*We had a fabulous Sunday with the Genesis Class - 49 people in attendance. We missed alot of our regulars to the youth ski trip (we prayed for you!) and to those who missed due to a long weekend. See you next weekend!
Rick and Nan Richards are hosting a "SuperBowl" Genesis Party. Tentative details: 4 p.m SuperBowl Sunday - for shooting of skeet and a "Pig Pickin" to follow. All families are invited. Please bring a dish to share and a beverage (please, no alcohol). More details to follow.

Lesson
10/07/07
Julie began a new series today discussing, Just Walk Across the Room, by Bill Hybels. In a typical day, we take 10,000 steps. That computes to 115,000 miles in our lifetime! If we can manage that distance, certainly we can leave our “circle of comfort” and take a few steps across a room to speak with someone. It could possibly change their life. Life’s greatest moments occur when we perform simple acts toward someone. This is possible only when God prompts us in the most mysterious ways. Christ came to seek and save what is lost. PEOPLE are Jesus’ number one priority—the lonely, the sick, the down-hearted, the depressed, and the hopeless. The greatest gift you can ever give someone is to lead them to a relationship with Christ. Acts 1:8 tells us that we who follow Christ have a mission here on Earth to do just that. Think you lack the knowledge, the tenacity, time, looks, or talent to carry out this mission? Don’t be concerned with these because the Almighty God, Creator of the Universe, is on your side!
Julie will have a quick review of chapter 2 and discuss chapter 3 next week! Remember there are books and study guides in the classroom.
Have a great week and I hope to see you at the yard sale!
Love,
Beth
