Next, Jerrie Lou told the Children's Story, about a canoe camping trip and a clever solution to bears.
After children's offering & regular offering, Jonathan & Alison and their daughters sang for "Oh How I Love Jesus" for special music.
Tammy and Leah had a nice class for the children during the church service, complete with a felt board lesson story that the children really enjoyed.
Thanks for taking some of these photos Alison G.
Doyle did the scripture and prayer before the pastor spoke. Then Pastor Josue had the sermon about the power of Christ in our lives.
After church, we had a lovely picnic-style potluck meal downstairs in the fellowship room. So nice to visit with each other!
Liza made the beautiful centerpiece bouquets with flowers from her garden! They were sent home with various families after potluck to bring beauty to their homes in the coming week.
After potluck it was nice to look over at the pond area and spot some nature surprises there before leaving the church.
So nice to catch up on the special service that you had while I was away. Especially great to see the new praise leaders and I'm so sorry I missed the Gerrans family music.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Glenda, for sharing these pictures of the OCC family at worship this past Sabbath. And extra nice to see Alison and her precious family. I have happy memories of seeing her as a little girl standing on the church’s platform with her sister, playing their violins.
