New Vision is very excited to announce the opening of  its "BLOG" (an On-line Journal). The "BLOG" will have either a provocative question,a stimulating comment,or an insightful thought relative to a specific topic or event; to which you will be able to submit your comments. To join the on-line forum and for directions on how to add your comments, go to www.nvision.org/blog. Initial Blog thought: Consider a real-life example of an opportunity you had to deal with, a trial or temptation (in the work place, with your children/spouse, at church, etc.).How did you do?   If you have any questions, please contact Min. Kevin V. Montague at kevin.montague@nvision.org or contact the church office during normal business hours.

Our summer reading assignment is BE MATURE  the  study of the book of James. You will need to purchase the following two books:1. Be Mature by Warren Wiersbe and 2. The Wiersbe Bible Study on the book of James.  For instructions on how to order both books, pick up a flyer from the table in the rear of the sanctuary or visit our webpage at www.nvision.org.  Book discussions will take place during the Learning Zone and  in your Community  Group throughout the summer.

The Learning Zone focus for August is our summer reading assignment, BE MATURE, a study of the book of James.

The community groups are small powerful segments of our New Vision church family and they are a critical part of our Christian growth.  If you have not connected with a group, please sign up today.  If you need information, contact Elder Norval Carroll at norval.carroll@nvision.org

Olympic Gold is New Vision's 3 month push from now until October 5th, Celebration Sunday.  While the world participates in its 2008 Olympics, in China, we will extract some themes such as competition, survival, perseverance, victory and defeat to spur each other on towards the Gold Medal of Life (James 1:12).  Visit the nvision.org web site to hear the sermons.
