This weekend the pastoral staff will be at Indian Creek Camp for a pastors and elders' retreat that we are required to attend by the Kentucky-Tennessee Conference. Our guest speaker at church this Sabbath will be Melanie Bockmann. Melanie has been attending our church for the last 8 months and she and her husband recently had their membership transferred from Washington to our church. She is a doctoral student at Vanderbilt University. I know you are going to receive a blessing for her sermon on how Jesus ministered to the sick.

We are a quarter of the way through our goal of reading through the Bible as a church family. Even if you haven't done the readings it would be great to have you start now and do the readings with us. I think there is a real blessing in reading the Bible together. Hard copies of the Bible reading plans can be found at the kiosks in our lobbies. Here is a link to the online Bible reading plan for April. Let's Read the Bible Together – April.
