Great Sunday

It is wonderful to be able to think on Monday morning - how good it was to be in the house of the Lord! Antioch has been blessed lately with great attendance, great services and to see God working and moving in lives. Yesterday was no exception. Good Sunday School attendance, a good word from the Lord in the preaching, a full nursery (12 children!) and a family coming forward to join the church. Praise the Lord!
Other highlights were a youth luncheon and fellowship which was well attended and some great ideas were put into place for the youth. Wonderful testimonies were given from a recent widow's conference and prayerful plans for a widows/grief ministry in our church, M&Ms had a great turnout of children last night and at choir practice, we were overflowing!
As we enjoy these blessings in our church, let's continue to be steadfast in prayer for our church and be alert for opportunities to welcome the new families and to show love to one another.
Some needs to be aware of this week are as follows:

Claudie B. is still very low, pain, seizures and she is not eating well.
Frances P. has some testing this week.
Caroline's mother is in the hospital in NC.
Carol A. is doing better and is recovering at Surrey Place.
The new family - Pat and Sandy R.'s daughter and soon to be born baby girl.

Please remember these and others on the back of the bulletin in your prayers.
