Shirley Yao's birthday

9/18/2014
 Shirly's birthday is 9/19.  Everyone remembers it now.  小兰姐好上相,怎样摆都好看。
We are here to welcome our new handbell members Steven and Alice Yao and their daughter Bettina (hope I spelled it right).  They are from Taiwanese Congregation and currently reside in Livingston.  God's mercy that they are able to attend the practice after work with their 2-year-old.  May God gives them strength and confidence that serves the Lord through the handbell choir is beyond joy. 

We have learned our new song : Carol of the Bells.  It's fast, quick and rapid.  Are we ready?  "You can do it, Megan can help."

Kids-Handbell choir - the strongest supporters


English/Taiwanese Congregation Offering

We will share in worship two classics - Onward Christian Soldiers and The Church's One Foundation.

By way of background, The Church's One Foundation was written when there was much liberal teaching threatening the doctrine of the church. Pastor Samuel Stone then wrote this classic to reaffirm the universal church as stated in the Apostles creed.

Ephesians 5:23 reads Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of His body, the church.

For the younger generation not familiar with the words of this second classic. It can be found in our blue hymnal in the pews.  Turn to hymn 45.

2014 Retreat

 "Sing this joyful morning, Jesus Christ is risen, leave your heart in joyful celebration....." I can't stop humming this song all day. I had little faith of handling 3 handbell groups before leaving for retreat.  God mercy me and provided incredible help to the teams.  Trust in the Lord is what I have to learn.
                    
The soul of the retreat
