and a lesson. In addition to the care groups, a regular

| MONDAY NIGHT FOR THE MASTER |

A major congregational evangelistic program designed for
all members. This evangelistic and edificational outreach ministry is
aimed at many in the community (non-members) and also those in the congregation
(members). The evening begins at our building with a provided hot meal
at 6:00 p.m. for all workers (and their children). The "work" begins
around 6:40 p.m. after a brief inspirational devotional and instruction
period. Three major work groups function each Monday night. Teams go
out that night and make several visits each to visitors to our services,
prospects, new members, newcomers to town, delinquent members, shut-ins,
teens, elderly, bereaved, etc. Other teams work at the building writing
encouragement cards to many different people (members and non-members).
Other teams work at the building making telephone calls to many different
ones (members and non-members). Other areas of work include: grading
and correcting Bible Correspondence courses; sending messages to our
supported missionaries & their families; prayer groups; clerical duties;
coordination of teams; baking cookies; meal preparation; and other ministries.

Room 19 |
|

A 7:15 p.m. Wednesday night class based on
John Clayton's thought that the original support group was
the church. This ladies' support class began about seven
years ago. It is not a Bible class per se, although scripture
is read and the class starts with the Serenity Prayer and
ends with the Lord's Prayer. Two nights a month, class members
discuss topics such as love, fear, stress, etc. One Wednesday
night is a Gratitude Night, where thankfulness is shared.
One Wednesday is Birthday Affirmations, where class members
who have celebrated a birthday during a given month receive
positive affirmations from other class members regarding
the celebrant's strengths, what has been learned from them,
their good points, etc. The participants also share activities
that are going on in their lives.
