FROM THE CUFF
This past Sunday, Mother’s Day was a wonderful day at Lithia Springs and it was a joy to have our mothers with their children present. Our lessons Sunday morning focused on the home and family. Bro. Gary Culbreath did an outstanding job on his lesson, “Saving Our Children”. You can see this by going to our website, lithiaspringschurchofchrist.com and click on streaming.
THIS COMING SUNDAY Bro. Gary will be teaching the auditorium class and preaching at the am service. Our young men will be conducting the evening service. Janet and I will be in Warren County where I will be preaching in a meeting.
DOOR KNOCKING THIS SATURDAY AT 10. The youth will be meeting at 10 am Saturday to door knock inviting the community to our services, especially on Sunday evening for the young men’s service. All our welcome to come and help. All of our young people are expected.
THIS MONTH BRO. JERRY MARKS IS OVERSEEING THE COMMUNION IN OUR WORSHIP. We made a change in the time for the Lord’s Supper. Thanks to the men who serve. You have done well in this change.
A busy summer is ahead for the Lithia Springs congregation beginning with our gospel meeting with Bro. Phillip Brannon on June 3rd. There will be a pot luck on Sunday the 3rd and a meal each evening before the services. There is a signup sheet in the Information Center to help plan the meals.
On June 13th we will have our kick off for the Summer Series with congregational singing and a cook out. We did not get to have the cook out last year due our building construction.
July 15-18 is our VBS. We will begin on Sunday evening the 15th with a devotional then pre-registration for the children, a balloon lift off followed by homemade Ice Cream.
August 11th is Ladies Day with Sis. Becky Blackmon. She will also be speaking to the ladies on Sunday morning in the auditorium.
Mark all these dates on your calendar.
THANKS TO OUR USHERS Mike Mattingly, Billy Robinson and Artis Ray. Thanks fellows you do a great job.
GROWTH CONTINUES AT LITHIA SPRINGS as can be seen by the recent figures. At the end of 2011 we had averaged 100 in Bible School. The last seven weeks of this year we have averaged 114. At the end of 2011 we had averaged 137 in worship. The last seven weeks of 2012 we have averaged 155. This only happens when members work as you have been doing. God bless you all.
