There is a Free “Coffee Time” at the Fellowship Center.  This will just be a “social time” for anyone who wishes to “drop in” and “visit” for a while between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m.  Initially Coffee Time will be open Mondays and Wednesdays in February and March, but days/times/duration may change based on feedback.  Please sign the sheet on the table in the hallway with what days would best suit your schedule.  If you would like to help or have questions, please contact Jeff Peck.

We will be remembering our college students and Military personnel with “Gifts of Love” (snacks) the week of February 14th.  Please help by providing snacks, placing them in the container in the hallway today.  Also, please update/add/delete the names and address list on the table in the hallway.

There are committee lists in everyone’s mailboxes and on the back table if you don’t have a mailbox.  If you would like to take your name off of a committee and try something new, please indicate it on the form.  Put your name on it and return it to Vanessa Lucas’ mailbox prior to February 9.  I would like to have the new committee lists out by mid-February.

Also, I am actively seeking a couple of men to take over the Mother’s Day committee this year.
Any questions, please feel free to see Vanessa Lucas.

We will be offering a Children’s Choir that will practice February and March on Wednesday Nights to prepare for a Children’s Easter Musical.  Practices will take place during the Midweek time; however, we will still have a Bible Lesson, Games and snack.  If you are interested, sign your kids up on the sheet in the vestibule.  For questions, please see Hillary Whaley

If you are interested in signing your child or a family member up for the Sprout Program, please sign them up on the signup sheet in the vestibule.  The Sprout Program is for kids ages birth to 5 years old where the Church gives resources to help them grow in faith.

Growing Spiritually Deeper
Loving “comfortable” neighbors
Feb 8, 2026

Acts 2:42-47 42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

1 Cor. 12:4-13 4 There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. 5 There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. 6 There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. 7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. 8 To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, 10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. 11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines. 12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by[c] one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.

Matt 12:46-50 46 While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. 47 Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.” 48 He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” 49 Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
