Sunday, March 31, 2024 Announcements

Transition Prayer Requests (from Elders): 1. Give praise that God encouraged and strengthened the Screening Committee. They have nearly completed their interviews (maybe one left to do) of the congregation’s nominations. Pray that they will finish well.
2. Pray that God would, even now, be at work in the hearts of the congregation members preparing us to release Gary and Kathy to new work and to accept our new Senior Pastor to the work God has called him and his family.

Elder Reaffirmation:  Joe Gardner, Scott Landstra, and Steve Wheeler are requesting congregational input as they screen for another three-year term as an elder.  Please review the Biblical qualification (I Timothy 3:1-7; 1 Peter 5:1-3; Titus 1:5-9) with Joe, Scott, and Steve in mind.  If you have questions or concerns, please address them to Joe, Scott, or Steve directly as to avoid miscommunication or misunderstanding. If approved by the screening committee, members will vote to re-affirm Joe, Scott, and Steve at the next Congregational Meeting on April 28. A more detailed list of qualifications can be picked up at the welcome desk.
