NEWS/PRAYER

The Men's Fellowship
will begin meeting again on SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 17 at 8:00 A.M. in the CHURCH FELLOWSHIP HALL.  All men from seniors in high school on up are invited to join us.  A continental breakfast (muffin, juice and coffee) is provided for just $2.00.  We will be continuing our video series The Measure of a Man, with Dr. Gene Getz.  Even if you haven't attended before, now is a great time to jump in.  Getting to know some of your brothers in Christ is a great way to begin the new year.  Join us, guys, and bring
someone with you.  

Allie will be on vacation...
until January 10.  Please hold your phone calls for her.  She and Jeremy will be driving back from her parents' home in the state of Washington in the next few days.  Pray for their safe travel!

Attention Super Seniors
Just a reminder to all of the "students" who will be in Casey Groeneveld's Bible class.  Our first class will be on MONDAY, JANUARY 12 at 1:00 at the home of Casey & Phyllis.  We are looking forward very much to this class, learning from Prof. Casey.  We will meet the second Monday of each month.  If you are interested in attending and haven't signed up for the class, call Casey & Phyllis at 780-3635. 

Youth For Hire
A reminder to you...our students are willing to work for their cost of youth events and programs.  No job is too little or big for the teens.  If you or anyone you know has some work or a project to get done, please consider the teens at Berean to help.  All funds earned go into an account for the students for a future event.  Contact Pastor Rick (780-4765 or 557-4707).

Service Cancellations:  If you suspect that our worship service or week night programs may be cancelled due to poor weather conditions, go to WoodTV 8 or WzzmTV 13 for a list of closings on the bottom of your TV screen.  Or, you may go to their websites (www.woodtv.com or www.wzzm13.com), click on "cancellations" and view the list.

There will be no Sunday School
for children or adults until January 11.  Enjoy the time with your families.

Scrip
We earned $168.45 for the month of December in Scrip.  Thanks for buying your gift cards through the church!  There is always someone in the Fellowship Hall after the service to either sell you cards that we have on hand or to take your order, which will be available the next Sunday.

Wednesday All-Church Family Supper
Food is served from 5:30 until 6:15.  All those who attend Berean are invited to come and enjoy supper together.  The cost is $3/person or $7/family.  Reservations are not necessary.
Menu for 1/7: Hamburgers, Potato Salad, Ice Cream.

Parking Lot Assistance
Board members and other volunteers will once again assist in parking and returning cars to the front entrance during the winter months.  They will be available from 9:00 a.m. before and for 20 minutes after the morning service.  The assistants will work with the greeter and be wearing bright green vests.  Please remain at the door for the driver to return your key.

Ask and it shall be given to you;
Seek and you will find
Knock and the door will be opened
to you.

 

For everyone who Asks receives,

   and to him who Knocks the door
                 will be opened.
