FROM THE PROLIFIC DIANA F.:

WORSHIP + 1
Do you attend Worship regularly? Are you part of another ministry at St. Andrew’s? If so, then you are already doing Worship + 1. But, for those of you who are not, you are being challenged to do so. This is a way to help you become engaged in the life of St. Andrew’s.

MINISTRY FAIR
Not sure what is available for you to meet the Worship + 1 challenge? Attend the Ministry Fair on Sun., Feb. 3rd , or check out the Connection Point on Sunday mornings in the Rotunda, to see what the possibilities are for you. You can become part of a small group for study, service, support or fellowship. Some examples are: Disciple Bible Study, short-term studies, volleyball or softball, dining out groups, newsletter and bulletin prep, DivorceCare, DivorceCare for Kids, or GriefShare. The possibilities are endless.

Do you have an idea for a new ministry at St. Andrew’s? We are always open to hearing your ideas, and helping them become a reality. Just let Diana know your thoughts.

WOMEN OF FAITH CONFERENCE
The Women of Faith Conference comes to Omaha on the evening of March 28th and all day on the 29th. Tickets for St. Andrew’s have been ordered, and there are three still available at $65 each. There are also two boxed lunch tickets available at $8 each. If you are interested in going, contact Diana. First come, first served! Relax! Join us and learn why you can stop trying so hard. Come and see what it can mean to rest in God’s amazing, unequaled, Infinite Grace!

Acts 9:17-21
So Ananias went and entered the house. He laid his hands on Saul and said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on your way here, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit. And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and his sight was restored. Then he got up and was baptized, and after taking some food, he regained his strength. For several days he was with the disciples in Damascus, and immediately he began to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, saying “He is the Son of God.” All who heard him were amazed and said, “Is this not the man who made havoc in Jerusalem among those who invoked this name? And has he not come here for the purpose of bringing them bound before the chief priests?”
