Announcements—June 4, 2017

Haiti Missions Trip, June 10-18: By the grace of God, ten people from Glory of Christ will be traveling to Haiti from June 10-18 with Adventures in Missions to aid with their on-going efforts there. The team will be led by Pastor Kevin and Kim Handren, and the rest of the team will be made up of GCF youth. Please pray for the team as they finish final preparations, and be sure to note the trip dates so that you can pray while they're gone.

Honoring our Fathers, June 18: Plan to join us on June 18 as we honor our fathers with a brief devotional, a time of prayer, and our traditional offering of beef jerky! We rejoice in the fathers the Lord has given to us, and where they have failed us and hurt us, we look to our heavenly Father who is the only perfect Father we will ever have. We encourage you to pray in advance and find creative ways to honor your fathers on this special day.

Gospel of John Outreach Meeting, June 24: Please join us at the church office on June 24 from 9:00-11:00 a.m. as we prayerfully discuss the ways that the Lord would have us give out Gospels of John in our community. We will also consider taking up the challenge to mobilize other churches to distribute 10,000 Gospels of John per year. Light snacks and drinks will be provided. Contact Pastor Charlie for further information.

Baptism Service and Picnic Sunday, June 25: Everyone is invited to attend a church picnic and baptism service at the Mark and Jill Larson's home in Zimmerman. Bring meat to grill and a side dish to share. You may also want to bring a lawn chair. Boating and swimming (possibly water tubing) will also be available. Please come out and support this year's baptism candidates. We will provide directions to the Larson's home at church on Sunday, June 25.

Wednesday Morning Prayer Meeting: Anyone who would like to join in corporate prayer may do so. The prayer time is from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. at the church office.
Next Week’s Fighter Verse

"I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through 
him who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:11-13

To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord, by George Muller

By Anonymous
To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord By George Muller “It has pleased the Lord to teach me a truth, the benefit of which I have not lost for more than fourteen years. The point is this: I saw more clearly than ever that the first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day was to have my soul happy in the Lord. The first thing to be concerned about was not how much I might serve the Lord, or how I might glorify the Lord, but how I might get my soul into a happy state, and how my inner man might be nourished. “I saw that the most important thing I had to do was to give myself to the reading of the Word of God—not prayer, but the Word of God. And here again, not the simple reading of the Word of God so that it only passes through my mind just as water runs through a pipe, but considering what I read, pondering over it, and applying it to my heart. To meditate on it, that thus my heart might be comforted, encouraged, warned, reproved, instructed. And that thus,...

Reflective Glory: How the Moon Displays the Mercy of God

By
Our sun is a fitting metaphor for the glory of God. In the context of our solar system, it is massive, bright, beautiful, powerful, self-sufficient, heat-producing, life-giving, and dangerous. It is, by far, the dominant feature of our solar system and without it the system would fling apart and all living things therein would die.  On the other hand, our moon is a fitting metaphor for human beings, especially for those who believe in Jesus Christ. First, compared to the sun, the moon is tiny and dim. The sun is 400 times larger than the moon, its mass is 27 million times greater than the mass of the moon, and from our perspective its light shines 450,000 times brighter than that of the moon. The sun is so much greater than the moon that it’s difficult to quantify and express the difference. Likewise, the Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, is so much great than each and all of us that it’s impossible to quantify or express the difference. Indeed, the Lord is very great and greatly...
