Assembly of God

Service/Gathering Times: Sunday morning at 10:30 in Clubhouse 3, Room 2; Wednesday morning Bible study at 10 in Clubhouse 3, Room 2; the Hymn Sing will be held this Sunday, Sept. 25, at 6 p.m. in the Clubhouse 3 Lobby.

Announcement: The Hymn Sing has been a well-loved ministry to residents of Leisure World for over 20 years. Pastor Dan Ballinger, with his beautifully trained voice and gentle humor, and Norma, with her melodic accompaniment at the piano, have been the power couple behind the Hymn Sing and its continuing ministry. All present and former attendees of the Hymn Sing are invited to come and honor Pastor Dan and Norma for their decades of faithful leadership at their last Hymn Sing on Sunday, Sept. 25, at 6 p.m., in the Clubhouse 3 Lobby. Those who have enjoyed Hymn Sing are invited to shower the Ballingers with notes and cards expressing appreciation for their ministry and friendship. There will be a basket to collect the cards and notes at the door.

Sermon for this week: This Sunday is a special day from morning till night. On Sunday morning, a longtime friend and missionary to Asia Pacific will share what God is doing through them in a difficult part of the world to reach.

Bible Study: “Whisper,” by Mark Batterson, continues to call followers of Christ to listen for God’s voice. The brief video presentation sets out the study for the session, and the discussion and questions that follow lead students to a deeper level of intimacy with God.
