Charge Conference this past Sunday went well - we heard some great reports on the ministries of the past year, and got a glimpse of the challenges that lie ahead of us for 2006. Special thanks to Rev. Marilyn McGraw, Presiding Elder, to Sheena for all her hard work in preparing the materials, to Sonya for playing "Sent Out in Jesus' Name," and to all of you whose commitment to Highlands UMC strengthens and builds up the the Body of Christ!
The adult Sunday school class on Process Theology continues each Sunday beginning at 8:45 a.m. The books are in - contact the church to learn more.
Worship Committee (as well as Hospitality and Missions, I believe) will meet this Sunday after church. Hope you can make it!
Gospel of Mark had its first rehearsal Tuesday night, but (possibly due to a failure of communication), turnout was lower than expected. Therefore, it's not too late to sign up! We'll continue to read through and assign/select sections of the text to learn each week, so if you're interested, contact Pastor Betty soon to make sure you get some choice in which parts you'll take on. Rehearsals will be each Tuesday at 7:15 p.m. from now until Palm Sunday (April 9), when we present the entire Gospel in worship. Pretty exciting! (Okay, I'm a church geek, I know it.)
Coming next week: On Sunday, January 29, there will be an informational "New Member" meeting for those interested in joining Highlands UMC. All are welcome. For more information, contact - you guessed it! - the church office.
