Most Pleasant
Morning Called and
Beloved of the Lord!
This morning we complete our mini
- series on the components of our
Mission Statement with a
discussion of the Holy Spirit and
what it means for us to be a Spiritled family. This is serious stuff! If
we claim to represent God to the
world, then we best do it on His
terms and by His divine guidance.
We return to the Prophets next
week…I am very excited about the
Upward Soccer Ministry! We need
you all to get involved in some
capacity: coaching, refereeing,
concessions, grounds,
administration, prayer and deco
leaders, logistical support, and

Saturday! What a great opportunity

auditorium we will once again offer
a Christian Music Concert featuring
the Worship Project Band. It is a
wonderful hour of praise and
worship, and we hope you will join
us. It is designed and slotted to
allow you to attend your Life Group
and then join the "Happy Throng"
for a time of contemporary praise
music. We hope to be able to offer
this worship venue the last Sunday
of every month, especially if you
like it and support it. It is different
than our Sunday morning
Assembly worship, and that is by
design. This is a separate and
distinct event conducted on a
periodic basis. Come and enjoy the
alternative form...Remember, I
have a new email address:

SERVING TOGETHER BY...
1st Assembly (8:15 am)
Assignments
So glad you are here today in
fellowship with the saints. Hey,
I got a personal question to
ask: “Do you know someone
who is separated or recently
divorced or are you separated
or recently divorced?” If you
answered, “yes,” please read
the rest of this article carefully.
I know the word D-I-V-O-R-C-E
can sometimes carry a stigma,
especially within the
Household of Believers, but
here at The GracePlace we
want you and your friends to
know that we are more
interested in H-E-A-L-I-N-G
than stigma. We know that
unless a person has been
there, it’s hard to understand
the hurt that comes from
separation and divorce. That’s
why many of your friends,
family, and fellow believers
don’t fully understand what
you’re going through and don’t
know how best to help you.
That’s why we are offering a
DIVORCE CARE support
group led by people who have
been through divorce and
successfully rebuilt their lives.
DIVORCE CARE features
biblical teaching for recovery,
and we welcome you and/or
your friends to join us in this
healing journey. The facilitators
for DIVORCE CARE are
Walter & Shirley Lancaster
and Larry & Pauline Dagen.
The group begins on
Wednesday, February 6, and
runs for 13 weeks. The times
are 7:00 - 9:00 pm. Please
RSVP with the church office at
972-298-4656 so that we have
workbooks available and child
care lined up. There is a $10
fee per person to cover the
cost of the workbook.
Hugs to All,
- Jeff
