January 29, 2012 Bulletin

POTLUCK AND CONGREGATION MEETING: will be held TODAY Sunday January 29, after late service.  We will have a pot-luck lunch together.  For the Potluck please bring a side dish, salad or dessert for 8-12 people.  Hot dogs will be provided.

SPRING CLEANING
: Women’s Ministry is planning a “Spring Cleaning” of the church on Saturday, February 11, at 9:30 am.  We would appreciate your help in making “Our Church-God’s House” fresh and clean, a place to be proud of.  If you can help, please come Feb. 11 with your cleaning equipment.  Any questions, call Debbie Wolter at 243-4187.

IT’S TIME TO START THINKING ABOUT SUMMER CAMP!  On February 1st, Camp Lakeview will begin registering campers (grades K-12) for its 2012 summer season.  Don’t let your children miss the adventure, joy, and wonder that a week at a Christian camp can bring.  To get more information, pick up a summer brochure on the bulletin board in the Welcome Center, or visit the camp’s website at www.camplakeview.com, or call the camp office at 812-342-4815.  Registrations must be postmarked on or after February 1st.  No phone reservations will be accepted until two weeks after registration opens, so the best way to register is to get the forms ready and mail it on February 1st.  See you at camp!

THE “TOUCH LINE” --  502-775-9183:  is Our Savior’s Witness Connection line.  Anytime you talk to someone who’s not a member of a church about your faith, that’s a “touch!”  Who knows how God will use that seed of faith He has planted through you.   We ask you to share your witnessing experience on the “Touch Line” and watch the “Touch” counter in the Welcome Center continue to climb. “All for Jesus” – Pastor Fausel     

GOLDEN OLDIES:  Our next meeting will be at noon on Monday, February 20th, at church.  As that is President’s Day, it is only fitting that we welcome our most distinguished guests, President Lincoln and his wife, Mary Todd.  Lunch will be a potluck, with the meat provided.  Please sign up on the poster in the Fellowship Hall to bring salad, potatoes/rice, vegetables or dessert for eight to ten people.  If you are unable to sign up on the poster, please call Don in the church office at 426-1130 and he will be glad to add your name and type of food you are bringing to the list.  President Lincoln has the reputation of being an outstanding speaker, so come early, bring a friend and enjoy another great program, good food and Christian fellowship.  Questions may be directed to Bill Haller at 426-7755.

In March, Golden Oldies will feature a guest speaker from the Louisville Water Company celebrating their 150th anniversary.
