Happy September! Such beautiful weather. “Today is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice in it!”
John Grant continues to monitor our attendance which gives us a picture of our growth patterns. These are the numbers from this past Sunday:
- 79 people in the pews
- 4 service leaders
- 13 choir members
- 3 children in the nursery
- 7 children in the youth class, total 108.
- 93.4 is our average attendance after 17 weeks.
We temporarily lost our broadcast connection again this past week but Al Kaburick was able to get us back online. We are in the process of fixing this problem. We have purchased a dedicated camera, thank you Jennifer and Al, but we are still in process of getting that set up and figuring out the reason of why we are losing connection.
This Sunday will be a communion Sunday.
From Tammy Smart at church regarding the CPR/AED training:
The fee for the course is as follows: For 10 people the course will be $300. $200 for instructor and $100 for the cards received. I am asking all participants to see me with their fee of $30 no later than Sunday, September 28th. The City of Edwardsville will bill ESIC Baptist Church for the course.
The tentative dates for the course are September 30th, October 7th or October 14th.Cole has a request out to his instructors once I hear back from him, I will let you know what date has been selected.
One other change is that the course (still a private course) will be held at the Edwardsville Fire Department. It would have been an additional fee for all the equipment to be packed up and brought to the church. If you have any questions, please let me know. Tammy
See you all on Sunday! Love, pastor kent
