ANNOUNCEMENTS
AUGUST 1, 2010
WELCOME! We extend a heartfelt welcome to all who join together
this morning in the praise and worship of our Lord. We hope you find
this service meaningful and the fellowship accepting. Please sign the
"RITUAL OF FRIENDSHIP" pad that the ushers will pass out. Please
join us today in Fellowship Hall for coffee following worship service.
“OWN OUR SANCTUARY FUND”: Current Update!
The Amazing Race: We continue to be blessed by your generous spirit.
It has been a long race, yet we keep moving forward. Each runner brings renewed hope and faithfully passes the baton on to the next runner. If this was a 30 mile race, we just passed mile marker 26. Now we need the crowd to cheer! Good race! Keep Going! You’re almost there!
Are you the next runner? Will you be the one on the team to run over the finish line?
We need you on our team to get us from mile marker 26
to the finish line at mile 30. We have only $3,900 left to raise to meet our
goal of $30,000 (the amount needed in 2010 for payments on the original Sanctuary mortgage). It has been a remarkable race but we still need your help. Please consider giving a donation to the Sanctuary Fund. See you
at the finish line!

classrooms, and changing bulletin boards. If you can help for any of
those days, that would be great. Thank you!

August 15th, for Grades PreK-2 and Grades 3-5. This does not
involve any preparation or teaching. High School students are

difficulty hearing during the service, we have a wireless receiver that
