Our actions should mean the good of others—should help them to build up their characters. For even Christ did not choose his own pleasure, but as it is written: “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.”4?For all those words which were written long ago are meant to teach us today; that when we read in the scriptures of the endurance of men and of all the help that God gave them in those days, we may be encouraged to go on hoping in our own time.5-7?May the God who inspires men to endure, and gives them a Father’s care, give you a mind united towards one another because of your common loyalty to Jesus Christ. And then, as one man, you will sing from the heart the praises of God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. So open your hearts to one another as Christ has opened his heart to you, and God will be glorified.

Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee and two other disciples were together, when Simon Peter said, “I’m going fishing.” “All right,” they replied, “we’ll go with you.” So they went out and got into the boat and during the night caught nothing at all. But just as dawn began to break, Jesus stood there on the beach, although the disciples had no idea that it was Jesus.5?“Have you caught anything, lads?” Jesus called out to them. “No,” they replied.6-7a?“Throw the net on the right side of the boat,” said Jesus, “and you’ll have a catch.” So they threw out the net and found that they were now not strong enough to pull it in because it was so full of fish! At this, the disciple that Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!”7b-11?Hearing this, Peter slipped on his clothes, for he had been naked, and plunged into the sea. The other disciples followed in the boat, for they were only about a hundred yards from the shore, dragging in the net full of fish. When they had landed, they saw that a charcoal fire was burning, with a fish placed on it, and some bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring me some of the fish you’ve just caught.” So Simon Peter got into the boat and hauled the net ashore full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three altogether. But in spite of the large number the net was not torn.12?Then Jesus said to them, “Come and have your breakfast.” None of the disciples dared to ask him who he was; they knew it was the Lord.13-14?Jesus went and took the bread and gave it to them and gave them all fish as well. This is already the third time that Jesus showed himself to his disciples after his resurrection from the dead.15?When they had finished breakfast Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others?” “Yes, Lord,” he replied, “you know that I am your friend.”16?“Then feed my lambs,” returned Jesus. Then he said for the second time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” “Yes, Lord,” returned Peter. “You know that I am your friend.”17?“Then care for my sheep,” replied Jesus. Then for the third time, Jesus spoke to him and said, “Simon, son of John, are you my friend?” Peter was deeply hurt because Jesus’ third question to him was “Are you my friend?”, and he said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I am your friend!”18?“Then feed my sheep,” Jesus said to him. “I tell you truly, Peter, that when you were younger, you used to dress yourself and go where you liked, but when you are an old man, you are going to stretch out your hands and someone else will dress you and take you where you do not want to go.”19?(He said this to show the kind of death—by crucifixion—by which Peter was going to honour God.) Then Jesus said to him, “You must follow me.”20-21?Then Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus loved following behind them. (He was the one who had his head on Jesus’ shoulder at supper and had asked, “Lord, who is the one who is going to betray you?”) So he said, “Yes, Lord, but what about him?”22?“If it is my wish,” returned Jesus, “for him to stay until I come, is that your business, Peter? You must follow me.” (Phillips) 6667524532200The flowers are placed today to the glory of God in memory of Brooke O’Ferrell Hutchison by John Hutchison.-3365512192000If you would like to put flowers in the sanctuary onany of the following dates, please contact Pat Nelson: May 262190751460500June 2July 14The Numbers – General Operating BudgetAmount Needed to Meet Budget:$ 88,400 Receipts as of 04-28-19:$ 63,393 Over/(Under) to Date: $( 25,007)Attendance: April 7 = 58April 14 = 81April 21 = 81April 28 = 69Serving TodayElder/Trustee Greeter for Today, May 5th: Joel MabeElder/Trustee Greeter for May 12th: Dennis AdamsNursery Worker for Today, May 5th: Kaye BrookshireNursery Worker for May 12th: Tracie MarshallOpportunities for the WeekMonday, May 6 7:00 PMWF Board Meeting – Young Adult ClassroomTuesday, May 7 9:00 AMBible Study – Mayberry’s 7:00 PMChurch Council MeetingWednesday, May 8 6:00 PMBag Supper 6:45 PMBible Study 6:30 PMHandbell Rehearsal 7:30 PMSanctuary Choir RehearsalSunday, May 12Fourth Sunday of Easter / Mother’s Day9:00 AMMother’s Day Breakfast10:30 AMWorship Service -200448-3365500-237067-135467 The men of the church would like to invite everyone to the annual Mother’s Day Breakfast to honor the mothers and ladies of the church.

Academy StreetWinston-Salem, NC SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1Welcome to Ardmore Moravian Church“Where Communion and Community Come Together”We are a Christ-centered fellowship of people bound by love of Jesus and one another. Our greatest hope is that God will be glorified through the power and presence of the Holy Spirit among us. We have gathered to worship; celebrating the eternal life won for us by Christ through His death and resurrection as promised in the Bible. God has created and called us into relationship with Himself (communion) and with one another (community). We need the Lord, and we need each other. As you draw close to God, may you also grow in friendship with those around you. We believe God has gifted people in every age. So our worship is marked by a variety of styles and expressions of music, liturgy, prayer and proclamation. We seek to blend these expressions in a way that pleases God and edifies one another. The Moravian Church, while unfamiliar to many, is actually one of the oldest Protestant denominations in the world. Our roots and heritage run deep, even one hundred years prior to the Great Reformation. Yet our sense of mission is alive and active today as we serve the Lord in ministry together. Jesus said to His disciples, “…you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.” At Ardmore Moravian we sincerely strive to live that promise. We worship, study the Holy Scriptures, fellowship and grow as Disciples of Christ together here at the corner of Hawthorne and Academy. We ask the Lord then to send us out and employ us for His glory as we share the Gospel - the Good News of Christ - locally, regionally and globally.If you are searching for a meaningful relationship with God and productive friendships with other people, you’ve come to the right place, “Where Communion and Community Come Together”.
