Brand New

I am the new year. I am an unspoiled page in your book of time.

I am your next chance at the art of living. I am your opportunity to

practice what you have learned about life during the last 12 months.

All you sought and didn’t find is hidden in me, waiting for you to

search it but with more determination. All the good you tried for and

didn’t achieve is mine to grant when you have fewer conflicting

desires.

All you dreamed but didn’t dare to do, all you hoped but did not will, all the faith you claimed but

did not have — these slumber lightly, waiting to be awakened by the touch of a strong purpose.

I am your opportunity to renew your allegiance to him who said, “See, I am making all things new”

(Revelation 21:5, NRSV). —Author unknown

Deacon Ordination January 9, 2011 - 6:30pm

Be sure to be present for one of the most important events in the life of our church.

The Deacon Ordination.

These men have been chosen by you to be leaders and willing to commit to active

spiritual and physical participation in the life and work of our Church.

They have met the spiritual qualifications as described in Acts 6: “have a definite

experience with Jesus Christ,” “be filled with the Holy Spirit,” “be full of wisdom”

(common sense), and “be full of faith” (a man of vision, who is progressive in thought

and action.)

Deacons being ordained: Mike Gillette, Roy Robertson, Michael White, and Jeff

Woodford.

Come and show your support for these deacons and new beginnings here at WLBC

for 2011!

Thank You Reception for our Interim Youth Minister Nathan Haefer..........

In order to express our thanksgiving for his service

above and beyond, a thank you reception will be held

following the morning worship service on Sunday,

January 9, 2011 in the fellowship hall.
