Because of all the things we
adjust to everyday, I would like
to remind us to be mindful of
some important items:
●
●
●
Our volunteers are willing to
teach your children, and in
return need and require the
honor of your consideration.
Please bring your child to
class by 9:45 am when class
begins and pick up your child
as soon as class is over. Most
teachers also have children
to pick up or other obligations
following class.
If your child has an allergy,
please notify the teacher as
snacks are sometimes given
in classrooms.
Bible Hour and Nursery
attendants are volunteers and
need to get to their families
right after worship is over,
too. Please honor them by
checking your child out
immediately following worship
assemblies.
Thank you for your consideration
in this matter.

Here’s why:
1. Bible classes begin at 9:45 am
and late arrivals cause distress
to our toddlers. Check-in begins
at 9:30 am, hence, we check-in
15 minutes BEFORE class
begins and 15 minutes AFTER
class has started.
2. In these hallways are the
Nursery and Preschoolers Bible
Classes.
They are locked to
keep the little ones IN the
hallways and as a security
measure to keep
others OUT.
Thank you for your
understanding in this
matter.

Una familia guiado por el Espíritu, buscando conocer a Dios, creciendo en
la fe, sirviendo a otros y compartiendo a Jesucristo.
APUNTES SOBRE EL MENSAJE DEL
DOMINGO PASADO
En el mensaje del domingo ante
pasado, empecé una nueva serie de
mensaje sobre el Espíritu Santo,
donde dimos a conocer tres formas en
que nos ayuda el E.S. en nuestras
vidas.
Primero, nos guía a toda
verdad. Dos, el E. S. glorificaría al
Hijo; y tercero, el E.S. nos santifica.
Aparte, en otro tema, podríamos
hablar sobre la forma en que el E.S.
intercede por los santos en sus
oraciones. Pero primero, les hable
este domingo pasado, sobre la forma
en que el E.S. nos guía a toda verdad.
La palabra de Dios en Efesios 2:1-3,
nos recuerda quien nos guiaba y nos
dirigía antes de conocer a Cristo, pues
éramos guiados “conforme al
príncipe de la potestad del aire, el
espíritu que ahora opera en los
hijos de desobediencia”. Era ese
“espíritu” quien dominaba nuestra vida
pasada, pero ahora somos guiados por
el Espíritu del Señor. Y donde está el
Espíritu del Señor, allí está el Señor y
allí hay libertad. 2 Corintios 3:17. Es
el Espíritu del Señor quien ahora nos
libra del poder del mal y la forma en
que nos libra del mal es por medio de
la verdad.
Si una persona se
encuentra esclavizada en el pecado
debido
a
su
desobediencia, solo
puede ser librada
esa persona de su
esclavitud
por
medio del poder de
Dios en el Espíritu
Santo y eso al
conocer la verdad.
Mientras el espíritu
del mal (el espíritu
de este mundo y del príncipe de este
mundo), domina la vida del mundo
para seguir el error y la corrupción de
este mundo; el maligno esclaviza al
hombre en todas estas cosas.
El
diablo logra su meta por medio de
estrategias engañosas y falsas que
llevan a los hombres a la perdición y a
la esclavitud. Por este motivo, los
sicólogos no pueden librar a los
adictos ni los sicólogos, ni tampoco los
médicos, porque la condición terrible
en que se encuentran los hombres no
es solo físico sino sobre todo
espiritual. El hombre ha caído en
muchas trampas puestas por el
maligno, pero Dios ahora nos ensena
el engaño de todas estas cosas; y nos
enseña ahora como cuidarnos de
volver a caer en las mismas trampas
del engaño.
Solo siguiendo la
dirección, su guía, del E.S. podemos
ser verdaderamente libres.
ALUMNOS Y CLASES DE INGLES
Recuerden hermanos de saludar a
todas las familias que se inscribieron
para tomar clases de inglés los
miércoles.
De hacer tiempo de
saludarlos y hacerlos sentir bien
recibidos entre nosotros. Hay veces
cuando nos olvidamos de lo difícil que
es visitar un lugar nuevo y
desconocido, no sabiendo a quien
saludar ni donde encontrar los salones.
Recordemos la primera veces cuando
nosotros visitamos este lugar y lo difícil
que fue hacerlo; pero gracias a Dios ya
nos hemos ubicado un poco mejor.
Ahora nos toca a nosotros recibir
aquellos que nos visitan. Tomemos un
poco de nuestro tiempo para saludar a
nuestros visitantes antes de después
de cada clase.
Para ello será
necesario llegar un poquito más
temprano.
BKU PROXIMO DOMINGO
El próximo BKU, reunión mensual de
cada primer domingo del mes, será
hospedada por la familia Sotelo. Así lo
habíamos dado a conocer
anteriormente en reuniones anteriores.
El próximo domingo les daremos a
conocer la dirección de nuestros
hermanos y los informes en cómo
llegar al hogar de ellos. Por lo pronto
tengan en cuenta la reunión para
hacer todos los planes al respecto, y
recuerden que la siguiente reunión, la
de Noviembre será en la casa de la
familia Villagomez (Steve y Susan).
Y la reunión de diciembre queda
pendiente con la hermana Alma
Olvera. Si es necesario hacer cambios,
como puede suceder en ocasiones, se
los daremos a conocer con tiempo.

SALUDOS
Esta semana tuve la oportunidad de
participar de las conferencias que
hubo en la ciudad de Abilene, Texas
en la Universidad de esa ciudad. Las
conferencias estuvieron bien
concurridas y los mensajes que se
presentaron, como siempre, fueron
muy edificantes y motivadoras. El
miércoles después de las conferencias
tuvo la oportunidad de estar con los
hermanos de San Ángelo, Texas y
todos ellos envían un cordial saludo a
todos los santos de esta ciudad. Mi
agradecimiento a Margarito
Gonzales por tomar mi clase en mi
ausencia.

CARLSON’S CORNER
SERVING TOGETHER
Our Deepest Sympathies to
Most Pleasant Lord’s
Day Morning, Fellow
Travelers.
In
the
poetic words of the
great preacher Calvin
Miller: “We’ve come to
Terri Vehon in the loss
of her father
hear
the
Great
Singer!” I hope your
hearts are ready to meet God in this
transcendent time of corporate
worship. Remember, the Holy Spirit
says you are ill-prepared to worship
God if you are out of whack with a
Brother or a Sister. If you harbor
anger or resentment, please get rid
of it this morning. It hinders your
j o u r n e y… Gr e a t t o ha v e o u r
missionary Robbie Goldman in the
house this morning. We appreciate
the fine work he and Karen do on
the streets of Denver ministering to
“the least of these.”…
Congratulations to Kim & Nathan
on their wedding last night. I expect
they are somewhere in the
worshipping throng today. May God
bless their new life together, and
may they be a great witness to His
love…I begin a new “Discovery”
Class, October 11, at 9:45 am in
Room 218. This is for any and all,
new members and explorers, who
would like to know more about the
adverbial questions surrounding the
fellowship and activities of this
congregation. I’ll explain the
difference between BKU’s and Life
Groups. I’ll share our mission and
vision and introduce you to our
website and all its possibilities. I’ll
talk about elders, deacons, and
ministry leaders. I’ll explain how you
can get involved and what is
expected of you and what you can
expect of us. I’ll explain the workings
of the Ministry Team and introduce
many of our major ministries. I’ll go
deeper into what it means to be part
of the GracePlace. If you are new,
please come and take advantage of
this time of orientation. And as a
special feature, this class will evolve
into a new Sunday Morning Bible
Class; perhaps the one for which
you’ve been searching. Please take a
second and let me or the office know
if you plan to come…Ya’ know I love
~Ron
ya’!

new project. Please join us each
Tuesday from 6:00—9:00 pm in the
Fellowship Center. Contact Susan
