Psalm 40:3 THE WEEK OF NOVEMBER 20, 2017 RICKY'S COMMUNICATION NOVEMBER BIRTHDAYS DECEMBER SCHEDULE NO SANCTUARY CHOIR REHEARSAL NOVEMBER 22 NO CHURCH ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL NOVEMBER 26 ANNOUNCEMENTS MUSIC FOR SUNDAY RICKY'SCOMMUNICATION VERY GRATEFUL As we all sit down with family or friends or both this week, we have opportunity to not only express our thankfulness, but we also have the privilege of reflecting a grateful spirit. We are to be reminded of the incredible blessings in our lives for which the Lord Himself is directly responsible. As most of you, I am humbled at how the Lord has touched my life through my family and through a host of relationships that serve to both encourage me and challenge me. Please know that as I gather with my family this week, that I will be thanking the Lord for all of you and for the gift He has given in allowing me to serve beside you. May you all experience the wonder of the Lord s presence and pleasure in your Thanksgiving gatherings. I look forward to seeing you Sunday morning, bellies full and hearts refreshed!
