scrilP
tures for worship will be Psalms
148; Romans 13;8-10: and Mathew
18;15-20. The sermon title is
"Mind Your Threes and Twos." We
will consider Jesus' claim that when
two or three of us gather together in
his name, whatever we ask for in
prayer will be ours. Can that really
be true? What does it mean?
Our choir will sing "Father We
Adore You." and Chelsea Cobb will
sing a solo as an offertory.
We are still organizing Disciple
Bible studies for this fall. If you
are interested in this exciting study
aimed at resourein8 you to live as
a disciple in God's world, please
let us know soon. We need a
few more folks to have enough
to form a group. Possibilities are
an evening Disciple I group, a
day-time Disciple 1 group, and an
evening Disciple II group.

Nehemiah 8:10 For the joy of the
Lord is your strength.
Psalms 30:5 Weeping may endure
for a night, but joy commeth in the
morning.
Tears are often the telescope
whi men see into heaven.
You cannot glorify God better than
by a calm and joyous life.
How to Worship
Be silent,
Be thght,
Be revereat,
For this is the house of the Lord.
Before the service, speak to God.
During the service, let GOd speak
to yoU.
After the service, speak to one
anotler.
Laughter is a tranquilizer with no
side effects.
