Tim & Colleen Stevenson Sunday, January 15, we will have the privilege of hosting our Living Link Mission Partners from Uganda, Tim and Colleen Stevenson. They will be our guest speakers in our morning worship service, and we will

have the opportunity to interact with them over lunch at the Norsemen Inn dining room. For any interested in learning more about Church of God ministries in E. Central Africa [church planting, ministerial training, youth and women’s ministries, child sponsorship, Tumani Aids Prevention Program, etc] as well as future mission trips to that area, this would be a great opportunity for learning. It will be an order from the menu, pay for your own meal. Please notify the church office by Jan. 12 to reserve a place at the luncheon.

A Word for 2017 Each year we try to select a word God would have us consider for the year. In 2017 we will be exploring the word ‘LISTEN.’ This will be done in a variety of ways: Our biblical teaching themes Learning the art of spiritual listening A listening retreat Special worship times We will consider how God gets our attention, how we know God is speaking and not just our ideas, active listening, etc...
