The Service of Worship
January 07, 2018

“Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve …
But as for me and my household,
We will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15

In this passage from Joshua, we are reminded of the choice
that we face in life – and the choice that we face today.
In response to God’s call – especially at the beginning of
a new year – let’s choose to follow Him.

Welcome to Huron Shores Fellowship!
We are glad that you are here.

We’ll talk about how to become a part of our church – and how you can find your place here at Huron Shores.

SUNRISE MISSION NEEDS WARM OUTERWEAR
Because we had warmer than usual weather this Fall, the Sunrise Mission didn’t get the usual amount of hats, gloves, scarves and warm socks. They are in dire need of these items and would like them to be NEW. There is a tub in the narthex where they can be put. Thank You! – Care and Outreach Team

OUR CHRISTIAN SYMPATHY
We extend our Christian sympathy to Audrie Rensberry on the passing of her husband, Vernell (94), on January 2, 2018. They celebrated their 72rd wedding anniversary last October. Please pray for Audrie and other family members during this time of loss. – “Vernell will be missed”

THANK YOU
Dear Church Family,
Thank you so much for your prayers, flowers, phone calls, text messages and visits during my time of surgery and healing.
You blessed me deeply. God’s Blessings on all of you.
– Pattie Howard.
