Dear North Christian Family of Faith, Love, and Joy:
“I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy…”. (Philippians 1:3-4)
Thank you all for your love, prayers, and partnership in the ministries of North Christian Church. We are God’s Family.
We are joyfully in the month of June! Already? Praise The Lord! The first Sunday went very well, as Sharon and I watched our worship podcast, from our home, on Facebook. Our thanks goes to Mary, the Praise Team, Christine for the Children’s Moment (Great lesson !), Butch and the Elders who handled Communion and announcements; and, of course, our friend, Todd Faulkner, who brought the morning message. As usual, great sermon, Todd! (Loved it.)
To God be The Glory!
As you may know, I am continuing to recover from oral surgery. The Prosthodontist is giving me a “thumbs up”. She says I’m doing better than she anticipated. I told her that it is because of all the prayers. 🙂 She agrees! Thank you all, again. Also, Sharon is the greatest wife in the world, as she has been taking such good care of me. She is a great blessing…more than usual. I thank God for her!!
For the rest of this month, we are looking forward to Youth Sunday this Sunday, June 14th. They always do a wonderful job. Let’s be Praying for them. Father’s Day Sunday is in two weeks, June 21st. We are doing two special things on that day: First, for the Children’s Moment, we are asking if any child has something special they would like to say or do for Father’s Day, please let me know by Wednesday, June 17th.
Also, for the sermon/message on Father’s Day, we would like to receive questions from the Men (and especially the Dads) about what concerns they have in today’s world…about any topic! We will take those questions that the men give us, and answer them according to what God says from His Word, the Bible. Please submit your questions to me no later than Wednesday, June 17th.
You can text me your questions at 765-425-3409, or email your questions to me at [email protected].
Thanks, guys. We are looking forward to what’s on your hearts these days and discovering God’s answers together on Father’s Day. The last Sunday of this month, we will be doing a two-part sermon series on - “America, May God Shed His Grace on Thee!” How thankful and prayerful we are, to be Americans!
Let’s not forget our 250th Celebration Sunday on July 5th. We will have our regular worship service that day, followed by an outdoor picnic and singing celebration on the church grounds. If you would like to be a part of the program; with a song, a reading, or another Special presentation, please let Elder Butch Baker or myself know as soon as possible. Thank you, and may God continue to bless His people at N.C.C.!
Love you All, Pastor John
