April 25, 2015
FREDERICK ADVENTIST ACADEMY
Welcome to Worship: Our church welcomes you with open arms and
hearts. Whether you are new to the area, visiting from out of state, or
looking for a new church to call home, we hope you will sense God’s awesome power and love today.
Pastor Mace & Houmann Farewell Potluck: Today, please come and fellowship one last time with our beloved pastor and his wife, and with our
special friends, the Houmanns. This will be your opportunity to say goodby and give a farewell hug!
Vespers Service: Tonight, at 6:30 pm, there will be a vespers service in
the Sanctuary. We will have music from guitarists, violinists, pianists, vocalists and more! At the end of the service, a love offering will be accepted in support of the youth who are going to Panama on a summer mission
trip. Immediately following the service, Family Fun Night will be serving
bubble tea, smoothies and other snacks while hosting games and activities
for all ages. It’s sure to be a real blessing to close our Sabbath together!
Yard Work: Join us tomorrow morning, from 9am to noon, and help clean
up the church and school yard! We will be pulling weeds, edging the
mulched areas around trees and bushes, trimming bushes, etc. Please
bring appropriate yard tools if you can. We’ll need buckets, hoes, rakes,
hedge clippers, etc. Some tools will be provided. If you have a motor driven hedge clipper that would be very helpful. FMI, call Don Wilkens 301-639
-2420. Rain date: May 3.
Vacation Bible School: God made two great lights… the lesser light to
govern the night. We are over the moon with excitement about the upcoming summer adventure. VBS this year is June 22-27 from 6:30-8:45
pm. Sign up online now or at the Welcome Desk.
“Together in Prayer”: Join us Wednesdays, in the Sanctuary from 6:30 7:30 pm. This is a one-hour gathering of believers purposed to share their
faith in the blessings God has promised in 2 Chronicles 7: 14. We will be
attentive to prayer in our dedicated hour of being together, and enjoy His
presence. Please plan to meet with Prayer Warrior, Kunle Ogundeyi, and
other prayer leaders.
Dinner Every Wednesday Night: Now through May 27, from 5:30 pm-6:30
pm (prior to prayer meeting, Adventurer club, and Pathfinder club) in the
multipurpose room, you can enjoy a simple, but delicious meal for a very
reasonable price. Your purchases will benefit either the Adventurer Club or
the Panama mission trip group. Hope to see you there! FMI: Sue
Boughner 301-639-5634 or [email protected]

process. Thank you for your patience.
