Marlboro Bulletin: Aug. 16, 2025

Meditation – “Our world does not need to hear more people talk about God or even about Jesus if those people do not have a lifestyle that reinforces every word they utter. The interesting thing is that the closer we walk in intimacy with God, the less we have to say.” – Dennis Kinlaw

Announcements

We need your help! Can you spend a few minutes helping with some deep cleaning of the church? The sign-up list is in the vestibule. Consider what you are able to help with,

record your name, clean that area (most supplies are here at church, but feel free to use your own), and check off when you've completed the task. The goal is to have the list all finished by mid or end of August. Thank you in advance!

Save the date and spread the word! Community Yard Sale is set for August 31, 2025 from 7am - 1pm. Contact Yvonne about a seller's spot for $10.

Can you donate a dozen or so cookies or brownies for the Bake Table at the Yard Sale? Let Joanna or Yvonne what you'd like to contribute. (Hick's Beef will be here this year

and our church will only be doing beverages and bake sale items.)

If you are interested in becoming a member of the Marlboro SDB Church, please contact Pastor Tom.
