Upcoming Events on Saturday Nights

snw — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 17:12:27 +0000

Hello Everyone,

Here’s a reminder of what’s upcoming this fall on Saturday nights after the worship service!

September 19th -

Burger BBQ.
$3.00 for a burger, chips, drink.
Tickets on sale September 12th.

October 10th -

Pizza night.
Details forthcoming.

October 17th -

Open brainstorming meeting.
Anyone who wants to attend can come and help us think and come up with ideas on what to do before or after the worship service.
The two questions we want to answer are: 1) What can we do to help us grow in Christlikeness? 2) What can we do to help us develop “strong stickiness”?
Your input is definitely important here!

October 24th -

Extended Worship Night.
After the worship service, we’ll move over to the Holy Grounds Cafe and have a time of extended worship through song.
Mike de Neve will lead this time.

Pastor Dennis, Kirk and I hope to see you each week this fall as we grow in Christlikeness!

Church Time changes this Weekend!

In Honor of William Wilberforce’s 250th Birthday

snw — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 21:23:11 +0000

Here are some great quotes by or about William Wilberforce (WW).

“Joy is enjoined on us as our bounden duty and commended to us as acceptable worship.” WW

Said about WW: “His presence was as fatal to dullness as to immorality.”

A Duke to Wilberforce: “You have made me so entirely forget you are a great man by seeming to forget it yourself.”

Said about WW: “William insisted on eating as many meals as possible with the children, and he joined in their games.”

Said about WW: “He was a most cheerful Christian. His harp appeared to be always in tune.”

Important News about Saturday Nights @ Emmanuel Faith

Service time change!

Beginning September 5, 2009, our Saturday night worship service will start at 5:30 p.m.

Why are we doing this?

Helps our families with younger children.
Gives us more fellowship time after the service.
Gives us more opportunities for things like extended prayer and worship after the service.
All of these things will help move us forward in knowing Jesus and being like Him.

Next after church dinner!

A sub sandwich
Chips
A drink
Ice cream.

You can purchase your tickets at the café beginning August 15^th.
