WELCOME TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY DAY

Today is a very special day to us for two reasons. First, because Sunday is the day that
has been set aside for Christians throughout the world to gather together to worship God.
Because we seek to worship God as the early church did, you will notice that we sing without the
accompaniment of mechanical musical instruments (Ephesians 5:19; Colossians 3:16). You will
also notice that we observe the Lord’s Supper each first day of the week (Acts 20:7) which
consists of unleavened bread and fruit of the vine (Matthew 26:26-29). This memorial is
designed for those who have been baptized (immersed) for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38) for
the purpose of remembering the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians
11:23-32). There will also be an offering collected from our members (1 Corinthians 16:1-2).
As our guest, you are not expected to make a donation. Feel perfectly comfortable passing the
collection plate down the row. You will also hear the preaching of a Bible-centered message
(Acts 20:7) and men leading the congregation in prayer (1 Timothy 2:8). We hope you will find
our worship meaningful and refreshing as we strive to worship the Lord in spirit and in truth
(John 4:24).
Second, this is a special day because you are our honored guests. We are glad that you
have chosen to be with us today and we look forward to getting to know you better. We invite
you to make plans to stay with us for the luncheon which will immediately follow our morning
worship.
