Tim's Thoughts - By Pastor Tim Binns

December can be one of the busiest times of the year for families.  So many gatherings, events, as well as shopping, crowd our schedules.  We can get so involved in the Christmas season that we forget what the meaning is all about.  It is all about the coming of our Savior Jesus.  So as your life gets hectic this month, remember to put a priority on worshiping the One whose birth we celebrate.
 
Transitional Notes:
We have an online survey that we really need as many people to complete as possible.  This will help us get a better picture of our church.  The survey can be found at http://tc.lifeway.com.  The passcode for our church is xeescybfgk.  If you cannot complete this online, we are researching some options including setting up a few computer stations at the church for you to complete the survey on a Sunday morning. 

Solemn Assembly

In the Old Testament, a solemn assembly would be called for God’s people to get back on track with God.  It was time to return to God for His forgiveness, mercy or special direction.  I believe as we move in the transitional process it is time for us to repent and focus on God to show His direction as we continue in the process and before we can consider forming a pastor search committee.  We will be having a special Solemn Assembly prayer service on January 7th at 6:30 PM.  We need as many of our church membership to be involved in this service.  It will be for youth on up.  Please plan to attend. 
 
My family and I want to wish you a Merry Christmas!
 
Brother Tim
