Kroger Neighbor to Neighbor Program

Help our church earn a portion of Kroger’s annual $1 million donation to
nonprofits by linking your Kroger card to our Neighbor to Neighbor account.  Simply present our bar code (available in the church lobby) to the cashier the next time you use your Kroger card, and your purchases will automatically earn us a portion of the donation money until April 30, 2011.  Look inside this issue for additional ways to save on your grocery purchases!

Faith in Action Prayer Guidelines

8/8/10: Ask the Lord to bless our commitment to serve others in our community.

Dear friends, God is good.  So I beg you to offer your bodies to him as a living sacrifice, pure and
pleasing.  That’s the most sensible way to serve God. (Romans 12:1)

8/15/10: Pray that we would be equipped to use the gifts God has given us for
ministry and would be faithful stewards of the resources God has given us to bless others.

Each of you has been blessed with one of God’s many wonderful gifts to be used in the service of others.  So use your gift well. If you have the gift of speaking, preach God’s message.  If you have the gift of helping others, do it with the strength that God supplies.  Everything should be done in a way that will bring honor to God because of Jesus Christ, who is glorious and powerful forever. Amen. (1 Peter 4:10-11)
