SINGING MINISTERS & SINGING WOMEN –– The Singing Ministers and Singing Women of Louisiana will present a free concert at Broadmoor Baptist this Thursday, January 24, at 7:00 p.m. Yours truly sings with the group. Sometimes Benjie Harlan shows up. Hope you can come for the concert.

JUBILATION RINGERS –– Due to the Bible Study during Discipleship Training time this coming Sunday, we will not meet for rehearsal. We still have a couple of vacancies; one for the really big bells. The ability to read music, at least rhythm, is a must.

PRIME TIME SINGERS –– Our Senior Adult Choir had forty-two singers in attendance last Tuesday. Next Tuesday, January 29, we are going to sing at Glenview Gardens for our first excursion of the new year. We sing at 10:00, if you’d like to come hear us. I’d invite you to ride with us, but the bus is full! After the concert we’re going to The Olive Garden for lunch.

YOUTH TYPE PEOPLE –– Youth Choir is in the planning stages for SonPower. If you want to be a part of it, you need to get in with us ASAP so we can get your registration in. All you have to do is sing for me and sign our agreement. So far, eight people have lived through it. The odds are that you would, too.

RECYCLING –– Youth Choir is still accepting cell phones and inkjet cartridges for recycling. Proceeds from these, as well as newspaper sales and the garage sale, will provide support for our trip to Orlando for SonPower, June 22-29. There are separate collection boxes for both cell phones and inkjet cartridges in the main hallway.

A WORSHIP QUOTE –– “Nothing is as dangerous as encountering the true and living God. Why? Because meeting God redefines everything we call normal and commands us to seek first his kingdom (Matthew 6:33).” Mark Labberton, The Dangerous Act of Worship: Living God's Call to Justice. pp. 63-64.
