Happy Birthday to Nancy Reafler May 27th and Happy Anniversary to Morgan & Jessica McDonald May 24th.
Paul Scott Abbott graciously led us in worship today with a great message about "War and Peace". If you're interested, check out our Youtube channel. If you don't want the entire service, skip to about the 30 minute mark for the sermon only. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyX0YGHxZEg&t=1842s
Today is a special Sunday.....
We are celebrating Pentecost. Jesus told his disciples that he would not leave them comfortless--that he would send another comforter to be with them. When the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples, they became bold and proclaimed the Gospel. The Bible says that 3,000 people were added to the church that day. The same Holy Spirit is with us today and will provide for us. Thanks be to God!
This is also the day before Memorial Day. We take time to remember the men and women who have given their lives for this country. We thank them for their service.
June 19: JPC goes to Gwinnett Stripers game. See the May 10th blog for details or see info on the Narthex table. Money for tickets is due June 7th. Tickets will be distributed June 14th.
We would like to keep our prayer list updated and current. The Session approved a change to the way it's handled. A name or situation will remain on the prayer list for 4 weeks. After that time frame it will be removed unless there is a continued need. Please share that information with us and we will gladly leave the person or situation on the list. To be respectful of privacy, we will not publish "answers to prayer" unless specifically requested to do so.
What's next for JPC? That's a very important question, information and updates will be shared as we make progress. In the meantime, please continue to pray for the Session and each other.
May God bless you today and always. From your friends at JPC.
