Sermon Highlight and This Week's Schedule
Sunday, September 16, 2018 (17th Sunday after Pentecost)
The Parable Of…
Amos 8:1-12, Luke 10:25-37
For the next two Sunday’s Rev. Dr. Richard Smith will be here for the worship services.
The sermon this Sunday deals with the parable of the Good Samaritan, and will look at the subject of Jesus parables. A good question to consider as we read any of the parables is to ask: who is the subject of this parable? Not “what” but “who.” If the parable is aimed at teaching someone a lesson about God, who is the one needing to be taught?
Rev. Dr. Richard Smith

Worship Service at 10:30 a.m.
Followed by Fellowship and Refreshments
Serving the church this Sunday:
Pastor Rev. Dr. Richard Smith

Prayers
Please keep our church in your prayers. Session is hoping to have an interim here soon. Then they will work on putting together a Pastor Nominating Committee. We are fortunate to have people available for pulpit supply and the Worship and Music Committee to keep us running smoothly.
As we pray for our church we also pray for our members each week. This week we are praying for John and Sandi Westhafer and family. They ask for prayers for the good health of their daughters-in-law, Gia and Jodi.
The church we are praying for this week is the Trinity Presbyterian Church in Rushville, Indiana. They have recently acquired a new pastor and they ask for prayers that things move along nicely and they continue to receive new members to their congregation. They also ask for prayers for their finances to improve so they may maintain the upkeep of the church.
Sunday Conversations: Class will meet at 9:15 a.m. Sunday morning. Look for topic and information on this week’s class coming to you via email later today or tomorrow.
Bible Study: Bible Study class, led by Darleen fox, will continue to focus on the book of Luke. See you at 9:15 a.m. on Sunday morning in the bridal room.
