A reception will immediately follow the service sponsored by the Anglican Global Mission Partners. Take the stress out the the ride in afternoon traffic in Atlanta as you travel with us by Tystanic Bus to the Investiture at the Church of the Apostles.

3 Fall God and Country Community Prayer Service To Be Held on October 26 th! Ruthie Garner, known to most as a producer and television host for WALB, has graciously agreed to be the keynote speaker. As a cancer survivor, Ruthie has a deep belief in the power of prayer. The service will be held at Lenny s Market at 3:00 PM with music by Joyful Noise. Just days prior to the election, the service will be focused on our community, state and nation. Never has prayer been so needed for this country! The best advertising is by word of mouth so get the news out! Invite all you meet to join us for this important time of prayer. Held annually on the first Sunday in October in downtown Americus on the sidewalks next to SB&T from 2:30 to 3:30. The purpose of the event is to pray and stand for the sanctity of life. We at St. John s join Central Baptist and the event s sponsor, the Crisis Pregnancy Center, in the belief that life begins at conception and every child has a righ to live. This is a peaceful and non-confrontational way to take a stand for Jesus Christ. Put on your St. John s tee shirt and bring a chair to SB&T on Sunday, October 5 th at 2:30 to pray and stand up for Life in Christ.

The goal of the conference is to prepare men for the Church in the 21 st Century. Applications can be picked up at the St. John s office.
4 SEPTEMBER Reflecting On the Word Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division; 52 for henceforth in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three; 53 they will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against her mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. Luke 12: st Amy Becton 4 th Tam Olinger 6 th Sally Taylor 8 th Kathy Barry 16 th Ellison Olinger 19 th Terry Goodrum 24 th Brooke Olinger 30 th John Davidson No anniversaries this month. Early in my business career I was on brand teams within our company s marketing department. Very often the efforts of the marketing department were to put new packaging on a dying brand without improving the product. My task, as a representative of the sales department, was to insist that the products efficacy be enhanced giving us a story to tell and simultaneously build the brand. I can t tell you how many viable brands I witnessed die a slow and painful death because of the unwillingness of the company to take a risk and invest energy, capital and reputation to save the product. Today we see and lament as churches die in their witness. Primarily, they find themselves in the death knell because they have refused to invest their hearts, time and reputation to stand for and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Instead, like the products above, they are filled with cultural Christians who are more like the world than the Body of Christ and refuse to let the Holy Spirit change the effectiveness of their lives. As I reflect on the past three years and the journey we have been on together at St. John s, there is much reason to give glory and thanksgiving to God. We are a loving and caring community. We have been blessed by God. Most of our congregation migrated from a church where the most important features of the community were a beautiful building, having fun and being like society. Those who left for St. John s have been divided by Jesus Christ that His story might be told in word, action and obedience. The community is watching and they want to know: 1) Do we really believe what we profess. 2) Do we really live what we profess? 3) Does standing for Christ really make a difference in our lives? 4) Can Jesus Christ really change the world? It is time for us to truly recognize what Christ has done at St. John s and examine if our lives and ministry answers these four questions in a resoundingly positive manner. Led by the Holy Spirit we must give ourselves to live as a church differently in mission and action than all the others in town. We must accept being different, no, we must embrace it! Because Jesus is counting on us to not just have a beautiful package; instead He insists we be a new and improved witness of His love and salvation for Americus. With love in Christ, Don+ We are far too easily pleased. God wants better things for us. He finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. C.S. Lewis
