Next Sunday, September 17th, is our annual “Back to Church Sunday”. Summer is winding down, the kids are heading back to school and we are kicking off our Fall season with a special service and time of fellowship.
After a time away, such as many of us have had this summer, it is good to come back together and remember who we are and what we believe.
We are united under the Gospel of Jesus Christ as one body. We have common beliefs, purposes and goals, and spending time together strengthens our bonds, drawing us closer together and helping each of us to sharpen our faith “…as iron sharpens iron.” (Proverbs 27:17 NIV)
On behalf of the entire leadership team here at First Christian Church, I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that we will be praying for you as another school year begins.
What a wonderful opportunity and privilege you have in teaching students! I often look back with great appreciation to those who have taught me, whether it was in the early Elementary School years or in my College level courses.
I wanted to take this opportunity to send you a note to thank you so much for volunteering your time to teach in the (NAME OF CLASS OR MINISTRY).
While it seems like we tend to ask for volunteers quite a bit here at the church, rest assured, we are always thrilled when someone steps up to “answer the call” and get involved in a way perhaps they never have before! It's exciting to see people begin to grow in their faith as they reach out to be a blessing to others!
I wanted to take this opportunity to send a note to let you know that you will be in our thoughts and prayers as you return to college for another year.
Time passes so quickly as I'm sure you find it hard to believe you are entering another year already!
As you prepare for your first year of college, I wanted to take a few moments to share some words of encouragement with you and to let you know we will be praying for you as you go throughout the year.
First of all, dedicate yourself to learning! You might think that is obvious, but I have watched over the years as students have made their way to college looking for the “college experience” which to them seemed to include everything BUT learning!
