This Week's Thoughts
Thoughts from Pastor Holloman
I find it fascinating that often the same story is told at different points in Scripture. In the Old Testament, a lot of the stories found in First and Second Chronicles is also found in other parts of the old Testament. In Paul’s letters, he recounts stories that are also found in Acts. And even Luke, the author of the Gospel and the Book of Acts tells the story of Christ’s ascension into heaven twice. He closes the Gospel with this story and he opens the Book of Acts with this story. It is done kind of Rocky 1 and 2. Rocky 2 opens up with the ending of Rocky 1.

Calling For People to Pray
The Administrative Team has proposed a request to the congregation of Celebration UMC that prior to each Sunday's Worship Service, 2 or 3 individuals gather with the pastor and pray for the congregation, the elements of the service and for Pastor Harry as he brings God's message. We would meet for this brief time of prayer in classroom #2 @9:10AM; and in classroom #1 @10:50AM.
The purpose of this prayer time is to ask God to bless the worship service, our congregation and center Pastor Harry in God's presence as he brings the Word. Scripture tells us "for where two or more are gathered, there I am in your midst." ( Matthew 18:20) If you feel led or called to join this prayer group opportunity, please email or call the church office: office@celebrationgnv.org or 367-8005, or email Deb Ringdahl: edringdahl@cox.net or 231-4520 and become a part of the group.
We will establish a rotating schedule for this Sunday Service Prayer Group it will not be an every Sunday commitment for any one person.
Prayerfully consider your participation in this new opportunity to serve you church, staff and pastor. – Thank you. The Administrative Team

Missions
Homeless Veteran Program The good news is we received extremely generous donations of furniture, clothing and household items helping numerous veterans and their families; the bad news is this mission has large needs and time commitments Unfortunately, we are unable to keep up with the demands. Therefore, we hope to continue support of the Veteran's Program with our "Welcome Home" baskets containing cleaning and personal hygiene items and will continue to collect donations. If you have furniture, clothes, or other household items we will assist with contact information for The HONOR Center. Thank you all for your generosity and willingness to support our veterans in need. The veteran donation basket will remain in the narthex for deposit of "welcome basket" items.
Archer Elementary We will be participating in the Archer Elementary Back to School Carnival this year and will be collecting school items, for students and the classrooms. A wish list is located in the narthex.
Shands Radiation Oncology is in need of volunteers to greet patients, to escort patients and to provide various administrative duties. Volunteers must complete an application, provide proof of immunizations and be cleared by Occupational Health and an online orientation quiz. The volunteer shifts are 3-hours. If you are interested or have questions, please contact Sue Davis.
Sunday Service Scripture Readers You are needed! If interested in reading scripture during the 9:30 or 11:00 am church service, please sign up in the designated area at the back of church. You will be emailed the scripture prior to Sunday to allow your review. Our youth are also encouraged to sign up.
