~ From The Consistory ~
Visitors, welcome. We hope you are blessed through worshiping with us
today. Our host family has prepared a meal to share and to visit with you in
their home. In the narthex, after the service, the hosts will introduce
themselves and invite you.
 Today and next Sunday, Rev. Maurice Roberts will conduct our worship
services.
 Next Sunday morning, Rev. Roberts will preach a preparatory message.
 Pastor Bilkes and Jane will be in Chilliwack, BC until September 9.
 Allendale Outreach Services - 3:00 PM at St. John’s Lutheran, 9628
th
48 Ave. Brian Najapfour will lead the service today.
 As our young men and women return to college in the coming weeks,
the consistory and congregation commend you students to the Lord and
His mercy. It is our prayer that you may be kept safe and you receive a
sound education necessary to prepare you for your life ahead, but most of
all that the Lord may keep you in the hollow of His hand and from sin
which is so prevalent in the institutions of higher education.
 We are putting together the church calendar for the 2010-2011 year. We
ask that a designated member of each society, club etc. submit the
events/meetings that are scheduled between Sept. 1, 2010 and June 30,
2011. Please submit these schedules to Julie La Rocque by August 25.
August 26 - 28
The second annual Puritan Reformed Conference is just weeks away. If you
have not registered, you will want to soon! The low price for early
registration is only good through August 14. College and seminary student
registrations are heavily discounted. If you are only able to attend Thursday
and Friday evenings, you would just pay for those sessions.
There will be thousands of Christian book titles on hand, many at deeply
discounted prices, available from Reformation Heritage Books, Grace &
Truth Books, and Credo Books.
As a Reformed Christian who wants to grow in the grace and truth of the
Lord Jesus Christ, you will not want to miss this conference. For more
information, please contact Chris Hanna at 616-977-0599 ext: 138, or visit
us on the web at www.puritanseminary.org.
 We are putting together a welcome packet for seminary students who
are new to the Grand Rapids community. We are looking for people who
would be willing to put their name and phone number on a list of possible
babysitters, haircutters/stylists, shopping assistants etc. If you would like
to be on this contact list please email Melissa Bleeker at
melissa_bleeker@yahoo.com Thank-you!
 We are desperately in need of storage space (extra garage stall, barn or
storage shed) to store furniture for seminary students. If you have space
available, please contact Arleen Boven at 363-8734.
