UPCOMING EVENTS
WOMEN OF PURPOSE SPRING TOUR
Ladies, mark your calendars now for the upcoming Spring Tours. The tour will be in our location at Christian Life A/G on Saturday, April 29. Cost per person is $30: Students, Single moms and Seniors cost is $20. It includes a boxed lunch. See the sign up sheet for the breakout groups.
NEW ADULT BIBLE STUDY
The adults have begun studying the book “Soul Detox-Clean Living in a Contaminated World” as our Wednesday night lesson. As the title suggests, we will delve into topics such as overcoming toxic emotions and behaviors and we will discover how God’s transforming power can take us to clean, pure and focused living.
PASTORAL CREDENTIALING
As was mentioned previously, the Assemblies of God has a program wherein if the local church’s Pastor and Deacon Board determines that if a person in our fellowship has the call of God on their life, then the local church can issue a “Commissioned Minister” credentials that the A/G and the legal authorities recognize. They will be afforded all the rights and privileges of an Credentialed Minister. These credentials are only valid in the issuing church. The deacon board has determined and the district office has approved that Keith Miller and Luis Nunez have met that requirement. NEXT Sunday, March 19, we will have an installation service to officially welcome Keith (Lynette) and Luis (Edith) as our “Pastors”. There will be a light welcome luncheon following the service. In order to prepare for the luncheon, we are asking that you please sign up if you would like to attend.
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
Our VBS is scheduled July 10-14 from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm. Our goal this year is to reach as many children in our community as possible. The theme for 2017 is “Maker Fun Factory”. In order for this to be a success we will need your help! There are several sign up sheets listing all the areas of our need in the lower foyer. Once you sign up, our leadership team will be in contact with you as we plan for this tremendous outreach!
YARD SALE
Yes, it’s that time again! Time to start planning for our annual WOP Yard Sale! To make this a grand success, we will need many helpers. There is a sign up sheet on the women’s table in the upper foyer. If you are able to be a part of this, please sign up! It always promises to be a great fund-raiser and time of fellowship. While we appreciate all of your donations, PLEASE DO NOT DROP OFF ANY ITEMS UNTIL APRIL 2nd. The church does not have room to hold all the items until the yard sale. Thank you for your cooperation!
BODY NEWS
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT. . .
We presented Dover Assembly’s vision and plan for the future. We unveiled our new logo and introduced our 3 year strategic plan for your church. Our condensed vision is:
Connecting to God, Building People, Offering Hope!
It will be accomplished through the pattern God initiated in the book of Acts. We have the mandate of going into our community, we have the power of the Holy Spirit to enable us, now we are being intentional about our efforts. As the weeks progress, we will roll out new goals and plans to accomplish our great commission. We want everyone to be an integral part of this vision God has given our leadership!
NATIONAL BGMC DAY
TODAY is National BGMC Day.
Last year our goal was $1500 and we raised $1656.24! PTL!
Our total BGMC goal for 2017 is $1700. Let’s get a great start today on reaching that!! I know we will meet and beat this year’s goal!
Thank you for giving to Boys and Girls Missionary Challenge!
HOSS’S FUNDRAISING EVENT
Special thanks to all who helped our teens by visiting Hoss’s last Sunday. Emerge Youth raised about $100 towards their upcoming convention. We appreciate your prayers and support!
ACTS 2 JOURNEY
As part of this program, the Assemblies of God leadership is asking each of us to participate in an on-line survey. They want to assess the effectiveness of this program as well as receive any insights and feedback from you, the church member. The survey will be between March 26 and April 9. Once we receive the details, we will pass them on to you. We would like everyone to participate if possible. Thank you for your help!
