| SPECIAL
NEWS ... SUNDAY
NIGHT SURVEY
On
August 12, we will have our
final Kairos service of the summer. Thanks to Pastor Randy for planning
and putting together these special services and times of fellowship.
On
Wednesday, August 8 our CLT will discuss our Sunday night services. We
will review the Kairos services and consider other options for our
Sunday night format. That is where we need your input.
What
would you like to see happen on Sunday nights at Old Hickory? Below are
some of the possibilities that will be discussed by the CLT.
A.
Continue
having one celebration service per month, as we have done for the
summer.
B.
Continue having one celebration service per month AND
one mission service per month in the FLC. (Casual atmosphere with light
refreshments during the mission meeting.)
C.
Continue having one celebration service per month AND
one mission service per month AND
have one Sunday night per month designated as a time for Sunday School
classes to have fellowships, either at the church or in someone’s
home.
D.
**On the Sunday nights when no service would take place at the church
building, everyone would be encouraged to spend time with family and to
invite unsaved friends into their homes for fellowship.
E.
Have a mission service in the FLC once per month, and a
discipleship class taught by Pastor Bledsoe on the remaining Sunday
nights. This would be strictly teaching and dialogue, with no singing or
special music. The class would take place in either the FLC or in the
sanctuary.
Please
let us know your opinion. You may have other suggestions you would like
to share. Feel free to talk with any CLT member, e-mail the church
office, talk with Pastor John or Pastor Randy, or write out your opinion
and/or suggestions and place them in Ann Robbins’ mail box in the
office wing of the FLC. You do not have to sign your name to these if
you would rather not.
What
is important is that we hear from you. Your input is important to us and
would be greatly appreciated.
-- Pastor John
