READING CHALLENGE! READ 12 IN 2012 |
READING CHALLENGE!
READ 12 IN 2012
Be the first to take the challenge and read 12
books from our church library during 2012 and
win a $25 Gift Certificate to Applebees. The
first person to give the list to Lora Lowery of
the 12 books read from our church library, will
be the winner of the gift certificate. The next
4 runners-up will receive a DVD (title to be
announced later in the year). Ron & Sharon Baker
recommend, Not a Fan, by Kyle Idleman. A fan of
Jesus gets excited at Church, Sunday School, and
Bible Study, but during the rest of the week the
focus is on work, family and social activities.
Jesus told his disciples to "follow me". This
book clearly defines the differences between
being a fan or a follower and challenges the
reader to take an honest look at their personal
relationship with Jesus Christ. |

James 5:16 says, "The effectual
fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." It is our desire to use all
the means available to us to be a church that is praying for our people.
Therefore, we would like to start an E-MAIL PRAYER CHAIN along with the PHONE
PRAYER CHAIN. There is a SIGN UP SHEET IN THE LOBBY for anyone who would like to
be informed of a prayer request during the week, via e-mail and/or by phone.
If you only want to be on the e-mail prayer chain DO NOT give your phone number.
TODAY IS THE LAST DAY FOR SIGNING UP |

|
The
three minute rule is the "three minutes" at
the end of the Worship Service where you
find someone you don’t know and greet them
instead of gathering with those you do know.
As members of Oxbow Lake Baptist, these
"three minutes" also are to be used to greet
our Guests before we move on to fellowship
with our friends. |
|
Many times our "Guests" are attending church looking for
answers to problems or for Christian friends or for eternal direction.
Therefore, we must be sure not to miss the golden opportunity to share God’s
love and welcome them warmly. In welcoming our guests warmly, it will open the
door for the right to minister to them in God’s House. |
|
A $5.00 DONATION WILL BE MADE TO OUR CHURCH
|
