Just a reminder that tomorrow night is the combined Knappa/Astoria midweek service in Knappa! (See last weeks blog for directions) Please everyone come out to show your support for our family in the east! It's gonna be a fun time of fellowship, music, message, treats and more treats! Don't want to miss it! Nursery provided. (No Thursday night service in Astoria)
Sounds like I missed an awesome service last Sunday! Can't wait to listen to Pastors marriage message on-line, amazing people joined our church, and the sanctuary was filled with worship!
Our next lifeGroup will be at Langston's home in Knappa on Sunday Feb 5 at 4pm. We will be BBQing salmon, so bring things to go with that. Will need salads, garlic bread, deserts, drinks. Please respond with what you would like to bring and we will firm this up as we get closer to the date! Will have some new people join us, can't wait!
Any prayer requests out there? Please continue to pray for Johna as she continues to be with family in California. She should be coming home soon, pray for her safe return.
As we praise God for the growth He is providing in His church, pray for Him to provide resources to go with this growth; financial as well as faithful workers! And ask Him to continue to encourage, strengthen and keep rested our Pastor, leaders and servers.
Hope to see you all tomorrow! Carol

January lifeGroup
Had a great get together at the Rasmussen home! Thanks so much to Ralph and Randi for their hospitality and to-die-for lasagna!
This up coming week is our service week, but since so many of our members are greeters, we will need help from other lifeGroups!
Thursday coffee: Ralph (yep, that right guys we have the 1st male barrista!) and Lena
Nursery: Randi and Janae
Sunday coffee: HELP! Carol will be contacting other leaders for someone to fill in
Nursery: Randi and Janae (after she finishes greeting)
Please check out previous blog for review of the coffee rules!
On Thursday of our service week, Rick and Johna will be the "leaders" as Newt and Carol will be attending evening service in Knappa on Wed.
Reminder: nursery workers... be sure to get a background check done, forms at church from
Kathy B
Really important to periodically check the blog! This is how we communicate what's happening in the church and in our group. Also easy to check other group blogs and Pastors blog from our page.
Rick and Johna are responsible for filling the serving positions. If you can't fill your spot in the nursery or coffee, contact them immediately so they can find someone else. All other communication for our group needs to go to Newton and Carol.
We discussed changing the Sunday we meet. Our lifeGroup will meet on the Sunday before our week to serve. This way everyone knows their schedule for the upcoming week and it will be easier to remember signing up for serving! Also, we are then free to help other lifeGroups that may need help (babysitting for example) It just so happens that for us, this will remain the first Sunday of the month for the next few months. Upcoming dates:
Feb 5 Newton and Carols home - time and details to follow
March 4
April 1
We will be meeting in different homes; remember to invite friends, neighbors to join us!
Upcoming events:
Jan 21 Ownership class
Jan 22 Marriage Series begins
Feb 12 Date Night Challenge
Jan 25 Mid week service in Knappa
Prayer requests:
Ralph's mom and divorce situation so she can move on
James work to pick up and remain steady, home for him and Janae
Brad Mathews, Tim's co-worker to develop relationship with God
Adams log truck to hold together
Church finances, not just to maintain, but exceed needs
Johna, for safe travels and wisdom as she deals with a family issue
Tim and Teresa's house
Please remember to comment whenever you have a prayer request, or just want to share.
