Call to Worship
To the blessed and only Sovereign,
the King of kings and Lord of lords,
who alone has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light,
whom no mortal has ever seen or can see;
To him be honor and eternal dominion.
Amen.
Announcements
 Ladies Appreciation Dinner
Ladies you are invited to a dinner in your honor. The men at Laurelwood would like to serve you dinner in appreciation for your love of Christ, service to Laurelwood, and care for your neighbor.
Joint meeting Teachers & Nursery workers
Immediately after worship there will be an elementary teacher and nursery worker meeting to discuss some concerns and to get everyone on the same page. It is important if you are involved in either of these two areas to make sure you stay for this meeting.
Ladies we are in need of some bonding time. We would like to have a Ladies Breakfast in February or March, however we need someone who is willing to coordinate it. Would that be you? See Wini if you can help out.
Be Our Guest! The Warriors invite you to join them next Sunday, Feb. 9, for an afternoon of fun. We will be eating a bag lunch at the building then heading over to the bowling alley.
If you want to donate an item to the church whether toys, furniture, kitchen
items, or whatever, please see Wini Boyle. Wini has graciously volunteered
to oversee all donations.

Know Him, Love Him, Share Him
Know Him...
Encouragement from John and Brenda. Thought for your journey:
We may not be able to do any great thing for Christ today,
But if we will do the little things we can do,
They may mean something to someone else
down the road.
Love Him...
You Make theDifference
Once there was a church in which every member in it was exactly like you. Every member in that church worked just as hard as you do in this church. Each of them came together to worship with the rest of the Christians in that church just as often as you do here. When something needed to be done, they pitched in and helped just like you. When someone was baptized or moved into town, they welcomed them into the fellowship of believers just as warmly as you do. Whenever a fellow member asked for forgiveness or prayers before the congregation, they comforted and encouraged that member the way you comfort and encourage people.
The leadership was the same way. They prayed for souls of other Christians as often as you do. They tried to help those who were hurting or struggling about as often as you do.
And when it came to making sure all the goals for the year could be met and all the growth that had been hoped for could happen, each member of that church gave the same percentage of their income as you give now. They gave about the same amount of time to working with church activities as you do. They donated their talents to the growth of the church the same way you do.
In everyday living, they put God first—just as often as you do. At work, they talked with their co-workers the way you do. When put between a rock and a hard place, they didn’t care how much it cost them; they did what they thought Jesus would do—just like you.
What do you suppose happened to that church?
Every member isjust like you
