2012 Livingston County Christmas Celebration

The Annual Christmas Celebration is a day for our local families in need of
assistance to experience the loving embrace of our local churches. The celebration is a fun-filled afternoon for these families with many activities. This year will be the third year Hartland UMC has been blessed to participate in this event. What you will give is a little of your time and talents, but what you will receive is a day and a holiday season filled with joy and hope.

This is a wonderful and fulfilling opportunity to bring God’s Kingdom to our neighbors in need during the Christmas season! Please see Sue LaRoy if you have any questions.

1 Timothy 6:18—
”Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.”

Read about our One Year Bible Challenge in Pastor Paul’s blog, “Bucket List for 2013 – Already?”

There are three ways to participate in reading through the Bible in one year.

1. If you have an electronic device (smart phone, ipod, ipad, etc…), you can download a free Bible app called “YouVersion.tv”. Just search for “Bible” and install the free Bible app on your electronic device. Then go to reading plans and choose “The One Year Bible”. This can also be downloaded onto a windows 8 computer, at no cost. Go to www.youversion.com and follow the directions to download to your computer.
2. You can purchase through the Hartland UMC church a physical copy of The One Year Bible. The cost for this will be $11.00 per copy. If you cannot afford to purchase a Bible, just ask as there is scholarship money available for a Bible. This uses the New Living Translation, which is one of the most readable translations of the Bible on the market today.
3. The final way is to simply use your own Bible and we will provide a reading plan that follows The One Year Bible, so we will all be on the same plan. The key will be for you to have a Bible that is easy to read.

We plan to have “drop-in” classes each week to review and discuss the week’s readings – watch for the schedule beginning in January.

Join us on our journey!

January 6 through January 27, Pastor Paul Gruenberg will lead the Adult Class using Kay Arthur’s study, “Lord Teach Me to Study the Bible in 28 Days.” Arthur teaches the inductive Bible study method, which begins with knowing how to mark your Bible in order to really “unlock the meaning” in the scripture. This class will provide the foundation for following studies of specific books in the Bible and increase the scriptural foundation for all of the church’s activities.

The Genesis Adult Fellowship Group will be playing Crazy Bingo on Saturday, January 12th, at the home of Ron and Fran Warthman, 1497 Thorn Ridge, 517-546-4004.

Crazy Bingo works like this: Everyone attending brings a wrapped white elephant prize; when someone bingos, they select a wrapped gift and open it. After all the gifts have been unwrapped, the fun begins. When you bingo from then on, you can take whatever gift you would like!

Those who will becoming are asked to sign up on the bulletin board and to bring a snack to
share. If you have any questions, please see Fran Warthman or Darcie Westbrook.

Starting Saturday, September 7th, we will have a special kick off t our 40 day Purpose Driven Life campaign beginning with Dogs and 3 more D’s. 6:00 p.m. – Hot Dogs, Dips for chips and desert for dinner. 6:30 p.m. – a message from Rich Warren to begin our 40 day journey to understanding our purpose.

Soul Shift

The measure of a life transformed 

Church-wide study beginning February 23

Do you sometimes find it hard to make changes in your life for God? No matter where you are in your spiritual life, you can make shifts to help you continue to transform your life. God continues to help you become the New Creation, but this cannot be done without your participation.

Our Lenten church wide study will follow the book Soul Shift: The measure of a life transformed, by Steve DeNeff and David Drury. Small groups will be formed for deeper study and supporting fellowship as we seek to order our lives after the example of Jesus. If you want to be more like Christ, then you must enter into intentional introspection and seek those shifts in your life which bring about lasting change.

Max Lucado writes, “SoulShift guides believers to a deeper walk with God, reveals the power and richness of the transformed spirit, and show practical ways to move our souls into alignment with our heavenly Father.”

Books will be available.
