  • “Springtime Is for Lovers”
    Vol. 6, No. 4 http://ImmanuelHouston.org/ March 2017 “Springtime Is For Lovers” “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.” John 13:34 February 2nd, Punxsutawney Phil took a timid look outside, got a glimpse of his shadow and headed back into hiding, signaling to the world that we would have six more weeks of winter and springtime would just have to wait. As I write this article I can hear the hum of the A/C. The grass is springing back to life, the leaves are emerging green and vibrant, and the mercury has risen to the mid 80’s outside. Maybe it is actually springtime regardless of what some pampered rodent named Phil thinks… and we all know that spring is for lovers. At least according to the over 14 million hits I got when I Googled that phrase. But seriously, it doesn’t matter what time of year it is, LOVE is for the Body of Christ. Jesus did not command that we simply be polite. He didn’t go on and on that we must dress appropriately when we go to church on Sundays. He didn’t even command that we have a neat and tidy facility that is warm and inviting. Jesus commanded that you love one another just as He loved you. You, me, and every other person that has ever lived is a sinner. We violate God’s commandments and do things every day to stray from His path and put distance between Him and us.

Life will change for Hans and Caroline; a bit more relaxation and time for new adventures, but he is also mindful of the different world in which his sons and their projected families will have to operate the business and frame their lives. He confided, “I worry about the future for all our families”. I remained quiet because it was Hans’ moment of reflection, “But” he meditatively reflected, “I believe we are thinking about the important issues at St Mary’s at the moment. I believe that it is because God cares about the world, he made the greatest sacrifice by sending his Son to save it. As his followers, we must continue what he started when he entered into the history of the world. We have been sent to do our bit to change the world.

  • Usher Guidelines
    Bethel United Methodist Church Ushering and Greeting Ministry Thank you for offering yourself in service as an usher or greeter at Bethel UMC. This is an important ministry of hospitality and you have an important role and responsibility. You will be one of the first people visitors will see. You are the first impression of our church. How you meet them and what you say to them will help set the tone for their worship experience here. Ushering and greeting calls for patience, courtesy and discernment. Almost like entertaining friends, you are the host or hostess and each person coming to worship is your special guest. Your warm greeting and pleasant smile will help foster a sense of belonging, even for a newcomer. In addition to greeting people, your service as an usher is essential to the worship of our congregation. People cannot take their seats, follow the order of worship, receive communion, or give their offerings to God without you. Your service, performed in a quiet, reverent and unobtrusive manner, helps create a meaningful atmosphere for sacred worship. Our Ushering and Greeting ministry is coordinated by our Head Usher Rick Putnam. Rick will also oversee the training and scheduling (beginning October 1, 2007) for our ushers. Bethel United Methodist Church Usher Guidelines Dress – We ask that our ushers dress in such a way to reflect the reverence and dignity of the worship setting. Clothing needs to be clean and pressed. For men, suits, sport coats, shirt and tie or even a conservative sport shirt are appropriate. For women, conservative dresses, skirts and blouses, dress slacks and sweater are appropriate.

    The Word “In Thee Is Gladness” “Mine!" What do you think of when you hear the word, “Mine!” The first thing I think of is a struggle between two youngsters. Standing in the middle of toys scattered across the floor there is always one toy that a child wants over another. Whenever anyone gets In this Issue: close to the block, or car, or ball the shout is heard, “Mine!” Often, mother’s and father’s run quick to the scene with some embarrassment. “Son, share with your “The Word on our St. Paul’s Ministries”” friend.” “Daughter, that’s not yours, give that back to her.” page 2 “The Word on the Hymn of the Season” While some equate these selfish times with the “terrible twos” others give a different page 3 name. Understanding the quest for independence and the development of awareness “The Word on our Local Mission” of oneself in relation to other people and things, some have call these times the page 4 “opportunity twos.” This is the opportunity to guide independence, interest and “The Word on Local/National Missions”” energy in the right direction.
