MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!
GREAT COMMISSION DAY
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2010

"Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."  Matthew 28:18-20

"All nations" begins here in our own backyard.  This is what Great Commission Day (GCD) is all about!  God is glorified and Christ is honored when we serve our community in love and with kindness.  Once again, our GCD theme is "Be One":  One with Christ, One with Each Other, and One in Ministry to the Whole World. 

Please begin praying now about how God wants you to "Be One."  Watch upcoming bulletins and September's newsletter for an opportunity to sign-up for the ministry team of your choice. Perhaps God is leading you to begin a new ministry.  If you'd like to lead a team to do something new or different this year, or if you wish to lead in an area where you've served before, please contact the church office at 527-3990 or bentonmc@bellsouth.net to let us know.

Plan now to become involved in this year's GCD ~ you're guaranteed to receive a blessing!!
