GOOD NEWS
Super Sunday is just two weeks away! We are looking forward to having Bro. Wayne Miller preach for us during Super Sunday on February 4. Bro. Miller is an outstanding gospel preach-er. He is originally from Trenton, Georgia. He graduated from the East Tennessee School of Preaching (SEIBS) in 1981. He has worked with the Maple Hill Church of Christ in Lebanon and
West End Church of Christ in Knoxville. He is currently the outreach minister and interim preacher at the Mount Juliet Church of Christ. Wayne and his wife Debbie have been married for 38 years. They have three children: Chris, Joshua, and Mandi. Bro. Miller will teach a combined adult Bible class at 9 a.m. and preach during the worship hour at 10 a.m. We will enjoy a catered lunch in our Fellowship Center at 11 a.m. Grade-A will be ca-tering the meal. We will have a short devotional following the meal in lieu of our regular Sunday evening worship service. I hope you will invite your friends and family to be with us on this special day!
TWO UPCOMING EVENTS We are excited to announce the dates for two upcoming events: February 11 - Teens 4 Christ @ Jefferson Avenue April 7 - Ladies Day @ Jefferson Avenue
PRAY FOR MARSHALL COUNTY, KENTUCKY
As I was writing this article, news broke that another school shooting has taken place at Marshall County High School in Benton, Kentucky. The governor of Kentucky has reported at a press conference this afternoon that two students were killed and twelve other people were wounded. This is a tremendous tragedy. I do not understand these senseless acts of violence. We have two local connections with this school. One of our mem-bers, Brad Fortner, and Cameron Miller, our summer intern, both graduated from Marshall County High School. Let’s all join in prayer for these students and their families.
