Update from Good Shepherd (August 26, 2021)

Greetings!

SUMMER SCHEDULE
Divine Services are at 10:00 AM on Sundays, in person and on Facebook Live. Share our services and invite friends to tune in.

Sunday School and Adult Bible Class will resume on Sunday, September 12 at 8:45 AM. 
          Our Adult Bible Class will study the book of Daniel.  The tentative schedule can be found here.
          Bible Matters, a discussion group, will resume on Wednesday, September 15 at 7:00 PM.  The schedule of discussion topics can be found here.
          A Bible Information Class, which covers the basics of the Bible, will begin on Monday, September 13, 7:00-8:30 PM.  The schedule will be published soon.

CHURCH PICNIC
          Good Shepherd's Church Picnic will round out the kick off Sunday (September 12) for Sunday School and Adult Bible Class.  Shortly after church, we will start grilling the meat for our meal.  Attendees will be asked to bring salads, side dishes, and desserts.  Beverages will be provided by the church.  The meal will be served around 11:30 AM or so.  A Sign-Up Genius form will be sent out soon, assuring that we will have a variety of extras.  

GOOD SHEPHERD 40TH ANNIVERSARY BOOK
         A pictorial retrospective of Good Shepherd has been produced and is at church. You are welcome to look through it. While there are many photos, there is also a lot of information about the history of the congregation. So, if you look at it, you will probably not be able to read through all the articles. The copy at church will be placed in Good Shepherd’s library, but you may want your own copy. We will contact Shutterfly to see what kind of discounted rate we can get for a bulk order. (Without discounts, the books runs well over $100.) We will see how many are interested in a copy, understanding that you may change your mind if the cost ends up being too high.
     NOTE: Orders will be taken in September.

SUMMER OFFICE HOURS
          Between Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, Pastor Schroeder’s office hours will be a bit more sporadic than usual. To ensure his availability, it is best to make an appointment. He will remain available by phone or text (248-719-5218). You may also email (welsnovi@aol.com), but the response may be slower.

GOOD SHEPHERD ON YOUTUBE
         Feel free to share the videos.  For other services, do a search for "Good Shepherd Novi."  The service from Sunday, August 22 is here: (12) Good Shepherd Novi, Divine Service, August 22, 2021 - YouTube
