SYMPATHY
The Pastor and church family at Good Hope express our sympathy and love to the Arlene Hardee. “Blessed be to the God of all comfort, who comforts us in our tribulations.” 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
SUNDAY NIGHT FELLOWSHIP Tonight there will be a time of fellowship after the evening service. Plan to stay and enjoy some fun, food, and watch the game. Please bring finger foods, chips & dips, desserts, drinks, etc.
STRESS GETTING TO YOU?
Is stress making you frustrated and irritable? Stress relievers can help restore calm and serenity to your chaotic life. In a recent study, the Mayo Clinic found that worship helps to relive stress by improving your mood and helping the irritations fade away. When you're stressed and irritable, your instinct may be to wrap yourself in a cocoon. But worshipping is a good stress reliever because it offers distraction, provides support, and helps you tolerate life's up and downs. So don’t avoid worship!

On Sundays at 11:00am the Pastor is preaching on “REDUCING THE STRESS IN YOUR LIFE.”
February 1st – “How to Defeat Depression”
February 8th – “A Focus on the Family”
February 15th – “Move from Tragedy to Triumph”
February 22nd – “The Detours of Your Life”

SUNDAY SCHOOL TOPICS THIS MONTH
  February 8th    “Ready When Sex Destroys.”
  February 15th  “Ready When Homosexuality Devastates.”
  February 22nd “Ready When Pornography Controls.”

NOTE:  We cannot insulate ourselves from the messiness of a culture that’s
far from God. Attend your class each week and find the help you need to be informed and sensitive to the struggles and addictions that are all around us.
A proper perspective will equip us to be ready to minister to those who are hurting and point them to a loving God

SPIRITUAL GIFTS
Spiritual gifts are the source of much controversy and confusion today. The
gifts are meant to be graces from God for the edification of the church. The
misuse and misunderstanding of spiritual gifts bring division--splitting up,
rather than building up--in the church. On Sundays at 6:00pm come and
explore what the Bible says about spiritual gifts and discover your gift.
