Lebanon Road Report 052409

Lebanon Road Report May 24, 2009 Attendance was “off,” but spirits were high this weekend at Lebanon Road. Mainly due to the Memorial Day holiday, we were down to just 307 in worship on Sunday. While we want to see that number jump back up soon (as in this coming Sunday!), we were glad for each worshiper, including many visitors. Also among that number was our new summer youth intern, Chris LaFever. Chris comes to us from Ashville, North Carolina, by way of Freed-Hardeman University. We are glad he is with us and we know he’ll do a great work encouraging and teaching our young people alongside J.D. Our sermon Sunday morning dealt with service, and we “tied it in” with Memorial Day. We looked at John 13, and the “steps” Jesus took to serve in that grand chapter. Sunday night, our young men led the service. Austin Nichols spoke, as did Christ LaFever. David Smith led our singing, while Blake Biggs and Bryan Schow led our prayers. Shane Williams took care of the PowerPoint for the service. Each of these young men did a great job and the service was uplifting and encouraging. Coming This Week... May God continue to bless them with the desire to serve Him in this way. Wednesday: Bible classes (7:00).

Sunday: Worship 9AM; Bible Classes 10:20 AM; Worship 6 PM Sunday night: Senior Reception (bring finger foods)

Beyond That… June 14-17: VBS (AD 33 Tours)—have you invited others?

Our Vacation Bible School is rapidly approaching. It will be here on June 14-17, when we will be looking at the world in which Jesus lived under the title “AD 33 Tours: Walking where Jesus Walked.” We’ll try to say more about it as it nears, but please make sure your calendar is marked and that you are inviting others. It’s going to be a tremendous week of study! Don’t miss any opportunity to serve this week, and make sure you are here Sunday for worship and for our Senior reception Sunday night.
