Love Means Not Having Halitosis....

After Bro. Jerry's sermon we all know a lot more about bad breath and what causes it. So...how's your breath? More importantly we got a big reminder about the power of our words. This study has been so good...we have 3 more weeks to learn all we can about loving each other.

The Ladies Care Group kick-off was a blast...sorry I forgot to take pictures. I even had my camera sitting out!!! Hope the five ladies that lasted until the end of Liverpool get a good night's rest tonight!

40 Days of Love...

Sunday morning was a great beginning to the new series our church is going through. In the video on Sunday, Rick Warren asked us to make a committment to attend Sunday School & Church every week for the next 5 weeks so that we don't miss a single lesson on truly learning how to love others. This is the mission of our class so let's all make it a priority!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

*Tshirts are here! If you have yours already - wear them Friday night! If you missed out on ordering and would like a shirt we have 2 extras: 1 L and 1 XL. They are $10 each.

*Based on the survey's we will not have breakfast every week in class but will have it on the first Sunday of the month. The list is posted on the side in case you forget when you signed up!

*SEPTEMBER 18: Class Social: Geocaching Scavenger Hunt hosted by the Hearn's. Meet at the church at 6:30 and bring your supper. We'll eat while Matt & Kasey explain the rules then the fun will begin! If you have any small trinkets around the house bring them to swap out on the hunt. (very small - they need to fit in a film canister). Childcare is provided from 6:30-9:30. Contact Janyth at the church to sign up.

*SEPTEMBER 20: Men who are interested in being a part of a smaller group in order to build deeper relationships and grow spiritually will meet Sunday night @ 7:00 at the St. Clair's home to watch the Cowboy game.

*SEPTEMBER 27: Ladies small group night - more details to come!

How do you love your neighbor?

Good question! In Bro. Jerry's sermon this morning he continued his series on the 4 neighbors who lowered the paralytic man thru the roof so he could be healed by Jesus.
He talked about real love and mentioned 4 very practical things to consider:

1. Love is a choice not a feeling.
2. Love is an action.
3. Love is a skill that must be developed.
4. Love is a habit.

Sounds like a great way to love your neighbor!
Hope everyone has a great Labor Day! See you next week for the big 40 Days of Love kick-off!!
