Celebration Preparation–Passage To Ponder:  “ O LORD, You have searched me and You know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; You perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; You are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue You know it completely, O LORD.” [Ps. 139:1–4— NIV84]

Celebration Invitation–Scripture Reading: Adapted from: Pss 139:6; 57:10–11; Ex 15:13 (NIV84); Hos. 11:4 (ESV)

“O LORD, You have searched me and You know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; You perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; You are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue You know it completely, O LORD.”.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

In Your unfailing love You will lead the people You have redeemed. In Your strength You will guide them to Your holy dwelling.

[You] led [us] with cords of kindness, with the bands of love, [You drew us to Yourself]

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain

For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let Your glory be over all the earth.

  1. I am giving away my late husband’s Yamaha Grand GC1 to a passionate instrument lover. If you know of a fellow teacher, student, family or churches that might be interested, please forward this email to them.

    God bless you.

    1. Hi Elisabeth. Did you find a good home for that piano? Let me know if not. My 14 yr old son is a talented pianist who studies under Dr. Atkinson her in town.

  2. Can anyone come into this church? I’ve been looking for one that’s close to home and this one seems to be the best option.

    1. Not quite sure what you are asking as far as “anyone”, but, if I understand the gist of your question, all who desire to draw closer to Lord Jesus are welcome, from the curious to seasoned followers. Hope this helps a bit.
      Peace.
