Church Leadership- Empowering Small Churches to BE The Church

FEBRUARY 7, 2014 BY TAYLORSVILLEUMC

Church Leadership- Empowering Small Churches to BE The Church

http://revsarahdorrance.wordpress.com/2014/02/07/church-leadership-empowering-small-churches-to-be-the-church/

We are at the dawn of a new age which we can no longer ignore. That new age is both exciting and scary at the same time. Church leaders can no longer do “Church the same old way.” We must talk differently, react differently and share differently in order to be relevant in this new age. While we must share differently, the message is still the same, “Jesus Christ, fully God and fully human, came into the world to save sinners like me.” So the Great Commission is still our mandate, but the way we fulfill that mandate has to be different.

Many outside the church believe that church has no relevance in their lives. How can we as the church not only show relevance, but introduce those outside the church to the saving grace of Jesus? Some outside the church might know Jesus already, but if they are outside of the church, then they are missing out on a big part of being followers of Jesus, and that is corporate worship and community.

This blog has been created as a resource for small churches. Small churches still have a huge impact on our communities and STILL can offer something that the large scale churches cannot provide

Nov. 15, 2013: “Off Track Art” is an artists’ collective & gallery located in the historic Liberty Building at 11 Liberty St. – next to the railroad tracks, off of the Sentinel parking lot at the corner of W. Main St & MD 27-Liberty St - in historic downtown Westminster, Md.

The inspiration for forming the co-op was spearheaded by local artists Susan Williamson & Pam Zappardino. Off Track had its grand opening on Feb. 13th, 2009.

For the past 4-yrs, the partners in the co-op have changed; however the artist-partners in the co-op have been dedicated to advancing the arts in Westminster as well as the careers, ideas, and artistic visions of its members.

Power restoration could last into Friday, before weekend snow chance

By Scott Dance, The Baltimore Sun 8:58 p.m. EST, February 5, 2014

http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/weather/weather-blog/bs-md-ice-storm-20140205,0,6070777.story

Baltimore Sun Media Group reporters Carrie Wells, Blair Ames, Sara Toth, Krishana Davis and David Anderson contributed to this article.

Some of the more than 150,000 power outages caused by a thick glaze of ice across the state Wednesday might not be repaired until Friday, utility officials said, prompting leaders in two counties to open shelters at schools that were closed for the day because of slick roads strewn with tree limbs.

Baltimore Gas and Electric Co. officials said the ice was impeding power restoration efforts but they expect to have most customers' electricity back on by Thursday evening. Freezing rain, falling on top of snow and sleet in some areas, laid down a coat of up to a half-inch of ice in parts of Carroll County and a quarter-inch closer to Baltimore.

Gusty winds overnight could cause new outages, and by the time the cleanup is finished, more wintry precipitation is possible. Snow is forecast Saturday and Sunday, though meteorologists said they had low confidence in predictions of how much.

Wednesday's ice damage was frustrating for those weary from a winter that has been snowier than the past two and the coldest in decades.
