2019 April 14 Announcements

Roxy Blunier • April 15, 2019

We will open the collection boxes this month for our local Charity fund. Many lives are affected by your giving to this fund. If you know of anyone in need please see one of the Charity fund committee members.

There will be an all church baby shower for Lois Zimmerman and Mason Lehman’s baby Grayson on Monday, April 22nd in the Gathering Room from 7-8pm. Lois is the daughter of Bro. Mike & Sis. Gretchen Zimmerman.  Please bring 5-10 dollars and a baby item. Thank you in advance.

It’s spring and time for family hymn sing and our annual church pie night. Sunday, April 28th at 6 pm at the Fellowship Hall. We have invited Congerville church to join us for the evening.

Your brethren in Latty & Junction, Ohio are humbled and excited to be able to host the 2019 AC MenSing in Latty on August 24th and 25th. If you are interested, go to www.acmensing.org to register for further updates. We look forward to a God-praising weekend of fellowship and song!

The Bible Study committee has been approached over the years about various other avenues for Biblical learning. One constant area is women ministering to other women.  After prayerful thought, it was decided to survey the women to see what all your thoughts are on these options. Many of you women received the survey Saturday at the Ladies’ Brunch. They ran out of copies so it was emailed out.  If you have filled yours out, please put it in the labeled container to at the information center. For those who did not get a survey, there are copies back at the information center. If you have any questions, see Sis. Brittany Zeltwanger.

Visitation for the Alwood and Wall families from Timberline will be at our Fellowship Hall this Wednesday from 4-6 with services at 6pm. Our church family is going to furnish a meal for them at the church at 7pm that evening.  Please keep these families in your prayers during this time of extreme loss and pain.

We plan to have Good Friday services for all starting at 7pm this Friday with communion immediately after. Babysitting will be provided. There are signup sheets at the message center to sign up your kids. There is also a signup sheet for those who would be willing to babysit. Please see Sis. Amy Sinn for details.

On Easter Sunday, April 21st we will have a “sunrise service” at 7:30 a.m. at the Fellowship Hall followed by an all church breakfast.  We will then have a regular morning service at 10:00 a.m. but no lunch or afternoon service that day.  There will not be an Adult Topical Bible Presentation that morning.

Announcement from the Apostolic Christian Home of Eureka:

We are excited to announce that Victory Home Care Services, our joint venture with the  Apostolic Christian Home of Roanoke is officially licensed and open for business!  We will be providing home care services such as homemaking duties, transportation, medication assistance and personal & hygiene assistance.  This is private pay service and is a great way for seniors to be able to stay in their homes longer.   If you know of individuals who would benefit from these service,  please direct them to call our Home at 309-467-2311 or to go to www.victoryhomecare.org for additional information.  Also, we are looking for caregivers with a heart to serve the senior population.  Caregivers do not have to be a CNA or have prior experience, as training will be provided.  If you are interested in being a caregiver, please contact the Home.  

We are thankful to announce that Mae Kelly is at peace with God and man and desires baptism. We will plan to have Mae’s testimony and baptism along with Bill Koepnick this Tuesday starting at 7pm. Please be prayerful for Mae and Bill.

We rejoice with Clayton and Lexi Wiegand as they were blessed with a baby girl, Adelyn Rae on April 8th.

April is our Charity Fund collection so we will continue that through the end of the month. Please reach out to the charity committee if you know of someone in need. Sis. Jill Wagner wishes to let everyone know she is making face masks for friends and family. These are available at no charge (adult size only so far…). Please contact Sis. Jill if you want any. There will be separate young group girls and guys Bible studies this Tuesday evening starting at 7:00 pm. Check your email for an invitation to connect with zoom. Hope to see you all. Cole Zeller and Sabrina Glueck's Wedding - May 3, 2020 To our dear church family. Because of the current shelter in place mandate, the plans for Bro. Cole Zeller and Sis. Sabrina Glueck's wedding plans have changed. They will still be getting married May 3 at 11:00 am but with a very small amount of people. If you would like to watch the wedding live, you can go to the Goodfield AC Church website ( goodfieldacchurch.org ) and click the "Watch Live" tab. You can also listen in on the website or AC Central. Our hope is, Lord willing, to have a reception at a later date. If you would have gifts that you have already purchased for them to start their new home, you can contact Bro. Cole (309-678-8096) or Sis. Sabrina (309-267-5676) via text or call to make arrangements to drop them off. We have so appreciated the loving thoughts, texts, emails, cards and prayers we have received this past few weeks. Although we sometimes don't understand what is going on currently in the world, God does know, and it is Him who we completely trust! You should have received an email about the CARES act this week with biblical principles to consider. Bro. James Fehr from Tremont had a very nice talk about it on April 15th that you can listen to on AC Central. There will also be an Around the Table podcast on this subject as well. Our Zoom fellowship meetings will begin this week. Your group leader will be reaching out to you to set a time. Thanks to all who signed up. We are looking forward to seeing your faces and having some quality time together. Sis. Gretchen Zimmerman’s dad recently passed away. Please be prayerful for the Vietti and Zimmerman family during this time of loss. We are very thankful Jim recognized Jesus as his savior. We are very thankful that Reggie Plattner is at peace with God and desires baptism. Please pray for Reggie and encourage him during this most important time in his life. If you have any words of encouragement or concerns, please contact him. We are so thankful for surrendered hearts. Note from Elder Committee: This letter is to share our change in plans (due to COVID-19) for the August General Conference which was scheduled to be hosted by our Rittman, OH congregation. As an Elder Body, we appreciate the opportunity to communicate with the church during our General Conference. And while we are sharing with you that we are canceling the in-person Thursday evening Elder/Minister Meeting and Friday General Conference this year at Rittman , the Agenda Committee is working on alternative approaches for us to communicate with the Church in August. We would ask each of you to be prayerful as they seek to discern the Holy Spirit’s direction so that we can still “gather together” in a way that is “decent and in good order.” At this point, we have not made a decision regarding an in-person Elder Meeting this August. Lord willing, we plan on determining the appropriate path forward for the Elder Meeting by mid-June. We trust this decision, which was made prayerfully and carefully, reflects the Holy Spirit’s direction, as well as an understanding of the current and near future “reassembling of large gatherings” realities across the United States. We appreciate the efforts of the Rittman brethren that have been underway over the last year to be prepared for the upcoming Conference, and trust that the way will open for us to assemble with them at a General Conference in 2021. Our prayer is that " your love may abound more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; that you may approve things that are excellent; that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ; being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God " (Phil. 1:9-11). The Elder Committee
