1 Word on the Street Tulip Street Christian Church December 2017 Staff Lead Pastor Jim Valentine Associate/Student Pastor Ken Yanish Worship Pastor Tyson Knight Support Staff Jaime Grissom Shannon Lagle Misty Swayer Elders Dan Gillespie Jeff Miller Barry Terry TSCC Missionaries Matt & Brittaney Cazee From my family to yours, Merry Christmas! Your brother in Christ, Dear brothers and sisters at TSCC - Another year comes to a close, and we have so much to be thankful for! Please join me this Christmas season as we celebrate Advent once again throughout the month of December. Remember that every breath you take is a gift from God, so open each one joyfully, full of anticipation for what He would like to do with it; remember the lyrics, "Its Your breath, in our lungs, so we pour out our praise!" Make every effort to do just that - use it all to glorify Him! We will be having our annual meeting early in January to talk about some strategies for the coming year in helping us be more connected to Christ both individually and collectively as families and as a church. But until then, love like Jesus all those around you. The world expects you, as a Christian, to talk about Jesus this time of year. Walk through that door. And love like Jesus all those around you (did I already say that? It seems like a recurring theme in the Bible, so it seems like it should be how we live...). Jim
