Blizzard?
Posted by: | CommentsHey Leaders,
Just a word to be ready to contact your classes about Sunday. Saturday afternoon we will make a prayerful decision about services Sunday. So, if we do limit, or cancel Sunday activities, be prepared to contact your class rolls to get the word out.
Also, stay connected to www.qsbc.org, Facebook, Twitter, and watch TV broadcasts as well for the latest word on cancellations.
An extra hour of the Son!
Posted by: | CommentsHey Leaders!
Can you believe it is time to spring those clocks forward? Wow! What a winter we’ve had. I am personally looking forward to the extra hour of sun at night.
Speaking of an extra hour of sun, as you set your clocks, remember to take this as an opportunity to set your Son clocks. Maybe it is that you have neglected your own personal time with the Son every day. Please use this time change, as a time of change in your own daily walk.
We have talked many times about our inability to fill another’s cup if our own cup is dry. Meet with Him everyday, like the woman at the well, who experienced a living Savior, Who is the well-spring of Living water. Remember this is not lesson prep time, this is your own personal, one on one time, with Jesus Christ.
13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again ; 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst ; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.” 15 The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, so I will not be thirsty nor come all the way here to draw.”
John 4:13-15 (Crosswalk, NASB)
See you Sunday!

Leader Meeting Wednesday 24th, Cafe, 6:15
Posted by: | CommentsHey Leaders,
I am excited about meeting with you all tomorrow night in the Cafe to talk about some of the exciting things that are on the way this year at QSBC!
Please take some time to drop a quick email note or call to your Sunday School team about being at this important meeting. We will meet together, and then you’ll have time to plan as a team for the month ahead.
We’ll also take time to pray:
Pray that the Lord will use us in ministry in NW OKC!
Pray that the Lord will use us to touch individual lives this Sunday at QSBC!
See you at the Cafe,
Ray
Let’s Pray Leaders!

Quick recap of some things to focus on from our last meeting.
As stated in the video, here is a recap of our first leader meeting of the year. Here are some key points:
1. Focus on what is going well in Sunday School, and what is not. Make tweaks to your ministry with members, visitors, and the teaching time. Meet as a team and talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly and change. This is a guilt free zone, let’s do our best!
2. Focus on prayer. On our recent trip to visit some churches, I came away knowing that I need to spend more concerted, focused time in prayer personally and with those that I minister. Ask the Lord to fill you and use you! The challenge I gave is to meet, this week, as a team to pray before you have your Sunday School small group. Let’s trust the Master’s promises!
I love you all and I am thankful to serve you!

Ooops! At Grandma’s and forgot to bring Lesson Guide…
Posted by: | CommentsHave you done this before, you head out on a long family trip to make it back for Sunday School Sunday, only to discover that you left your study guide on the coffee table at home? Ouch! Never fear, if your relatives have an internet connection, a coffee pot, and a quiet room, you are ready!
Simply go to:
Find your lesson type (Family Bible Study or Explore the Bible) and find at least a thumbnail of the lesson with extra helps to get you primed until you get back to your own study guide. Also, don’t forget the trusty and versatile www.biblestudytools.com as you miss your library of resources back home.
Be careful if you journey! Thank the Lord for all of His blessings.
