Last week in Children's Church, we finished up our series on Honor. I was blessed to hear so many great stories from our kids about ways they honored others throughout this month. From helping out Mom and Dad to serving 30 people pancakes! Encourage each other to continue honoring others even past this month! Dont Forget! This Thursday is our Pre-School Program at 10:00am! :) Hannah

Servant-Minded Volunteer/Volunteers Needed!
We want to update our membership directory. Current contact information for our church family is posted on the bulletin board in the coat room and in the back of sanctuary. Stop by there today and see if your information is correct, and make corrections if needed. If your name isnt in the directory that is posted, please list your contact information on the sheet provided.
There are two areas of service in the church that are in need of a leader. One position is to take responsibility for decorating the church at Christmas and Easter. We all enjoy these special times of the year and your help would bring great joy to all. Also, in order to continue with the tradition of live flowers in the sanctuary during Christmas and Easter, we are in need of a volunteer or volunteers to take responsibility for this ministry. The task includes taking orders, collecting funds and arranging for delivery to the church. The sanctuary always looks lovely with flowers; however, we will not be able to continue if we dont have someone to take on this task. If this sounds like something you would like to do, please contact Julie Stuck at 654-2409 or e-mail at fjstuck@sbcglobl.net as soon as possible.

Core Values...
Values central to the life, mission and vision of Fifth Avenue Church of Christ are: Christ-Centered Worship
We make it a priority every Sunday to celebrate Jesus through our music. (Romans 11:36-12:1-2). We focus on Jesus through gracebased preaching and teaching & understand the Bible is our authority (2 Timothy 3:16).
Global Evangelism
We are constant to our founding call to worldwide evangelism, proclaiming to all that Jesus Christ is the Savior, Healer, and SoonComing King (Acts 20:27).
Discipleship
We do not want you to "get religion" here at Fifth Avenue Church of Christ in Lancaster. We are all about teaching you that Jesus seeks a daily relationship with Him through a life of obedience. In other words, we want to see the things you are taught actually change your lifestyle & your daily decisions.
Social Conscience
We place high value on the sanctity of human life, of Biblical marriage and morality, and we welcome ethnic diversity (Isaiah 56:7; Philippians 2:15-16).
