Pastor’s Report — August 31, 2005

Another month…

Another month has come and gone, but the departure of August is always an important one and this year, that hasn’t changed…

Just consider the significance of this change of month:

  • Summer is on it’s way out and cooler weather is on the way in.
  • School is starting for many and has already started for some.
  • My sermon series is taking a turn from the theological back to more motivational and practical matters.
  • It’s time to refresh our fellowship.

Summer is always a difficult time for us as a church, and I’m never sure why it is. It always seems that more people are missing from our church services than can be accounted for by vacations, but I’m not exactly sure what to think about all that.

At any rate, it’s time, now that Fall is coming, for us to renew and refresh our fellowship. Let me encourage you to make spending time in worship and fellowship with your NWBC family a high priority for yourself each week.

One way you can do that is by making a point to come to our service this week as we will be celebrating Communion and bringing our Firstfruits offering to God. Please join us this week, because as we learned last week, God wants to bring his people together in unity so that they can experience his presence! Click here for last week’s message

Katrina…

I also want to take a moment to acknowledge the great amount of devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina. (It’s so funny, because I have a friend named Katrina and she is one of the most soft-spoken people I’ve ever met!) Anyway, there are a lot of people without homes and many without hope. Let’s spend some time in prayer for them and thank God for the many blessings he has given us.
