THIS MORNING WE WILL COMMISSION A NEW ELDER. Last Sunday, church members voted to confirm Jeremy Duvendeck as an elder. Concerning new elders, our church constitution says, "Once confirmed, each new elder should be set apart for this ministry by means of public prayer and the laying-on of hands." This step of commissioning will be accomplished during our worship service today.  

THE PREACHING TODAY is the second of two messages about "Forgiveness." The title for today's sermon is "The Apostles Teach About Forgiveness." The Apsotle Paul writes, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." (Romans 12:21)

NEAR THE END OF OUR WORSHIP SERVICE, after we have extended a heart of forgiveness toward others, the Lord's Supper will be served.  

THE STEADFAST SENIORS will meet for lunch and Christian fellowship this Friday, February 7. 12:30 pm.  

THE WEDDING OF SILAS NIEMI AND HOPE BAISCH will be this Saturday, February 8, at 2:00 pm. Everyone is invited to join us for this beautiful time of worship, preaching, prayer and wedding vows. An informal reception will follow the service. Please note that the location will be the building of Bethany Bible Church, 810 East Huron River Drive, Belleville, Mich.
