Dear Friends in Christ:  

 

We live in times of great change where many people are being challenged economically, spiritually, and psychologically. What’s the secret of happiness in the midst of so much stress? We invite you to prayerfully consider attending the next Alpha series in September that will help strengthen our faith and show us how we can live the Christian life with joy and confidence. This new Alpha series is called “CHALLENGING LIFESTYLEand is based on Jesus’ teaching given in the Sermon on the Mount and suggests ways in which we can apply this teaching to our daily lives. It addresses many subjects including:  How to find the secret of happiness, How to change the world around you, How to handle anger, and other subjects.  

 

There are three series of presentations by Nicky Gumbel with each series running 6 sessions in length. Join us for the first six sessions of the “CHALLENGING LIFESTYLE” series beginning:

 

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 19th through SUNDAY, OCTOBER 24th

From 5:00 – 7:00PM beginning with a meal in Fellowship Hall

 

The second series of this trilogy will take place in early 2011 and the third series in the spring of 2011. Make a commitment now to attend and think about inviting a friend Sign-up information will be available in the church lobby or you may register by calling the church office at anytime by leaving your name and simply saying that you are committing to attending the CHALLENGING LIFESTYLE Alpha series beginning on September 19th.  

 

I will be on vacation from August 7th – August 20th. The guest speaker for August 8th will be Sara Wiegner, recent Master of Divinity graduate from Lancaster Theological Seminary and on August 15th, the Rev. Dr. Frank Frischkorn, Executive Minister of the American Baptist Churches of Pennsylvania and Delaware will fill the pulpit. I know you will be blessed by their messages. I wish all of you a continued blessed summer and ask that you remember us in your prayers for a safe journey as we’re on the road to North Carolina to visit my dad and my sister and her husband and also do some sight-seeing.  

 

Yours in Christ,

Blessings, Pastor Mardy
