Young People: Beginners (Ages 0-4).....Sister Wendy Rollocks Kindergarten (Pre-School ages)...sister Saundra Brewer Primary (Grade School ages sister Brenda Holcey Youth (High School ages)...sister Violet Larry In the Sanctuary: Meditational Selections Season of Prayer Musician Congregation Lesson Study #11 Congregation Topic: Last Day Events Memory Text: And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted (Matthew 23:12, NKJV). Key Thought: This week we looked at what is recorded in Matthew 23, with Jesus final appeal to some of the Jewish leaders to repent and accept Him, their only hope of salvation. Next, in Matthew 24, Jesus responded to questions about what events will unfold prior to His second coming. Here Jesus presents a rather solemn picture, linking the destruction of Jerusalem with what will precede His return. And yet, no matter how hard things become, i.e. war, famine, betrayal, we are left with the promise of the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory (Matt. 24:30, NKJV). In other words, despite the toils and sorrow, we do have every reason to rejoice. **** Purpose: To make Disciples Core Values Prayer, Preparing People, and Praise Mission Statement: To welcome with Love and minister to our families, our church, and our community.

Announcements - Page Three Finance Information (Tithes, Combined Budget & Expenses) Tithes - primarily support the preaching, pastoral, evangelistic work of ministers and Bible teachers. In addition, because Adventist schools are an ongoing ministry to students, tithe funds are used to subsidize selected administrative salaries and a percentage of salaries for teachers. Tithe provides for the support of local, union, division and General Conference services. Tithe is not used to purchase property, build churches or fund the general operations of churches or schools. Tithes are sent directly to the Oregon Conference to support the aforementioned efforts. Offerings-Combined Budget - Contributions to Combined Budget remain at Sharon Church to help pay for church expenses and ensures that the church is able to meet its financial obligations and support our local ministries. It costs about $460 a day to pay for local church expenses. These include payments to subsidize Portland Adventist Elementary and Portland Adventist Academy schools (approximately $1900 mo); church ministries, utilities e.g. water, gas, electricity, equipment rental, personnel, landscaping and facility upkeep and maintenance. Updated Financial Information Through April 30, 2016 Year to Date Monthly Average Conference Funds $92, $23, Local Combined Church Budget $61, $15, Expenses $58, $14, Contributions exceed expenses by $2,682 ytd / $670 mo. avg.
