Good Morning! 

Note that we will not have class this coming Sunday (Christmas Sunday), due to a change in the time for church -- on Christmas Day, we will have one service at 10 AM.

 

For our next study, I think we are settling in on doing a study on the Book of Revelation.  The link below takes you to the Wikipedia entry for background information.

Along those lines, here are the links for a couple of books that look good as study guides:

 

Breaking the Code

Revelation:  Four Views

Open to any other ideas as well for study guides -- this is just a start.

 

Today's Scripture

All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:  "The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel" - which means, "God with us"

 

Matthew 1:22:23

Today's prayer request:      Saundra Aaron

Saundra is Valerie's brother's mother-in-law, and she is going through chemo right now for breast cancer.  She has gotten to to the part where the worst side effects hit -- loss of hair, etc.  We just need to remember her and her family as they go through this difficult situation, especially here at the holidays.

Today's class member prayer:  

Jerri Wesson

Have a great day.
