		<title>Mind Your Own Buisness :: COST is a Factor :: 11.1.09</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At RUMC we find ourselves in the middle of what many would consider an uncomfortable situation.  Our church is in the middle of a campaign – a debt reduction campaign, and it’s also the time of the year when we’re all asked to make a commitment regarding our stewardship for the year – how we will [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=watersedgeringgold.wordpress.com&blog=3190036&post=333&subd=watersedgeringgold&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Vision Sunday :: 10.18.09</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our church is entering a season focussed on stewardship.  It&#8217;s that time of year for our yearly stewardship campaign, and we&#8217;re also working on a Debt Reduction Campaign as we seek to work down the money owed for our new building.  Not the easiest of topics for many people.  So this Sunday we kicked-off by instilling some [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=watersedgeringgold.wordpress.com&blog=3190036&post=327&subd=watersedgeringgold&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

In the center of the room a baptismal pool and a bowl of river stones.

		<title>2009 Blessing of the Animals</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sunday night was fun!  This is our second year to celebrate and thank God for the very special love between us and our pets during The Water&#8217;s Edge.  Oct 4 was the Feast Day of St. Francis which is traditionally when this service takes place.  It was messy and beautiful and real.
We had The Neel [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=watersedgeringgold.wordpress.com&blog=3190036&post=317&subd=watersedgeringgold&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was the last night of this series!!  We&#8217;re in the middle of a monsoon, so there was a small crowd, but God was good and held the rain back for a couple hours right before, during &#38; after the service, so we could do what He and I had planned for the night!

		<description><![CDATA[Great and messy night at The Water&#8217;s Edge last night! 
Our topic for getting fit in: Relational health.  When everyone got into the room, the floor was open with chairs only around the edges of the room.  We started with our normal announcements, watched the intro video for the week (Andrew&#8217;s attempts at training for Mr [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=watersedgeringgold.wordpress.com&blog=3190036&post=312&subd=watersedgeringgold&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We took our church to the park this last Sunday night &#8211; right down the street from the church.  We grilled out hotdogs and fed anyone who was hungry that happened to be in the park that night.  Due to looming bad weather, we didn&#8217;t set the whole band up this time, but we did [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=watersedgeringgold.wordpress.com&blog=3190036&post=310&subd=watersedgeringgold&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Fit For Life :: Covenant Health :: 8.30.9</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We’re on our third week of getting Fit for Life!
Our series is rooted in 1 Timothy 4:7-8 (TNIV) Which tells us to &#8220;train ourselves to be godly. For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.&#8221;
So we are [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=watersedgeringgold.wordpress.com&blog=3190036&post=307&subd=watersedgeringgold&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
