Our God is the God of excellence and glory. His heaven is beyond human depiction. Our role is to reflect heaven and Christ’s image on this earth. Toward that end, on our physical campus construction and remodeling are underway and it’s great to see it in action. There’s a great crew working this project and the headway they are making is solid. We appreciate those who helped move furniture Sunday. It pushed your lunch way back, but your service truly helped to fast track this work. Thank you. We thank the Lord that He’s put Forum in a position to be able to do this. We truly want to excel in every area of ministry to the glory of God.
Weekly room alert: CIA class will meet in room 207/209. 3-5 year olds will meet in room 104/106.
What a great day of worship we had this past Sunday! Since we live in a town with multiple colleges, we have the opportunity to see a lot of students enter into our ministry and ultimately move forward down the path that God has them on. Over the past years, we’ve been extremely blessed to have both Stephen Walton and Becca Habeggar as vital people within our ministry. Both have been part of our rotation of worship leaders. Both love the Lord wholeheartedly and with intensity. Both will be moving forward with “what’s next” in their lives. Becca led at south campus this past Sunday and closed out leading at Synergy in the youth ministry area last night. Stephen will be leading at south this Sunday. Stephen and his wife Alisa will be pursuing getting onto the mission field to serve in Ireland. Please join me in both thanking them and praying for them as they move forward with God’s plan for their lives.
And speaking of graduations, we’ll be honoring our 2010 high school graduates this year. This has been a phenomenal group of students. This year also marks Justin Keith’s (our senior high youth minister) five year anniversary at Forum so this is the first graduating class for him of students that started their high school careers with him as one of their primary people helping them to become disciples of Christ. As I said, this is a great class full of world changers. It will be exciting to see how God will use this group of young adults.
On Memorial weekend, we’ll have another family worship day where we would encourage you to worship as a family. Classes will occur during the second hour, but if you attend the second service, we’d encourage you to have your children with you. We are structuring periodic family worship days so you can be together in worship as families. We had great feedback from the families last fall connected to this, and we’re striving to enhance it this time.
This Sunday we continue in our “Profiles in Courage” series looking at the life of Daniel. If you want to read ahead in preparation – the whole book is 12 chapters and is filled with phenomenal imagery, prophecy, and courage. It’s a great read. One I highly recommend. Can’t wait to worship with you this Sunday. — Scott
