When Jesus heard it, he

saith unto them, They that

are whole have no need of

the physician, but they that

are sick: I came not to call

the righteous, but sinners to

repentance.

all see the wanted posters searching for fugitives on the run.

Below is our wanted poster for our worship ministry.

Wanted – people to add to our worship team

People who get excited about worshiping God.

People who have the time to meet every Tuesday 5:30-6:30 P.M.

People who don’t take their own ideas too seriously and can give

and receive discussion that helps improve our worship life.

People who can approach worship both reverently and radically!

People who are willing to learn how to use our worship software

and sound system to help run the audio visual components of our

worship service.

Contact me, or Mark Lamb, Janie & Gary Austin if interested.

th Church Festival

Also remember to mark your calendars to be here on July 24th

for our church festival. We will have the Fincher gospel group

to sing, hotdogs and hamburgers grilling and activities for the

kids. This is a great opportunity for our folks to invite friends to

meet members of our church and experience Christ through our

hospitality of music, food, and friendship. Please be watching

the bulletin for the final information on times in which these activities will occur. Jerry Leach

and RC Owen are leading this project.

July

Church Festival

July 24th will be a special Sunday for our church. We are planning a cook-out starting at 4:30 pm;

eating starting at 5:00 pm; and gospel singing provided by The Flinchers

starting at 6:00 pm

We are considering some other activities for the children and want to open this event to our entire community as well. Two things that you need to do to help make this event a huge success:

1. Plan to be here July 24th 2. Contact me or Jerry Leach if you have ideas about

what we can add to this day to make it more inviting to reach out to the un-churched.

Exploring the Bible in a Flash

The “Good News” Sunday School Class has begun a

book on which to go into an in-depth study. This will

begin promptly at 9:45 am each Sunday morning.
