If you can help on either day, it would be most appreciated. Please contact Kurt & Sarah at 403-921-9021 or 403-829-7690. This is a great opportunity for your small group to serve together!
EVANGELISM TRAINING
We're offering some evangelism training this Saturday, May 30 from 9:00 am to 2:30 pm in the chapel at the seminary in Cochrane. We'll talk about our fears related to evangelism, how to tell our stories and methods for sharing the gospel. If you plan to come and haven't yet signed up, please contact Steve. Breakfast, lunch and refreshments are provided.
Also, just a reminder that we're going to track how we're doing as a church with sharing the Good News about Jesus. When you plant a seed by sharing your faith, let Steve know and we'll add it to the total.
BAPTISM SERVICE & BBQ
Everyone is invited to Thom & Lorie Gordon's on Sunday, June 7 at 3:00 pm for a baptism service and BBQ (please bring a salad, side dish or dessert to share). Come celebrate with and support those in our church family who are taking the next step in their walk with Jesus by following Him in believer's baptism. If you're interested in being baptized or even just exploring it further, please talk with Steve, Bob, Thom or Max.

GOD'S WORD IN YOU
Here's the memory verse for this week: Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers (Psalm 1:1-3 NIV).

SERMON FOLLOW-UP
Thinking about the message last Sunday...
- A key point: Giving ourselves away means being willing to give away our best.
- For further reflection: Jesus said, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it." (Matthew 16:24-25) How does this verse apply to your life? How does it apply to Tapestry?
This week, the message will be based on look at Acts 13:13-52, where we continue following Paul and Barnabas on their missionary journey.

Sowing Seeds, International Dinner, & Discover Tapestry
13/05/09 19:53
SOWING
SEEDS
As a follow-up to the Action 52 evangelism message a couple of weeks ago, we're going to track how we're doing as a church with sharing the Good News about Jesus. When you plant a seed by sharing your faith, let Steve know and we'll add it to the total. Also, just a reminder to be praying for your friends, neighbors and family members who don't yet know the Lord. It's amazing what happens when we begin to pray for the lost and ask God to open doors to share the gospel. It will be exciting to see what God does as we're faithful to pray and share!

SERMON FOLLOW-UP
Thinking about the message last Sunday...
- A key point: When we're feeling overwhelmed and inadequate, Jesus is able to take what little we have and make it more than enough.
- For further reflection: Steve closed his message with this invitation from Jesus: "Are you tired? Worn out" Burned out...? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me - watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly." (Matthew 11:28-30, The Message). How can you apply these verses to your life?
This week, we'll return to our study of Acts and look at Acts 13:1-12. Check it out ahead of time!
