I am blessed to serve what Lyle Schaller calls a "seven-day-a-week church." There is rarely an evening and NO day when the church doesn't have some form of ministry going on. This week the church bustled with its normal outreach activities--the Agape Center for youth, the Christian FLOW Center for senior citizens. Today our Preschool Gym will be in operation and the Agape Center will open for middle schoolers. Tomorrow night our Agape Kids (serving elementary age kids) will fill our gym. Saturday our Tsaile VBS Team has a benefit auction at 4:00 pm to help raise monies to operate a Bible school for the Navajos. Sunday morning will be the normal church stuff--normal? Sunday afternoon we will celebrate the life of one of our oldest members, Sam Bender, a World War II hero, who went home to be with the Lord Tuesday. Tuesday night we even had a wedding--at Worship Band rehearsal as Carl Scillia, our drummer was married to Carol Hunt.
The BIG EVENT for us was the celebration of the 5th birthday of our Christian FLOW Center, a monthly ministry to the senior citizens of the Hempfield area that regularly attracts 125-35 people. Pastor Barry Sellers, my Associate heads this up. Congratulations!
And don't forget to support the TSAILE VBS AUCTION. Some really neat things provided by our church members and Lancaster County businesses.
