Just Around the Corner

June 4th, 2008 | VBS is just around the corner. We have been praying, planning, pleading, and promoting, but it is here.  Pray for GOOD WEATHER.  We anticipate large crowds and we have limited space inside.  We need to be able to spill out into the great outdoors.  Pray for GOOD HEALTH.  As I remind you almost every year, VBS is a bone weary experience for the workers.  It is a high energy, fun packed, close quarters, big responsibility kind of week that can take its toll on you.  However, most of all we need you to pray for GOOD PLANTING.  In all we do, we pray that seeds are being planted in all who attend that will bear much fruit.  Our theme this year revolves around the fruit of the Spirit.  What an opportunity we have!   DEACON ELECTION is just around the corner. It is time for you to nominate men to serve in this critical role.  Ballots and requirements are located throughout the church.  Nominations will be accepted through June 29.  If you have any questions, just contact the church office at 662-890-2452.   SUMMER is just around the corner. Although the official start of summer does not come until the middle of June, for all practical purposes, we are already there.  The biggest schedule change for us is our Wednesday activities.  You will find that we have made a time change, a format change and a name change.  Our start up time will be 6:30 and we have combined all our different classes into one.  Bro. Grant will be leading a study on spiritual gifts after we share our prayer requests each week.   The only exception to this will be “Discovering DeSoto Hills” which will continue to meet in the Prayer Tower at 6:45 and the mid week prayer group which will continue to meet in M 215.  So I hope you will join us as we “break out” and do something a little different on Wednesdays this summer at DeSoto Hills.
