2019 January 27 Announcements

Roxy Blunier • January 28, 2019

The collection for the month of January is for our HarvestCall Disaster Relief fund.  This church collection is to provide readily available funds in anticipation of a disaster occurring later in the calendar year.  Examples include tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, or other national or local disasters similar to what happened to Washington or where our Harvestcall work teams have been.

The Athens, AL congregation is excited to announce ALive 2019. In addition to a new name, this event also has a new vision to provide a place where brothers and sisters can come from across our brotherhood to connect and strengthen relationships, rest and become even more ALive spiritually in their Christian walk with the Lord. The event, which replaces the Athens/TN Fellowship Weekend, will be centered around the topic -- “All Things New”. This depicts what God has and is doing for the Athens congregation in leading them to a new venue for the weekend called, “The Vision”. The theme also reflects God working in each of us as we have become new creatures in HIM. Further, at various times, God calls us to do something new in our lives, and we answer that call and then walk by faith. Ministering Brothers Matt Knapp (Peachtree City, GA) and Mark Reinhard (Bluffton, IN) plan to speak on these topics during the weekend.   Click-here for details and registration information.

Each year, the Apostolic Christian Church hosts a series of camps throughout the summer for young people to gather for fellowship with others within our denomination.  The weekend is full of fun and spiritually uplifting activities. Members serve as our camp counselors, so if there are mature young people within your congregation that may be interested in serving in this way, please pass along the contact information to them.  We have had many counselors testify of the blessing it is to get to know one another as well as the kids within their cabins. Friendships and mentoring relationships often form during these camps.   Click-here for dates and contact information.

We plan to have ACCFS come and speak about mentoring and how we can be equipped to help others grow stronger in Christ. This will be held at the Fellowship Hall this Wednesday evening, January 30th.

We will be having the Adult Bible Study at the Fellowship Hall each Sunday morning in February starting at 10am. This is a great opportunity to invite a friend or a neighbor. Bro. Jedd will be teaching the class.

There will be a one gift wedding shower for Jessica Wiegand and Max Hodel in the Gathering Room on Tuesday, February 5th, from 7 to 8 pm. Please bring $5.00 to $10.00, a paper product and a recipe.  If you have any questions, please see Sis. Pam Wiegand.

Just a reminder that rotating potluck packets are ready for pickup at the message center. Please make sure to pick yours up today. Thanks! Sisters Jennifer Stoller and Joni Zacha

There are several in our church family that have not been able to assemble with us for quite some time.  We miss them and want to extend a call for prayer on their behalf.  If you find it in your heart to pay them a visit, it would be appreciated as well.

Wanda Edwards, Marian Wiegand, Mildred Heinold, Elna Grimm, Carolyn Ott, Melvin Heinold, Wilma Knapp

A reminder to keep your calendar clear for the week of August 5-9.  Please plan your vacations around this week as we are pleading for your participation and attendance in hosting the Brotherhood Conference.  It will be a wonderful bonding experience for our church family as we work together toward this event, and experience the Christ-Centered Love of the global denominations in August.  We are looking forward to your cooperation and interactions as we proceed with the planning.  

It’s time to update our church directory.  If you have any changes, please let Bro. Randy or Sis. Roxy Blunier know.

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
