Hello Everyone! I pray that God is using you to impact a life this week

and challenging you toward continual spiritual growth in your walk.

With school about to begin, I am growing more excited about the Fall

here at FACC. Right now we are finalizing our plans and anticipating

the good that God is going to accomplish here as we seek to becomestronger disciples for Christ. Beginning Sept. 14th, Family Reunion will

start again. Each week beginning at 6:30 P.M., you can join us in the

Fellowship Hall for a time of refreshing. Each week at FAMILY

REUNION, our church family will enjoy one of the four options: Bible

study, Worship, Small Groups & Prayer, or a Christian Film. Its going

to be a lot of fun. Please join us!

Also this Fall, there will be some awesome Life groups that are

offered, including NOT A FAN, and FORGOTTEN GOD. Additionalstudies will be promoted soon. Check out the downstairs bulletin board

by the nursery this Sunday to see when everything is being offered.

Beginning this Sunday morning, we will offer a new Sunday School

elective entitled: Higher Love. We really believe this will benefit

your marriage. Check out other details in the AD on the front page

of the newsletter.

Let me close with this thought: Lets do whatever we can to changethe image of the Lords church in the community. As I spoke Sunday,

Dan Merchant learned that there is a disconnect with how people view

Jesus Christ and how they view the church. Unfortunately, the image

of the church has often been distorted because the world sees how

the Christian lives and that their actions often dont match up with

who they say they are living for. This week, lets make a conscious

effort to make God look bigger, not smaller in peoples eyes by the

choices that we make and the words that we say.

Cya Sunday,

Brad Seevers, Eph. 3:20-21
