To my Grove family,

Weekend Message

You will not want to miss this weekend as our Grove men who have just returned from Guadalajara will be sharing in the service in both song and testimony. I have heard that Kenny Hughes is going to give his personal testimony and I can guarantee you that will be something you will want to hear. I am going to close the service with a 10-minute challenge from one of my favorite chapters in the Bible, Matthew 14. Please read it to be ready for this weekend.

Pictorial Directory

It’s time to take your picture for The Grove! We are in the middle of signups for our 2011 pictorial directory and it will not be complete without you. This is one of the great tools we have to make sure we know the names of everyone. I can tell you I have used our old directory hundreds if not thousands of times as almost daily I am trying to put a face with a name I hear. It is the reason I know by name almost all of the folks in the old directory. I have heard countless people tell me the very same thing. Please take a moment right now and sign up to have your picture taken – it is simple. Go to www.signup.olanmills.com and then click on “Make a New Appointment.” In the left column you need to put the church’s phone number (951) 571-9090 and then fill in your information. After the information is filled in “saving” it will take you to the dates and times the photography will be taking place (you’ll need to look for RED dates in March and April). Just sign up for an available slot that fits your schedule. Thanks so much for taking time to do this; we really do appreciate it!

Member Voting and Annual Business Meeting

This weekend we need all official Grove members to vote to ratify board members Craig Merrihew and Bill Hanks (four-year terms); ratify treasurer Kevin O’Neill (one-year term); and confirm Tom Lance as Senior Pastor for another five years. It is important that everyone votes so please take time after the service to do so. We will be having our Annual Business Meeting on March 6 at 5 p.m. in Room C-200.
