WELCOME:
   We would like to welcome you to The Lighthouse Church this morning.  You are not here by accident– you are here by a divine appointment.  If this is your first time here, please fill out a visitor card so that we will have a a record of your visit with us.   Our prayer is that you feel welcomed and that the presence of the Holy Spirit will minister to your needs as your worship with us.

From the Word:
   What will you do on the day of your appointed feasts, on the festival days of the LORD? ~Hosea 9:5  HCSB

A Special Note to Parents
Today, we begin meeting at the YMCA and we wil have to have your help in some things dealing with you children.  We have noticed that there is a lot of activity with the kids before, during and after our service.  We understand that kids are energetic and love to have fun, and at TLC, we love your children!  It is important that you know where your children are at all times.  We would ask that you would have them sit with you or someone  that has agreed to wach them during the service.  If your child needs to go out during the service, please make sure that an adult is with them.  As we meet at the YMCA there are many machines that are very expensive and we cannot have the kids roaming free.  It is a safety issue as well as a protection for you and your children.  Please know that we love your kids and love seeing so many of them here at TLC and we want them to understand that church is a fun place to be.  Don’t forget that Bible Club bags are available at the entrance to the gym to help keep your children’s attention.  Please help us with this issue as we grow together as a family.

Review:

• A. Last week we looked at the Feast of Weeks or Pentecost
• B. We looked at how it was celebrated in ancient times as well as how it is celebrated today. 
            1.  We saw it was a time of harvest and a time to study the revelation of God to man
            2.  We looked at how it was celebrated after the ascension of Christ and how this impacted the Church
• C.  We saw how all of this applies to us today
           1.  Three levels of understanding Pentecost
                 a.  God’s abundant provision
                       -All things are because of God
                 b.  God’s abundant revelation
                       -God reveals Himself to us so that we can have relationship with Him through Jesus Christ
                 c.  God’s abundant power
                       -God gives us His power for living through the Holy Spirit in us
