WINTER 2011- This Sunday and Beyond

This Sunday our winter message series, TRANSFORMED, continues with a message concerning the LIFE-changing essential of forming GODLY relationships. As a church we do this best through our LIFEgroups - and the ParkwayHills leader in this effort, Jim Thomas, will teach us this Sunday about what God's WORD say's about this exciting essential of our faith in HIM.

I am also pleased that this month includes the ordination of 5 new deacons; Dave Davenport, David Hendrixson, Kasey Hester, Will McDade and Al Valente. Also joining our deacons in ministry is Lee Jenkins, and, if you have never been to one of these services, you will want to come. It is so exciting to see the church set persons apart in call and ministry - and at this service on the afternoon of Sunday, the 23rd, you will see 1st hand why this is so.

Finally, please note one thing more - on Saturday, February 5, ParkwayHills will host a fund raising banquet and auction for our Brazilian Church Planting Partnership known as P70. If you have been at ParkwayHills for anytime at all then you know this ministry is very dear to my heart - and on this night, the night prior to Super Bowl Sunday, I pray to see many of our church come out in support. If you have have not heard, through this partnership ParkwayHills has planted over 16 churches - and now gives monthly support to their pastors keeping them on the field so that the gospel may be shared. Through P70 we have seen hundreds of people come to Christ and I know of no other mission, church-planting, endeavor that has yielded more in terms of converts through new local churches than this. Please mark your calendars in order to be a part of this special evening. Come! Bring your friends! Purchase a table and bring others or a seat to bring yourself and learn how you can be a part of this wonderful mission effort. For more information concerning the banquet, go to http://www.parkwayhills.org/index.php and click on P70 Missions Banquet as it scrolls on our Home Page Banner.

Till Sunday, then -


Pastor Sam
