Kidz Club will meet this evening at 5:30.
Today’s Psalm praises and thanks God and asks for help in times of trouble: the stuff prayer is made of! Join us on Wednesday nights for our own time of prayer to do those very things.
On January 17, 1604 King James of England called a conference of churchmen and theologians at Hampton Court. During the conference a motion carried “…that a translation be made of the whole Bible…”. That eventually led to what we now call the King James Version.

Worship Hint for Families
Happy New Year!
We’ve seen the ‘new thing’ God will do when he re-makes the heavens and the earth. We’ve seen the ‘new thing’ when, by Christ’s resurrection, we are made to “walk in newness of life.”
Now note the command to “put on the new self” – an act for which we are responsible. God makes the new life. God makes it available. God makes us able to do it. But God requires us to exert the effort to ‘put on.’
Like with those frustrating resolutions, some act of will is necessary. But unlike the usual resolution, this act is sanctioned and supported by God. It is his command. This new year follow the advice of the old gospel song and “Trust and Obey.”
Ø This coming Friday – Sunday is our annual Castle Retreat. Sign up to attend and join us for refreshing fellowship and feasting on the Word of God.
Ø Please be in prayer for our church leaders as they prepare for our annual meeting and as they plan our course for the coming year.
Ø The Annual Meeting will be held at 7:00 on Friday night, February 2. There will be a pot-luck dinner at 6:00.
