Taking It Outside!!!

What a great Sunday this will be!!!!! I am very excited about the gathering on the 30th. So, here are the details.

Sunday morning 10:00 a.m. We will have our worship service at Werner Park in Russell. This is where all the ball fields are on Rt. 62 just a half mile or so south of PF. (There is a map on our website worshipplace.org) Come early - there will be coffee and donuts before the service. Bring lawn chairs.

During the worship service there is much happening. We will glorify and declare the praises of King Jesus. We will hear some great reports of what God is up to in "the field" and we will hear testimonies and baptize people. The Heart of Praise Dance Team will be ministering as well. I just got a call today that Pastor Peter from Kenya will be joining us for the service. I have to smile at the way God orchestrates things. Also, Wes and Danielle Chapman from YWAM Tyler will be there as will Brendan Halbohm who will give a report on what he has seen God do this year through Kingdom Force ministry.

After the service we will have a good old fashion picnic. Make sure you remember to bring a large "dish to pass" as well as table settings for you and your family. Water, lemonade and iced tea will be provided.

There is much to do down there, so bring your toys, softball gloves, guitars or anything else you would like.

Those of you getting baptized, please note that you are getting baptized during the morning service before lunch. A trailer will be there for you to change in afterward or you can go up to PF and get changed there.

Please be praying for good weather. But if it is bad, we will just have everything at PF including the baptism and picnic (indoors in the cafe).

How will we get the word out about bad weather? We won't!!! If you are coming from the south and see everybody at Werner park then stop. And if you are coming from the North and no one is at the church then we are at Werner Park. You get the idea :-)

Please be praying for the unchurched and unsaved to come to this - let's believe God for the harvest.

Help Get the word out about the time and place of the service.

For those of you who are internet viewers, please make note that we are not able to broadcast from there. Sorry! If you do want to join via audio, we can always have cell phones sitting in front of the speakers. Give someone a call.

  1. I would like to throw out a name for the outdoor service [maybe yearly service :) ]... "Praise in the Park". I saw it on a sign of another church in meadville on my way home and thought that it would fit. I enjoyed the service and fellowship after although I could not stay for as long as I wanted.
