All Explore the Bible teachers for LJGs should plan to meet in room 310 at 5pm on Sunday, November 21 for our Quarterly Teachers Meeting. Next quarter's lessons will cover 1 & 2 Kings. We'll focus on the background of these two books and give some suggested teaching approaches.
Three Matters of Prayer: 1) Thanksgiving: Take a few minutes and thank God for His blessings. Every good and perfect gift is from above. Let Thanksgiving be a good reminder of how God takes care of his people. 2) Feeding of the 5, 000: Ask that God's love will be evident in our community. Our desire is that when people leave our campus they say, "Isn't God good!" 3) Christmas Spectacular: Pray for our choir and musicians as they prepare. Also, pray that we will all use this event to build bridges and that the gospel message will be clear.
"The Art of Marriage": Mark your calendar for February 11-12, 2011. Lawndale will be hosting "The Art of Marriage," a conference sponsored by Family Life (Dennis Rainey). Many of the principles taught in "The Weekend to Remember" will be shared during the conference.

The Candlelight Coffee - At Home Version: Wouldn't it be fun to invite a group of women to your home for a special holiday coffee or tea and dessert?

You can pick any day or time during November or December and we'll post the picture of your table on our website! The instructions for "The Home Edition" are in the Leader on the website or printed at the Welcome Desk.
