Minister’s Corner

Shalom aleikhem! שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיכֶם Peace be upon you!

Good morning and may God richly bless you in this new month of August with peace, a greater sense of His presence and an astounding clarity of your purpose.

Thank you for being at the Troy Church worship gathering this morning. Today we focus on God as our Provider. Jesus, our Lord, touched on this topic throughout His ministry and sometimes when I read His words, I tend to forget WHO is it that is talking. I tend to think it’s a good teaching instead of realizing it is much more than that. It is a promise. Why? Because I am not just being thought about God’s desire by someone who knows about it. I am being told by God of the ways He wants me to trust Him in the way He cares for me. We chase abundance. God says, focus on what’s needed today. Let tomorrow worry about what tomorrow needs. How much faith does it take to do that?

This Wednesday – August 7^th – Family Time & Bible Study

On Wednesday, we will meet in person for our Family Time at 6:00PM for those of you who want to bring their meal and eat it in the company of other brothers and sisters. This is our bi-weekly fellowship meal.

From 7PM, we will have a time of study lead by Pat Oja.

Birthdays this week: Kirk Imhoff (6^th);

Wednesday Class – Suggestions Please

We would like to see a greater number of our brothers and sisters on Wednesday evening and I am wondering what would take to make that happen. Please provide some suggestions that would make your trip to the church building worthwhile. It is always the same 8 or 9 families, and we would love to fellowship with some of our other brothers and sisters. That comes up to about 50% of the congregation so I’m not saying it’s not good. Definitely better % than many congregations but there are some of you we miss not seeing more than once a week.

Church of Christ Care Center – TODAY

Our next worship at the Care Center is TODAY. Please make plans to attend. Please arrive at 1:45ish. Service starts at 2PM but being early is a great way to shake some hands and show a bit of love to the residents of the Care Center.

Bible Study

If you would like an individual, one on one, Bible study on a certain subject, please send me an email at manu@troychurch.net and we can arrange a weekly meeting. Space is limited so first come, first served.

Offering

This morning besides the offering plate, you can as always have the option to make your contribution online at https://troychurch.net/give

If neither one of these options are suitable, please send a check to Lisa Jones. Her address is in the directory. Thank you.

God’s heart, not mine, is the measure of His giving; not my capacity to receive, but His capacity to give.― C.H. Spurgeon
