Next Steps For A New Year
As summer ends and we begin a new ministry year together, I want to invite you to take a next step in this new year. What is the next step for you? Perhaps it’s one of the following:
1. Baptism. If you have placed your faith in Jesus but have not yet been baptized, then that would be the next step for you! Email baptism@ingleside.org to let us know you are interested in being baptized and to get that conversation started.
2. Membership. If you have been attending Ingleside but have not yet become a member, I want to invite you to the membership class this Sunday, August 17, at 4:00 p.m. in F-300. You will learn a lot about our church, you will have a chance to ask questions, and you will have the opportunity to become a member at the end of the class.
3. Join a Group. We want everyone who is part of Ingleside to be part of a group. Members of groups know, care for, and encourage one another, and grow in their faith together. You can find options for groups here.
4. Serve. Have you been at Ingleside for a while but haven’t found your place of service yet? Find opportunities to serve here or contact one of our ministry leaders. Every member is on mission!
5. Go. Maybe the next step for you is going on a mission trip. I want to invite you to our Missions Orientation this Sunday, August 17, at 4:00 p.m. in the Dining Room. You will learn about missions, how to share the gospel, and what’s involved in going on an Ingleside mission trip. You can learn more about missions at Ingleside here.
I’m excited about whatever your next step is!
Semi-Annual Church Conference
Our Semi-Annual Church Conference will be on Wednesday, August 27, at 7:45 p.m. in F-300. We will vote on the budget, Overseer nominees, and Deacon nominees. Click here to see the budget and nominees. We will have a time for Q&A, and I will do my best to answer any questions you have about anything Ingleside-related.
I am thankful for healthy processes for approving the budget and selecting Overseers and Deacons. I hope to see you there for this important part of the process!
With the affection of Christ,
