Welcome to the Family

Open up your arms
and hug a new sister,
or two!

McKayla


Treasure



February brought growth in the family
and we give God the glory for working
through the children's ministry team
to be a link in the chain of people
that led these sisters to Him.

Psalm 19

Taste and see...



1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they display knowledge.

3 There is no speech or language
where their voice is not heard. a]">[a]

4 Their voice b]">[b] goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
In the heavens he has pitched a tent for the sun,

5 which is like a bridegroom coming forth from his pavilion,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.

6 It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes its circuit to the other;
nothing is hidden from its heat.

7 The law of the LORD is perfect,
reviving the soul.
The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy,
making wise the simple.

8 The precepts of the LORD are right,
giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the LORD are radiant,
giving light to the eyes.

9 The fear of the LORD is pure,
enduring forever.
The ordinances of the LORD are sure
and altogether righteous.

10 They are more precious than gold,
than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,
than honey from the comb.

11 By them is your servant warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.

12 Who can discern his errors?
Forgive my hidden faults.

13 Keep your servant also from willful sins;
may they not rule over me.
Then will I be blameless,
innocent of great transgression.

14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.

Stir It Up!

You have 'em.
You talk in 'em.
They talk right back.
And sometimes,
you can truly be yourself in 'em.
Relationships.



Ingredients: You, another, and God.
Combine 'em to create
an even bolder concoction.

When is the last time you really
were a friend.
You chose to be unpopular
and speak the truth, in love?

Relationships are eternal.

Build 'em stronger with interaction
and dynamic conversing.

Stimulate 'em to grow
those involved.

Transform 'em
with encouraging truths from The Word.

Stir it up!




Doug promised to teach on loving one another...
and if you didn't make it on Sunday,
these are the spoons he invited each
of us to take as to be armed for the task at hand.

Hebrews 10:24
"And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds."


So now you know what to do, and how to do it.
Grab you spoon and get to lovin' this week!

Senior Fellowship

Where will you be this Wednesday?

Are you human?
Over 55?
Looking for some pals with whom
to eat,
serve
and grow in The Lord?



Join the Seniors for their luncheon at the church building
Wednesday at 11:30am!

We Gathered

Your kids enjoyed peanut butter and jelly
& hot-off-the-griddle grilled cheeses
along with cheesy chili...
thanks to some grrreat cooks in the kitchen,
we all ate well!

Once the food was consumed,
empty mouths opened and shared about
themselves with neighbors at their table.

Can you remember all the facts your neighbor shared with you?



M&M get-to-know-you...

From hobbies to travel, we know all about you, now!
Thanks for joining your family at Newton Christian
for food, fellowship and fun-facts today!
