Connections Weekly Newz‏

My Connections members, Leaders and friends,

Let's continue our bible study series The Story this Sunday! Again, for those who are new to The Story, its an unique, brief and easy format to highlight the entire Bible. The Bible is filled with exciting and intense stories of love, war, birth, death and miracles. There's poetry, culture, and history and theology. Also, what I love reading the Bible is that it offers a glimpse of people in a different time and place who are yet very much like us today! We will be reading the Story about God's Messengers this Sunday. Let's encourage each other to follow Jesus in every area of our life begin this Sunday. The Godly inspiration start at 9am in room#208.

Also, can you keep these people in your prayer this week? Stanley Lenggu( Recovery from Food Poison) and Alex Liao (Travel Mercy and Safety)

Let's continue to Serve God and Above Self.

See you all this Sunday!

My Connections members, Leaders and friends,

We had a great Ministry board meeting last Sunday. I was thrilled that everyone of you have shared your hearts and thoughts about our upcoming fellowship group which will begin this fall. We all agreed that there is a need for it. Also we briefly go over the role and duties for each board/committee position. I feel this board if function correctly will turn our entire Singles ministry into a powerful movement of God within and beyond the walls of our church. That being said I am praying for everyone of you to spend some time reading, praying and considering these positions for the purpose of serving God and His people. The duties for board/committee position file is attached in this email. The ministry board/committee election will take place on Sunday August 3rd. This will give you two months to prepare yourself for the service. Also one important date to put down on your calendar is the spiritual gift inventory meeting which will be held on Sunday July 6th. We will take 30 mins to do the survey and discuss our uniqueness and strengths at the meeting. This will be a fun and team building activity that you don't want to miss.

Don't forge our bible study series The Story this Sunday! Again, for those who are new to The Story, its an unique, brief and easy format to highlight the entire Bible. The Bible is filled with exciting and intense stories of love, war, birth, death and miracles. There's poetry, culture, and history and theology. Also, what I love reading the Bible is that it offers a glimpse of people in a different time and place who are yet very much like us today! We will be reading the Story of a King who had it all this Sunday. Let's encourage each other to follow Jesus in every area of our life begin this Sunday. The Godly inspiration start at 9am in room#208.

Let's continue to Serve God and Above Self.

See you all this Sunday!

Good Morning Connections members, Leaders and friends,

I am back safely from Mexico feeling recharged, refreshed and renewed again. Thanks for all your prayer. I have learned so much this past weekend. Sometime God invite us to do something or go somewhere. We just needed to trust God and accept his invitation. Once you go through the process you will soon see the signs of prosperity in your life. Trust God, He know what's best for you. If you are interested to see what we did last weekend in Tecate Mexico, you can watch this short video.

Well enough saying about trip to Mexco, big reminder to all the guys,"Mother's Day" is coming tomorrow, May 11th.

We're going to have a special day planned during the worship service begin at 10:30am, including a special treat and honor for all mothers and women to receive a gift certificate from Fosselman ice cream.

Also, don't forget to join us for The Story this Sunday as we look at the Book of Samuel. The fun begin at 9am in room#208.

By the way, since it's mother's day tomorrow all afternoon gatherings(Basketball & College Bible study, Connections Bible Study? it's up to you Tom) will be cancelled. So you guys have a chance to take moms out for dinner.
