Update for Monday, January 22nd
Dear Church family and friends,
Well, that was a strange week. Schools started back up after Christmas, only to be closed because of the winter weather. It seemed a little like lockdown again… but without the changes to how we held a Church service! In case the snow and ice did impede travel for you on Sunday – or you were otherwise unable to attend – here is the recording of Pastor Buddy’s sermon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAStHn0yB5w .
This week…
It’s regular YABS on Tuesday at 7pm. You might ask what ‘regular’ YABS is – and the answer is several smaller Young Adult groups all gathering in various locations around Giessen to study God’s Word and share life together. If this sounds like something you’d like to be involved in, don’t hesitate to write to yabs@ibc-giessen.org and ask for more details.
Amos is the subject of Wednesday’s Mid-Week Bible Study – the first session of which takes place this Wednesday (24th). Whether the group splits into men’s and women’s Bible Study groups is dependent on how many people join in the first instance. This time of prayer and learning will take place on Zoom at 7pm.
After their pause in December, we know that the men are chomping at the bit for their next breakfast together. Don’t fret – it takes place this coming Saturday (27th) at 9:30am in the Student Kitchen. Gentlemen, make it your New Year’s Resolution to register, and then attend, this monthly morning feast!
To round off the week, we’ll have our Sunday morning service at the FTH. Please do join us either in-person or online at 11am.
Lastly, we would like to invite you to our Business Meeting which will be held after the service on Sunday 11th February. This invitation goes out to everyone, whether they are a member of the Church or not, however only members are able to vote on any points raised.
Should you be interested in becoming a member of IBC Giessen, please get in contact with either Pastor Buddy or Pastor Johannes, or write to office@ibc-giessen.org. This same e-mail address is the one to use should you require any Zoom links, or if you would like to tell us that you are a gentleman planning on going to the Men’s Breakfast.
Have a blessed week!
