Bulletin Announcements – 17 June 2012

Welcome to week 3 of Missions month. Our theme this year is “Messing up Missions!”. We look forward to learning how (not) to do that. Today Desmond Chu will be the speaker. Over the course of this month we pray we would become more convinced that God’s heart is for all the peoples of the earth – a task we are called to cooperate with, a task too important to mess up.

A great opportunity to relax and fellowship with people from both English services. Please keep Oct 5-7 free.
