LOVING CHILDREN—“Let the little children come to Me, and don't stop

General Announcements OUR CURRENT SERIES: What should ministry look like? During the next
year we’ll take a Biblical tour of our 12 church “Ministry Values” one month at
a time—our journey will help us discover “who” we are; and, “why” we do
what we do! During October—we’ll focus on this: “That Our Community Of
Believers Mature As Disciples Of Christ In Personal Spiritual Development.”
“THE CONTINGENCY OF YOUR HAPPINESS” is the title of today’s
message. Pastor Terry’s text will be Psalm 1. It seems like most of Jesus’
disciples live by an unexpressed belief that, in gaining Christ, they’ve given up
“happiness.” Oh, they’ll have eternal “joy”; but, you can kiss happiness
goodbye when you’re born again! This Psalm will rock that pre-conceived notion!
CHURCH APP & ONLINE GIVING—Add our “church app” to your
smart phone by searching “Morningside Bible Church”; and, set yourself up to
give online! You can also give online through our website—
www.morningsidebiblechurch.org. It’s safe! It’s secure! And, it offers you an
opportunity to be obedient to God’s command to support, financially, the
local church ministry!
THE MORNINGSIDE BIBLE STUDY LIBRARY is huge, it’s FREE and
it’s all online! Over 14,000 Discipleship videos for your entire family—kids,
youth, marriage, etc. Just contact the church office at
[email protected] and request your RightNow Media
invitation! Once you’ve received it, just register for your FREE account & get started

SERMON CD MINISTRY—Having a hard time getting someone out to
church? Why not pass along a CD of a sermon that God used in your life?
They’re FREE, FREE, FREE! You’ll find single sermons & complete series @ the
Welcome Desk!
OPEN HOUSE—Saturday Afternoon, October 22, in the church foyer, to
help celebrate Dr. Martin Mosier’s 80th birthday & Bruce Mosier’s 70th
birthday! Dr. Mosier actually served as pastor of our church (then known as
Billy Sunday Memorial Tabernacle) from about 1960-1975. Everyone is
welcome! For more info see Mike Ewoldt @ the Welcome Desk!
SMALL GROUP “BON FIRES”—Did you know there was a “fire pit” @
the Church parsonage? And, you are welcome to use it! All of our Small
Groups are invited to schedule a “bon fire”, through the Embke’s, should you
like to promote such an activity with your group! There is plenty of wood
already on site! Please e-mail your request to Pastor Terry at

Ministry Values: The Elders have determined, after much prayer and searching of the Scrip-
tures, that the following are our “Ministry Values”:
That Our Community of Believers… 1. Live each day in a way that brings glory to God. 2. Love God wholeheartedly; worshipping him daily in spirit,
truth and humility.
3. Love others selflessly; assuming responsibility to deal with personal sin, resolve conflict, and restore wounded relationships.
4. Reads, studies, and memorizes the Word of God regularly.
5. Witness faithfully in word and deed as the Spirit of God
leads. 6. Mature as disciples of Christ in personal spiritual develop-
ment. 7. Pursue fruitfulness in ministry utilizing spiritual gifts,
training, oversight & support. 8. Serve widows, orphans and others; meeting their physical
and spiritual needs. 9. Spur each other toward spiritual growth including active
small group participation & accountability. 10. Equip and support each other in building healthy marriag-
es and training up children of Godly character. 11. Pray without ceasing. 12. Live generous lives as faithful stewards of God's resources.
