Deacon of the Month

WMU Christmas Project - Showing the Love of Jesus!
You did it again! Your giving enabled families in our community to experience a Christmas with gifts for the parents who are desperately trying to raise their children right as well as for their children. Beyond sharing gifts, your giving demonstrated to these families the meaning of Christmas—God’s love...seen in your kindness and generosity!
I’m so thankful for the spirit of love and giving which abides within our church family. You’ve done good and I’m grateful to be part of such a wonderful church! In fact, I can see you in Jesus’ parable found in Matthew 25:31—40...I can see our King smiling, too!
Revival Services
Our guest speaker (Dr. Michael Cogdill) challenged us, encouraged us, and taught us helping us understand and apply God’s Word! The choirs from Albertson, Spilman, our own here at Deep Run, as well as Mike Ham and Matthew Hill lifted our spirits to the presence of God’s throne.
Thank you all for making these times together effective and successful… those who continually prayed, those who provided the refreshments, those who attended, and our many guests each and every one helped to make our times together something special. Dr. Cogdill mentioned time and time again what a warm and welcoming church we are and all I can add is Amen and Amen!
It continues to be one of our greatest joys to be with our church family. Our times of fellowship, discipleship, ministry, and worship are a blessing. I praise God for your willingness to serve Him, His church here at Deep Run, and our community. Thank you for being such good ambassadors—may that spirit of cooperation, humility, and service continue on as long as we are this side of heaven! God bless
you for your faithfulness.
Homecoming - A Grand Celebration
- Our Charter Members finishing our Walk of Honor
Church—you did a job well done! Our Homecoming was absolutely wonderful. Pastor Norm Davis, Jr. had a great message for us...stay connected! Our Walk of Honor was dedicated—thank you Charter Members for the finishing touch. We do hope to add more engraved bricks every year as we grow God’s kingdom.
Our Homecoming/Fellowship Committee along with our Cook-Out Crew made for a feast meant for the princes and princesses you all are in God’s Family! Our Choir is amazing! I’m still wanting a CD or two recorded with our choir’s greatest hits.
Everything seemed to go very well. Thank you, everyone, who made this day A Grand Celebration!
God is good!
Our Walk of Honor and the Men Who Put It Together
KNOW HIM MORE—SERVE HIM BETTER—LOVE HIM DEEPER
These three goals are something all God’s children share; something we strive to accomplish; and something your church desires for all it’s members. We seek to fulfill these goals in various ways on a local level as well as on the global stage.
Locally we have Sunday school for all ages—let me encourage you to join in this time of coming together studying, discussing, and asking questions about God’s Word. We also have our worship time each Sunday morning—again let me encourage you to join your church as we seek to encourage each other and glorify our Father through faithful obedience.
Another opportunity we have for our members and guests is our Wednesday Night Bible Studies. We hope to expand our ministry—ministering to more through varied classes. We’ll continue our Through the Bible class meeting in the parsonage...studying one chapter of Scripture (in sequence) each Wednesday. To this we hope to add classes for “Couples”, “Women”, and “Men”—helping meet more of the spiritual needs of God’s people.
We are looking to build God’s Kingdom as well as your spiritual foundation through these various classes.
Please make your plans to come to one of these classes—each class will help you KNOW HIM MORE; the result...being more like Jesus!
PS—our Through the Bible class starts back September 8 and the other three will start on September 15. Sheets are by the organ for you to sign-up—you’ll be glad you did!
