Subject: Ownbey Class - President's MESSAGE Date: Thursday , 22 Apr 2010 10:18:24 EDT From: Willard To: Ownbey Class Hi folks Thanks to Ace Walker for the lesson last week. Obviously he did a lot of preparation and covered several complicated issues (Paul, justification, faith, grace, works,etc) well in a short amount of time. Then again all of our teachers do thorough jobs. The new Lesson Schedule is out and copies may be found in our classroom or on the web site and blog. The lesson this week is CARING FOR GOD'S CREATION, led by Reatha Andrew. Earth Day is today, Thursday April 22. Next week Yours Truly will lead us in GOD AND GOLF. There are several meetings scheduled to discuss the more than half a million dollar renovation of our wonderful Sanctuary. One was 6:30 p.m. Wednesday 4/21/ (after Hot Wednesday meal). Others will be around 12 noon on Sunday 4/25 and 7:00 p.m. Tuesday 4/27 - all in the Sanctuary. Please keep Reatha informed of any Health and Happiness news. Let Tom Stinson know of Helping Hands needs. Thanks to Harriette Thompson, Lou Bledsoe, and Bob Lumadue for their help over the years leading our music and singing. Let them know if you have favorites you would like for us to use. Lastly, please let us know if you have comments or suggestions for what should be included in my MESSAGES, the Web Site, or the BLOG; we will try to accommodate you as we work to communicate effectively to the class.
