Have you noticed how many people attend our services that you don’t recognize?

Let’s solve that problem. A new program is being developed that just may help. One Program/Two Solutions

Three couples will host one meal per month where three new members are invited. That’s phase one. Then after 3 months, the three couples will even switch around, so that even the inviting couples meet addi-tional new couples. Meet Adam in the foyer this morning and begin meeting our newer members.

NEW SUNDAY MORNING

ADULT CLASSES BEGIN NEXT SUNDAY!!

That’s right!! Next Lord’s Day, September 6, marks the begin-ning of our Fall Quarter in our Adult Classes. You will find the different class offerings on the front page of the bulletin. I hope that you will plan to begin the new quarter by choosing one of these classes and being in Bi-ble Class EVERY Sunday! We have classes for all ages beginning at birth (cradle roll) and continuing through the adult years. SPECIAL NOTE: As you can see, the “Growing Families” class will be studying the book of II Samuel this next quarter. And, the boys and girls who will be participat-ing in the Bible Bowl part of LTC will be studying II Samuel. John Anderson, one of the teachers in the “Growing Families” class, would like to invite any parents of these Bible Bowl kids to attend this Sunday morning class in order to help their children learn the facts of II Samuel. Sounds like a good idea to me! I want to thank those men who have taught our classes this past quarter: Adam Elliott, William Long, Rudy Munoz, John Anderson, Doug Binnion, Terry Justice, Jimmy Carlile, Bill Powers, Carl Petty, Frank Bartlett, Jeff Wickham, David Thomas, and Glen Johnston. It takes time to prepare for a class. It takes dedication. We appreciate the efforts of each one of these who have served in this way during the Summer months -- Don
