WEATHER WARNING
No decision has been made about Sunday’s activities yet. The church leadership will confer Saturday morning and make a decision. About noon on Saturday, I will send an email, send a text and put a statement on the church website as to if we will have activities as normal, if they will be modified or if things will be cancelled.
SUNDAY WORSHIP
Jan 18 @ 10:00a
As part of the final words of the Old Testament, Malachi penned, “Look, I am going to send you the prophet Elijah before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes” (4:5). When Luke wrote his Gospel, more than 400 years had passed since Malachi’s time without a word of prophecy or any sign of a prophet of God. But the long darkness was about to experience sunrise. As we continue our study of the Gospel According to Luke, this Sunday we will look at Luke 1:5-25 and foretelling of The Birth of John the Baptist.
SOUPER BOWL COMPETITION
Our Souper Bowl competition is underway. Again, I am sorry for the confusing about last week’s totals. I will be my best to make sure that doesn’t happen again. Below are the corrected games for this Sunday.
CONTRIBUTION STATEMENTS
You should have received your 2025 Contribution Statement in your inbox this week. If you have not received it, please contact Renee (615.896.0490 x1).

OLD FUNITURE
We still have the table, mirror (rectangle), mirror (oval) and picture from the foyer renovation in storage. If you would like any of those items, please let me know. Otherwise, they will be donated to a charity.
