~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome, Visitors … We welcome every worshiper present and invite
everyone to discover the joy of God’s unending love. If you would like to
join our membership, fill in one of the cards in the pew holders and drop it
in the offering plate or hand it to the pastor. Please join us for the reception
in the Chapel following the worship service.
Sermon Synopsis … Among typical reactions to the miracles of Jesus, a
reader/hearer of scripture might respond with a joy-filled “Wow!” or
possibly even a puzzled-unsure “What?” or “Huh?” Jesus’ introduction
miracle of turning water into wine is one of those “What?” miracles. My
prayer and hope is that any existing “What?” reaction would become a
response of a joy-filled “Wow!”
Prayer List
Dianne Carlill, in treatment for acute myelogenous leukemia.
Tom Emmerson, art professor at Walla Walla University, in treatment for
a brain tumor wrapped around his optic nerve. Professor Emmerson is the
artist who drew the calligraphy on this bulletin stock.
Susan Harvey, dealing with health issues.
Werner Seidel, father of Kevin, diagnosed with acute myelogenous
leukemia.
Parent requesting prayers for a mentally ill child.
As a courtesy to others, please silence your cell phones, pagers,
and watch alarms. Thank you for your reverence of the worship service.
Children’s Sabbath School Pick-up … Because we are interested in our
children’s safety, we are asking that all parents pick up their children from
Sabbath School promptly at 10:50. This requirement is for all children in the
toddlers through primary age groups.
Live Streaming … Green Lake Church live streams its worship service. The
video of the sermon is archived. These services can be accessed through our
web site, greenlakesda.org. To watch the worship service, click on the first
green banner shown at the top of the website home page, “Tune in to our Live
Stream.” Then click on the first entry below the banner (the link to click lists
the date, sermon title, and preacher).
Hands Across the Waters … Donations currently go the Bamboo School and
Orphanage in Thailand in order to purchase a natural world and Bible-based
DVD/CD collection and a dining room with tables and chairs.
Concert This Afternoon … The Glendale Adventist Academy chorale (28member mixed chorus) and concert band (81 members) are performing at 5:00
this afternoon at the Bellevue Seventh-day Adventist Church, 15 140th Avenue
NE, Bellevue.
Softball Practice … Tomorrow at 5:00. Green Lake #6 off Stone Way about
54th.
Neighborhood Meal … On the fourth Sunday evening of each month through
November, Green Lake Church is providing a meal for approximately 60
homeless individuals at the George Center for Community in Lake City. If you
would like to join this group, contact Ellen Park ([email protected]) or
Elyse Lambeth ([email protected]).
International Sabbath is coming May 9. Plan to worship “Around the Table”
dressed in clothing that reflects an ethnic/cultural heritage, and bring a platter of
“international” food to share after the service—finger food ideal. If you would
like to help or participate, contact Darchelle ([email protected]) or Dana
at ([email protected]).
Strike Up the Band!
Attention, all brass, woodwind, and percussion
instrumentalists of Green Lake Church, let’s put together a BAND! The 4th of
July is on Sabbath this year, and what better way to celebrate our freedom than
with patriotic music played by our own Green Lake BRASS BAND? There are
quite a few talented wind ensemble musicians in the congregation, so let’s get
together to decide on repertoire, rehearsal times, and more. If you’d like to
participate, please contact either Dick Wonderly at [email protected] or
Craig Mohr at [email protected] and let them know you’re interested.
Spring Has Sprung! Do you love flowers? Do you love to garden? If so,
Green Lake Church could use your help. Each week we’d like to see the
window sills of the sanctuary filled with flowers, even just modest, simple
arrangements. Perhaps you have something from your own garden, or perhaps
you would like to bring items from your favorite florist. We will provide vases.
If interested, contact the Worship Planning committee:
Sellyna Ehlers
([email protected]) or Kim Goerlitz ([email protected]).
Prayer Team … The prayer team meets on the first and third Sabbaths in the
parents’ room after the worship service. Everyone is welcome. There are three
boxes in the narthex for prayer requests, answers, and silent prayers. During the week,
please feel free to contact Naomi Odell Lundstrom ([email protected] or 507-3583341). All prayer requests are confidential except when specifically asked to share.
Camp Meeting Lodging … Washington Conference would particularly like to invite you
to camp meeting June 12-20. We know it's a bit earlier than normal, and want to give
you ample time to make arrangements to attend. Make your lodging arrangements online
or call Donna Dickerson at (253) 681-6008. Keep track of camp meeting plans and
registration options at washingtonconference.org.
Housing … Tyler Henry is looking for a new place to live in Seattle and furniture storage
space for the summer. Creative housing is a possibility (Airstream trailer or vanagon).
Any ideas or connections you can send his way would be appreciated. Contact him at
[email protected].
Temporary Housing Needed … A room or apartment to rent is desired beginning
May 14 for four to six weeks by a brother and sister who will be in Seattle for a kidney
transplant at Swedish Hospital. They are Seventh-day Adventists from Brookings, Oregon,
in their mid-forties. She is a nurse and his caregiver during his surgery and recuperation.
