Good Friday morning Church Requel!
Wow! Do I have some news for you! Amy Watson came up to me during our potluck meal this past Sunday and told me that she wants to be baptized too! Yep, you could have knocked me over with a feather. She continued to tell me that she has felt this way for awhile now. I asked her if she'd like to do it this next Sunday and she immediately answered, "Yes!" Good for you Amy!!!
So... this has me wondering... Who else wants to be baptized? If you know Jesus as your Savior but haven't yet been baptized, I encourage you to take this same step as Amy. Let me know. We can make it happen for you this Sunday. Or we can keep the baptism pool open for another week and baptize you next Sunday!
Let The Sequels Begin! The Sequels is the new name for our student ministry. I'm happy to report that this week Eddie Walker takes the reins of our Church Requel student ministry! Welcome to the CR Staff! Woohoo!
Sunday after church our students (and anyone who wants to join) will kick off our new student ministry this year by going out to putt putt after church. The cost of putt putt and the cost of ice cream is covered. Just head over to Kelly's on Main Street at 1pm. See more details below.
The following Sunday - September 12th - will be our first Sunday morning student class. Eddie has been busy getting everything prepared. I'm truly excited for our young people... and for Eddie.
Sunday Morning Student Ministry Dedication. In fact I'm so excited about our new student ministry that this will be the topic of our sermon conversation this Sunday. I want to tell you how God has worked in the life of Church Requel to bring about this new ministry. It's a great story and I can't wait to share it with you. For those of you who wish to read my sermon ahead of time, you can find it in your Bible app under Events as well as here - http://bible.com/events/48758390. Afterward I want to bring Eddie up front and have us all gather round him and dedicate him and our students for God's blessing.
The Songs We Sing. I am also looking forward to our worship time together this Sunday morning, Here are the songs we plan to sing: "Death Was Arrested" by North Point Worship; "See A Victory" by Elevation Worship; "Champion" by Bethel Music; "King Of Love" by Jesus Culture; and (NEW) Believe For It" by CeCe Winans.
I can't wait to hear our ladies sing this new song. I really feel that this song captures what we have experienced at Church Requel this summer: "Move the immovable, break the unbreakable, from the impossible, we'll see a miracle, God we believe for it!"
For those of you who will be watching online, you can watch live either on Facebook or on YouTube. Here is the YouTube link - https://youtu.be/baK3c11XNKY.
I love you all more than you can know! Hope to see you one way or the other this Sunday morning. Pastor Mark
