Special Announcements
REMEMBER – NO BIBLE CLASSES THIS WEEK: This Sunday, August 29th, there will be no adult or children’s classes during the 9:30-10:30 a.m. Bible class hour so that our teachers can have a break. Please note: there will also be no Kids’ Time church this week.
BREAKFAST IS SERVED! To kick off our fall Sunday school quarter, some of the excellent chefs from our body will treat us to breakfast during the Bible class hour (9:30 a.m.) on Sunday, September 5th, and there will be information available at that time about the new classes and small groups that will be starting up this fall.
A NOTE FROM PASTOR TOM: It’s time to pray! As elders, we have been gathering on Sunday mornings in my office to pray. God has prompted us to move to a larger room and open it up to everyone. So…we want to invite you to join us for prayer on Sunday mornings at 8:30 a.m. in the Fireside room. We will spend this time praying (not talking about prayer, thinking about prayer, but praying together) for the needs of the body, needs in the room, whatever needs God lays on our hearts to pray. We know that God listens to His children and we want to come into the throne room of grace for our time of need. So come and PRAY! And bring someone along with you. Please note: Since there are no Bible classes this Sunday, we will meet to pray at 9:30 instead of 8:30. On September 5th, we will start meeting at 8:30 again.
THREE OPPORTUNITIES FOR WOMEN:
- STUDY ON EPHESIANS: An evening and morning bible study on the book of Ephesians will be available beginning in September. This is a 15-week inductive Bible study using the Life Change series by NavPress. These studies cover individual books of the bible in a verse-by-verse format, incorporating historical insights, word definitions, questions, and application assignments. This particular book will examine truths about the believer’s identity in Christ, and will also look at the topics of unity, submission, and steadfastness.
Kelly Scheeberger will be leading the evening study at her home (1105 Glendale Drive in Raymore) starting Thursday, September 9th at 7 p.m. Please call her at 816-318-1724 if you are interested in her study. Suzie Barnett will lead the daytime study at her home (803 S. Halsey, Harrisonville) beginning Monday, September 13th, at 10:00 a.m. Suzie can be reached at 816-380-7181 if you would like to participate in this daytime group.
- BETH MOORE STUDY: Janelle Vignery will be starting another Beth Moore study on Thursday, September 2nd, at 6:30 p.m. here at Cornerstone. It is called The Patriarchs, and is a study of the love of God from the book of Genesis. Through this study, you will encounter the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and you will take a look at the lives of real people whose stories are not all that different than ours. If you are interested in this study, Janelle needs your $16 for the book by August 29th, and she will then purchase the books for the group. Please call or text Janelle at 816-668-2435 to sign up.
- THE GOOD AND BEAUTIFUL COMMUNITY: On Sunday mornings this fall, Barb Savage will be facilitating a small group for women on this third book in the Apprentice Series trilogy. In the book, James Bryan Smith helps us learn to “live in authentic ways as a good and beautiful community of Christ-followers.” Whether you have read the first two books or not, you will benefit from participating in this class. If you are interested in attending, please contact the church office (380-2422/office@cornerstonechurch.info) so that Barb can order a book for you.
