Notices for Sunday, September 17, 2017

GREETINGS AND FELICITATION

    1. All glory, honour and praises to God for His faithfulness and goodness that have hitherto preserved all of us. We welcome all our parishioners and other worshippers at this service. God will surround all of us with His presence and favour, and also steadily and with Divine speed fulfill His purposes in our lives and families in Jesus name.
    2. We welcome all our eminent guests (first timers) very specially and pray that God will orchestrate unusual testimonies in their lives and families in Jesus name. We appeal to them to fill the form given to them and to also wait briefly to see the ‘WELCOME TEAM” after this service. They are also enjoined to each take a copy of our bulletin for reference.
    3. Congratulatory felicitations to all the birthday celebrants of the week. We also congratulate all those who are having their wedding anniversaries this week. We wish them all longevity, robust health, sustained joy, divine peace and accomplishment in Jesus name.
  1. ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP DUE:  Please note that our annual membership due is now minimum of N2,000= for each member. We appeal that we all register to become full members of our parish, and pay our dues promptly.
  2. APPRECIATION – RE: 2017 CHILDREN & YOUNG PEOPLE’S HARVEST:  All glory, honour and adoration unto our Lord and Saviour, for last Sunday’s Harvest Thanksgiving and Love Feast. We appreciate our Chairman and his wife, Air Commodre & Mrs. Olufemi Olutoye (rtd), the Cake Unveiler, Mr. Ikemefuna Chidolue, all our Children & Youths Special Launchers, their families, all other supporters both within and outside, and members of the congregation that contributed in one way or the other towards the sucess of the event. May God continue to shower His blessings on you all.
  3. ECCLESIASTES 5: 4-6: when you make a vow to God, do not delay fulfilling it; for he has no  pleasure in fools.  Fulfil what you vow.  It is better that you should not vow than that you should vow and not fulfil it.  Do not let your mouth lead you into sin, and do not say before the messenger that it was a mistake; why should God be angry at your words, and destroy the work of your hands?

  5. DRESSING OF BRIDES AND OTHER MEMBERS OF THE BRIDAL TRAIN DURING WEDDING SERVICES: We use this medium to appeal to all parents and guardians whose children (daughters or daughters-in-law) will be getting married to teach them the dignity of decent dressing, especially during wedding services. By decent dressing, we mean that the wedding gowns and other wedding dresses should cover the entire body. Any indecent dressings during such occa-sions will be frowned at and the clergy will not take kindly to it. This is a very important notice that must be taken seriously by all our parishioners  and other worshippers because we will not compromise the Word of God for any reason.
