Random Notes for Sunday

• Don't be late Sunday; we'll be starting right on time or a little early due to all the activities that morning.
• We're issuing our ballots-that-aren't-really-ballots on Sunday. It's important to note that this is not just a democratic vote, like a popularity contest you'd see outside of the Church. The folks who are candidates for a three year term have been selected by the Elders after months of prayer. But our Elders still desire the affirmation of the congregation before this is made official. So we pass around what appears to be a ballot; but the "ballot" is really a feedback tool for the Elders. And with conscientious Elders like ours, we can trust them to take the feedback quite seriously.
  
• Our church photo will be after the Worship service and before Sunday School. Below is the angle the photographer will probably use. Our rain-date will be October 21.
  
  
• For those of you scoring at home, I'll be preaching on the "other" Lord's Prayer from John 17 this Sunday. My Sunday School class is working on Revelation 17, 18 and Matthew 24.
  
• We'll finally publish another church directory after this Sunday.
