1. This Sunday - If you've seen the movie, Shawshank Redemption, perhaps you remember that great scene where Andy Dufresne tells his friend Red that in life, there come moments when it's time to "get busy living, or get busy dying." As he sets out for a momental decision in his own life, it seems that his point is that there come times when we need to choose to move on to more important and meaningful things. We can sit and wallow, or we can choose to move onward. In our main passage for this week, Paul writes of infancy in Christ, telling the Corinthians that they need to wean themselves off "milk" to be able to live as spiritual people who need "meat." As you prepare for worship this week, ask yourself: "What can I do to move from infancy in Christ to a more meaningful and lasting spiritual person?" As always, it will be good to read our passages for the week here.
Sarah will be introducing a new song called Walk By Faith, by Jeremy Camp. Have a listen to become familiar with it.
We will also gather around the table of communion on Sunday night for our monthly Remembrance (come at 6:00 PM). We will continue our theme from the morning of deciding to go deeper in depth with Christ. We'll also look briefly at our hopes for the seasons of Lent & Easter this year through Ashes to Fire.
Lastly, please note that there is no Sunday School or worship gathering in Hingham next Sunday, 2/20. (See #3 below for more info.)
2. North Street Community Discernment of God's Mission - For all the info on the discernment journey, click here. If you have not yet worked on a survey, please contact Pastor Jeremy. If you have completed the survey, please sign up for a discussion group. See the website to see the dates & times for the groups, and email Pastor Jeremy to request a discussion group date.
3. North Street Community Retreat at Windsor Hills Campground - It's next weekend! We leave one week from today. If you have yet to sign up to go and are planning it, we need to know. There will be no worship gathering in Hingham on the Sunday of the Retreat as our church community will be worshiping on the campground that morning. All are welcome (even if you are not coming up for the whole retreat). We'll worship at 10:30 as usual, and follow signs to "The Inn." Rev. Dan Whitney will speak to us that morning. Please plan on staying for lunch (and it would be helpful to know that you're coming so we can let the kitchen know - just email Pastor Jeremy).
5. South Shore Women's Weekend - March 25-27, 2011. Our sisters from South Shore Baptist Church invite any women to come away to be refreshed and strengthened in Christ. Come learn how to live out your faith without fear. Connect with believers who live near you. "Take Courage! It is I! Do not be afraid!" Matthew 14:27 For more information and to register go to Fearless 2011.
