THIS SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 6: NEW TEACHING SERIES STARTS Church !

Have you found reading the Bible difficult or confusing? We get it. Our new series, called 'LISTEN TO THE BROTHER' is based on the Book of James.

James was one of Jesus younger brothers, and he wrote a very practical book of 'do's and dont's' that is very clear, easily readable, and easy to understand and actually apply to our lives!

A few of the themes we will encounter this Sunday (Sept. 6):

* How to deal with difficult trials and tests in life
* What to do when we don't know what to do
* What kind of people God likes the most
* The importance of 'hanging on', persevering in faith
* How to deal with tasty temptations
* Managing our feelings of anger and bitterness
* The importance of actually DOING things, rather than just knowing things.

All these teaching points will be helped along by good storytelling, and we invite you to come along for a new journey with our loving, kind, and welcoming church family.

Blessings to all . . . maybe invite someone to come with you!

Service begins at 10:00 AM sharp, and we are located 7 miles from Shippensburg at 7900 Roxbury Road, Lurgan PA.

THiS SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, @ Lurgan Church, it is COMMUNION SUNDAY.

Friends, we receive communion on the first Sunday every other month. This is a special time to be reminded of how deeply the Lord loves us, that He was willing to yield and sacrifice His life in order to save ours; that we might one day inherit the beauty and peace of heaven, as forgiven people.

Churches have many varying standards (requirements) before receiving communion.

The Bible says we should receive it after 'examining ourselves' and ensuring our heart is right before the Lord. We provide time to do this before the bread and cup are served.

You are welcome to join us out on the western frontier of our beautiful valley, seven short miles west of Shippensburg, 7900 Roxbury Road. Service begins at 10 AM sharp!

DOES THIS CONCERN YOU? (DEATH?)

Many of us have feared death.

We seem to know that one day, death comes calling on all of us.

And yet, we try to avoid it . . . delay it . . . cheat it.

How can we overcome this fear of illness, aging, and death, and be SET FREE to truly LIVE and enjoy the days we are given?

How can we come to the place where we can LAUGH AT DEATH and no longer be concerned over it?

That is the topic of our MESSAGE at Lurgan Church this last Sunday of May, May 31st. The service begins at 10 AM sharp.

Please feel free to come for a comforting and entertaining message as we consider some wisdom from the Psalms - and from the Lrrd Jesus.

Blessings to all . . . live with JOY!

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD.

G'day! This Sunday, May 3rd, at Lurgan Church, we will explore the 23RD PSALM, you know the one, starts out with 'The Lord is my shepherd.'

This is such a well-known psalm, penned by a man named David. But when? Was it when he was a boy, a shepherd, a musician, a warrior, a King, an elderly person looking back . . . we will explore the 'when.'

Though Psalm 23 is well known, it is not always 'well understood.'

What does it mean 'I shall not want'? We want many things!

What does it mean 'He makes me lie down in green pastures'? Our human instinct is often 'YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!'

It will be an interesting, insightful lesson, followed by the receiving of Communion.

You are invited to join us, 10:00 AM, at Lurgan Church, this Sunday, May 3, 7900 Roxbury Road, 7 miles west of Shippensburg.

WHY BOTHER WITH COMMUNION?

This Sunday, May 3rd Lurgan Church, we will share the Last Supper, also called 'Holy Communion' together. You are, of course, invited to join us for this special time!

We do this on the first Sunday of the month, six times per year, every other month. Some feel this is too often. Some feel it is not often enough.

Why bother at all?

Here's some reasons why it is important:

1) Communion is communing, it is community, it is the togetherness of Jesus people. Remembering Jesus and what He has done for us is the one thing Christians have in common. It is a special time of remembering - and being loved - together.

2) Receiving communion is a vital reminder of how deeply Jesus loves us, and it builds our love and faithfulness towards Him. It strengthens us in our faith - and commitment - to Christ.

3) Communion reminds us that we are forgiven. And that we are deeply loved by the Lord - even if we are not forgiven and not loved much by anyone else.

4) Jesus, and the Word of God, the Bible - encourage us to enjoy this sacred meal together regularly, to stay connected to the One who has given His life for us.

To sum it up, Communion is a special and meaningful time. The biblical invitation applies to you: 'Come, taste and see . . . that the Lord is GOOD!'
