MORNING WORSHIP—10 AM                                     EVENING WORSHIP--7 PM

Scripture: John 20:24-31                                          Scripture: Nehemiah 13:15-22
Message: Welcome Back, Thomas                              Message: Set Apart for God

 

We welcome all to worship on this day that the Lord has made! We are especially thankful today for God’s gift of mothers. We praise Him for families! Please stay for fellowship and refreshments following the morning service.

Roadside Chapel Offering: A new south chapel for I-90 has been built and will be open for use by Memorial Day. Because of the cost incurred in building the new chapel, today’s CRC offering will be for the chapel maintenance fund.

Next Sunday join in worship at Grace in the morning and at the Harrison north church in the evening. A NOON BBQ will be held in the Fellowship Hall to honor our 2012 Grace & CRC graduates--kindergarten, 8th Grade, High School, College and Tech. Please add your grad’s name to the list so they can be recognized; also check the list for food donations needed for lunch. Thanks!

Next Sunday evening we join the Harrison churches in worship. Kevin Rogers, the son of Mae and Bud Niewenhuis, was killed in a bicycle-pickup accident August 18, 2010. Pastor Kevin Schneider from Good News Reformed Church in Sioux Falls is coming to First Reformed in Harrison to tell how God is using Kevin's death to touch lives for His kingdom. The Singspiration praise group from Stickney, "As Is," will also be leading a time of praise. Be in Harrison (North Church) May 20 at 7:00 p.m. for a service of praise and worship followed by a time of fellowship.

The Gideons will present their mission as part of our worship next Sunday morning, May 20. They appreciate any financial gifts you choose to give at the door as you exit the service.
