Woodlawn Children's Ministry

I am very excited that Karen and Kathy will be taking over the children’s ministry.  It is an important part of the church and a vital part of our future.  I will still be here and I plan to stay actively involved.  I appreciate and am thankful for the gifts each one of you shares with Woodlawn.
     For Christ,
     Amy

Announcements

Today is the last day for the "Cookie Jar Shower" honoring the marriage of Jerry Oden and Melissa Stanford.  Look for the cookie jar on the table in the foyer and add money, your favorite recipe, or your best wishes for this couple.

Everyone be sure to pick up your corrected pictorial directory information sheet from a table in the foyer.  All members of the Woodlawn congregation are entitled to a pictorial directory whether you were here for the photo portion or not.  If you have not picked up your copy, give Barbara a call in the office and we‘ll arrange for you to get it at the next worship service.  Or feel free to stop by the office during the week.

Check the bulletin board across from the office for times and details of invitations to the Stephen’s wedding reception and various high school graduations.

Teachers Needed!
We are in needed of teachers for the nursery and the 2 & 3 year-old class on Sunday mornings.  If you are interested, please contact Karen, Kathy or Amy.

Christians consider themselves committed to Christ.  But what does that mean?  Consider one man’s exhortation:

"God is looking for men and women whose hearts are firmly fixed on Him and who will continually trust Him for all he desires to do with their lives.

God is ready and eager to work more powerfully than ever through His people, and the clock of the centuries is striking the eleventh hour.  The world is watching and waiting to see what God can do through a life committed to Him.

And not only is the world waiting but God himself awaits to see who will be the most completely devoted person who has ever lived; willing to be nothing so Christ may be everything; fully accepting God's purposes as his own; receiving Christ's humility, faith, love, and power yet never hindering God's plan but always allowing Him to continue His miraculous work." C.H.P - Streams in the Desert

Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus .. .. ..
