Friday Fives

1. Preaching Series - This Sunday we will continue our preaching series focusing on the Ten Commandments. Each week we will take a portion, see what they have to say to us now in this era, and wrap the series up by looking at Christ's response to these Mosiac Laws. This week we going to take a look at the idea of honor; specifically its nature, who we should honor, and how we can honor. Invite a friend and I hope to see all of you there! 

2. Wanna Help? – Have you been looking for a way to volunteer here at Druid Hills? Are you just not sure where to start or who to ask? On February 20th and 27th we will host a Ministry Fair here at the church. We will open up all the volunteer ministries of the church and give all of you a chance to sign up and get connected. After worship stay for lunch and take a trip around all the displays to see where you feel God leading you to volunteer.

3. Five Way Chili Dinner - On Saturday, March 5, 2011 from 5 to 7 pm, in Fellowship Hall we will host a Five Way Chili Dinner. The profits from this dinner will help to fund our Easter Tableau.  Tickets are available for sale in the Church Office, may be purchased from Eunice Reid on a Sunday morning, and will also be available at the door. Advance ticket purchase would be appreciated to help determine how much chili will be needed.  Price is $8 per person. 

There will also be a Variety Show immediately following the 5 Way Chili Dinner at approximately 6:30 pm. Got a talent you can share? We want to see it! For additional info, please ask Peggy Sue.  Mark your calendars and I hope to see you there!

4. Free on Wednesday? – This Wednesday, February 23, from 7-9pm, Tony Campolo will be speaking at the MTI Auditorium.  The topic is Tough Issues Thoughtful Christians Face and this is in line with the Bible Study that we just completed here.  The event is free but you are required to have a ticket.  For ticket orders of more information, please contact Grace Church at 352-622-7881.

5. Salty Service - A few months back I asked everyone to consider joining up together in groups to venture out and visit some of the residents in the many assisted living and rehab facilities around our church. There are many people there that get no visitors, and we are so good with fellowship, I see a need and a spiritual gift that can easily be paired up. I wanted to give everyone an update on how this budding ministry is progressing. We have three members that have reached out and began weekly visits to three different facilities. We also have a group of people that have formed to begin visits with a fifth facility. We have several contacts at area facilities, all we need is volunteers. Many people make light work. If you are willing to spend just a few hours a month visiting with people and sharing the love of Christ please contact the office and we can help you get connected. Please consider reaching out to the people in our area and let them know we care and in the name of Jesus Christ that they are loved.


Have an incredible weekend and see you Sunday!
