Congregational News and Notes

 

Welcome to worship on this Lord’s Day!  This morning we continue the series on the books of the Bible looking at the book of  Deuteronomy.  This evening we consider the means God reveals himself to us as professed in the Belgic Confession.  Next Sunday a special offering to assist Glenn Bolkema will be received.

 

Our Christian sympathy to Jo Toering in the recent loss of her sister, Catherine Van Beek.

 

Thank you to all the women who helped with GEMS Theme Night.  We couldn’t have done it without you!

Council Notes:

-          The Council filled out the Classis credentials for the March 1 meeting in Volga.  Pastor Tim and Larry

De Jongh will attend.

-          The church will assist Glenn Bolkema in a remodeling project that should help enable him to remain

in his home.  An offering will be received next week and a fund raiser planned; volunteer labor may

also be needed.

-          A proposal for a new retractable screen, projector, computer and software was presented and approved.

There will be a need for some additional electrical work to enable this to proceed.  Cost is around

$14,500.  Current fund balance is around $5,500.  We are waiting on a denominational grant which we

hope will be $1,000.  We will have more offerings and borrow any additional fund needed.

-          We will be providing a room in the church for kids to spend time in.  Donations of games or toys will

be welcomed.

-          A special game time will follow the pot luck on Communion Sunday, March 4.

-          A Gideon representative is expected on February 26th.  An offering is scheduled.

-          The next Council meeting is moved up a week to February 29.

-          Dennis Kroll of SWCH visited the council to thank the church for its support of Christian education

and urged us to continue to do so.

The DVD “Fireproof” was donated to the library but is missing.  Please return if you checked it out.
