Promotion Sunday
August 14 | School is starting soon and as of August 14 for our church, your child is officially in their rising grade. So - children entering Kindergarten will be promoted to upstairs K-4 Children’s Church. Students entering fifth grade are now officially in the teen group. They will stay in the Sunday service and attend youth group on Wednesday evenings. (If you are wondering - the prek switch on their birthdays.)

MOPS & MOMSnext
Our local MOPS Group, is starting their 2022-2023 meeting year. They meet 2 times a month on Fridays, 9am - 11am, (please check the calendar for dates) in the upstairs Children's Center. It is a time of togetherness for moms of preschool-aged children. Each meeting they have a special emphasis with projects, special speakers, and sharing the word of God. Children are well cared for by background-approved workers. Children have crafts, snacks, playtime, and Bible stories. MOPS will be having an open house on Friday, August 19 from 9:30-10:30am. They invite you to join them and bring a friend. Their first actual meeting will be on August 26, from 9-11am. For more information and to contact a group member - use https://www.mops.org/groups/manteno. We also have a local MOMSnext group, which is geared towards mothers of kids in school. They meet every other Tuesday night at 7pm. There is no childcare provided as this is a much-deserved night out for moms. Again, the best way to get more information is https://www.mops.org/groups/momsnextmanteno

Griefshare
Saturdays | Starting August 20 | 10am | GriefShare, a special help seminar and support group for people experiencing grief and loss, is starting back up again on August 20. This round, they are meeting on Saturday mornings. It is a 13-week cycle that you can join at any time. Contact Pat Bialecke, 815-353-5804 for more information.

Getting Ready for Company
Some exciting changes are coming and we have your friends in mind! To offer a better experience for first-time attendees, beginning Sunday, August 21 we will be staffing a welcome desk to answer questions, offer a welcome packet, and help families get their children registered. The Kids Check-In that you’re used to will continue, but you’ll find it next to the welcome desk near the main entrance. Invite your friends to come early, pick up their welcome packet, and join you for coffee (right outside the sanctuary). New arrangements, updated signage, and fresh paint. We’ll go to great lengths to welcome your friends. We’re getting ready for company!

Journey Groups
Several new Journey Groups are launching the week of Labor Day. We’ll be offering Bible studies (Genesis , Esther, The Minor Prophets, Matthew, 1 Peter), life-phase groups (emerging adults, parents of kids and teens, 55+) as well as a group for men, groups for women and a group for new believers and those exploring faith. Various days and times will be offered. Several groups are being offered on Wednesday nights between September 7 and November 16 concurrent with our regular programming for kids and middle school students (we’re adding a nursery as well!). Each Wednesday we will also be offering dinner for any and all who would like to come (donations accepted). Wherever you are on the journey, we have a group for you! Look for more information and registration coming soon.

Pregnancy Resource Center
If you would like to donate to the Pregnancy Resource Center, we have baby bottles to fill with change available at the welcome center. Please return them to the church by September 1.

In Christ Alone

Verse 1 In Christ alone my hope is found He is my light my strength my song This Cornerstone this solid Ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm What heights of love what depths of peace When fears are stilled when strivings cease My Comforter my All in All Here in the love of Christ I stand Verse 2 In Christ alone who took on flesh Fullness of God in helpless babe This gift of love and righteousness Scorned by the ones He came to save Till on that cross as Jesus died The wrath of God was satisfied For every sin on Him was laid Here in the death of Christ I live Verse 3 There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain Then bursting forth in glorious Day Up from the grave He rose again And as He stands in victory Sin's curse has lost its grip on me For I am His and He is mine Bought with the precious blood of Christ Verse 4 No guilt in life no fear in death This is the power of Christ in me From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny No power of hell no scheme of man Can ever pluck me from His hand Till He returns or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I'll stand CCLI Song # 3350395 Keith Getty | Stuart Townend © 2001 Thankyou Music (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing) For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.

Sermon Notes

Forward Thinking: With Our Children Genesis 18:18-19 August 14, 2022 Psalm 90:12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. Forward Thinking… with our Children Remember: In no time they’ll be grown When you see how much time you have left you tend to let the things that matter most matter more. –Reggie Joiner Genesis 18:18-19 “Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and all nations on earth will be blessed through him. For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just, so that Remember: In no time they’ll be grown Truth needs to be known Remember: In no time they’ll be grown Truth needs to be known You’re not alone The only way to prove love is consistently, predictably, over time. – Reggie Joiner
