ANNOUNCEMENTS

The Flowers today are given in loving memory of Georgia Eloise Emerson by her family, Gary and Mary Allyson Emerson and children. Parents and grandparents of our little ones, please note: Our young disciples who leave for Children’s Church after the Children’s Message will no longer return to the Sanctuary after the sermon. While we have loved seeing them come back in, the logistics have been a challenge. After the 9:00 worship service, preschool teachers will escort preschoolers to their Sunday school class in the preschool pod. Parents of first graders are asked to pick their child up after worship and walk upstairs to the first grade class with their child. Church Directory: It’s time for us to update our photo directory. You’re invited to be a part of it. As you look around today, you’ll see we have new families. We’re growing, and we’d like to capture our growth. We will be photographing all families between 2 and 9 p.m. February 25-28 and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, February 29. Be sure to sign up for a slot; our directory won’t be complete without you. Today, sign up for a session by stopping by the directory table. During the week, set an appointment by calling Kim Brauss in the church office or register online at www.florencefirst.org or through Realm anytime. Men’s Breakfast Canceled: The Tuesday Men’s breakfast will not meet January 21. The breakfast will resume January 28. Wednesday Night Programs: Please join us for Family Night Dinners, adult electives, and children and youth programs. Dinner starts at 5:45 p.m. and programs begin at 6:30 p.m. The planned menu for Wednesday is pancakes, bacon and fruit. Starting January 22, Dr. Darryl Evans will lead a series on Revelation. Rev. Chris Handley also will start a six-week study designed to help you know your own story as it intersects God’s story. Our understanding of how God has knit us together is imperative, not only for our own maturity in Christ, but also for sake of the greater Church’s maturity. Embracing God’s Word: The non-denominational Bible study is held on Sunday nights from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the church. This spring EGW is studying 1 Samuel, the follow-up to Joshua/Judges. Please join us for this 10-week study. Contact Janet Brand for more information, janet81661@aol.com.
