FROM THE CONSISTORY OR COUNCIL
We welcome all visitors worshiping with us today. May God’s name be exalted as we worship together. The order of our worship service is printed on the back of the bulletin.
The baptism of Cameron James, infant son of Marcus and Paige Andringa, is scheduled to take place this morning. We thank God for the gift of covenant children and pray He will grant the parents the grace needed to raise this little one in the fear of His name.
The public confessions of faith of Mariah Oostra and Faith Poppema will take place during the evening service today. We pray that God may bless them and give them the grace to perform the good works which glorify His name.
At their request the membership papers of Heidi Oostra have been transferred to Randolph PRC, David and Lai Yin Baldwin and their family to Calvary PRC, and Luke Van Engen to Crete PRC. We commend them to the care of these sister congregations.
