Special Prayer Requests

• Mark and Martha Herzer - Mark is scheduled to have triple bypass surgery on Friday, August 28th. Please pray that the Lord might protect Mark from any illnesses which may interfere with his having surgery on that date. Pray also that the Lord might keep Mark and Martha's minds in perfect peace as they cast their anxieties on God as He cares for them.

• Jeff & Elena Kermah - Praise God that more and more are attending their Sunday morning worship. Pray that the Lord will provide a larger place to meet. Their current place is becoming too cramped and hot (even with fans). Jeff asks specific prayer that he might be able to disciple a certain young man who is in his final year of college.
  

  Continue to pray for Elena and her health as she homeschools the older children.

Catechism Review

Don’t forget to keep up with your Westminster Shorter Catechism (WSC)! We are reviewing Q&A **#62 this week:

Q. 62. What are the reasons annexed to the fourth commandment?

A. The reasons annexed to the fourth commandment are, God’s allowing us six days of the week for our own employments, his challenging a special propriety in the seventh, his own example, and his blessing the sabbath day.

August Hymn Sing

This month we will be meeting at the home of Terry and Patty Carnes (21 Pinewood Ln, Perkasie, PA 18944). Depending on the weather, we may be able to gather outside!

We will be singing out of the Blue Trinity Hymnal or perhaps from one of the handouts we have used in morning worship. If you have a favorite from the handouts, please let us know Sunday so we can make sure to have it available.

Please bring a dessert to share.

Guest Speaker

We are looking forward to having Teaching Elder Michael Nowling fill our pulpit while our pastor recovers from surgery. Many of you will remember Michael as he has filled in for Pastor Mark several times before.

Michael is a bivocational missionary serving with Church Without Walls alongside Anees Zaka. After studying pharmaceutics at Purdue University, Michael served with the Navigators at the University of Arkansas. Moving to southeastern Pennsylvania to attend Westminster Seminary, he met his wife Sarah, a Harleysville native. He and Sarah have three daughters, Naomi, Claire, and Julia. In his free time, Michael enjoys spending time with his family and reading.

We look forward to Michael being with us over the next several weeks!
