The Latest...


Living Hope Family,

I want to personally say THANK YOU for how you responded this week to helping our young adults go to Passion! Because of your generosity, all the sponsorships needed have been provided. It is true, we are never more like Jesus than when we give, so thank you! Also, what a wonderful baptism celebration we had last Sunday afternoon. 7 more people took their next steps. Praise the Lord for the 80 people that have been baptized since we began 2.5 years ago. This Sunday will be extra special, so be there at 10am and bring someone with you. Until then, read the latest below...

Children's Choir - This coming Sunday morning, our children will be performing and singing for us in the morning worship service, so get there early and get a good seat!

Christmas Eve Service - The Marysville school system has asked us not to have a Christmas service, in order that the custodians could spend that day with their families and not having to work. We desire to respect their wishes and be a good testimony, therefore we will ONLY have a Christmas Eve service from 5-6pm on December 24th and no service on Sunday, December 25th.

Ellinger Family - Please be praying for LH family members Shaun & Beth Ellinger. Earlier this week, Shaun's father suddenly passed away in Logan, Ohio. The funeral was held this morning in Sugar Grove, Ohio.

PCC Baby Calendars - These calendars will be on the welcome table once again this Sunday morning. You may take one home with you by making a donation (any amount) to the PCC. They would make great Christmas gifts and serve as a reminder to pray for the PCC and the children. By God's grace, five of the babies pictured are rescued from abortion!

Ladies Christmas Party - The Ladies of Living Hope will have their annual Christmas Party on Monday evening, December 19th at 7p.m. It will be at the home of Kim Armstrong (679 Gallop Ln.) Please bring an appetizer or dessert to share. It will be an evening of food, fun, and fellowship and we hope you can make it!

Passion 2012 - Living Hope is taking college students and young adults (18-25) to Passion 2012 this January 1st - 6th. Passion 2012 is a conference in Atlanta, Georgia where thousands of college and young adults meet in the Georgia Dome to worship Jesus. If you are interested in going please contact Pastor Adam: adam@livinghopemarysville.com. The cost to sign up is $219. You will need $50 extra for food and traveling.
