Amelia Church of Christ - Christian Church in Amelia, OH near Cincinnati in Clermont County

ACC's annual congregational meeting is this Sunday, Nov. 22 immediately following the 11:00 am service. 

This is an important time to celebrate what God has done and is going to do in our church family. We'll have the chance to be reminded of our vision, show our support for the men God has called to leadership roles in our church, etc. If ACC is your church home, it's very important that you be there.

If you absolutely cannot make the meeting, absentee ballots for the leadership selection will be available. Contact us if you would like one. According to our bylaws, you must be at least 16 years of age and have been an active member of ACC for at least six months to vote.

We will not be holding a congregational dinner after this year's meeting.  With the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, it is not the best time of year for such an event.

The duration of the meeting will not be extremely long, but it is an important time in our church.  Make plans to be there.

Start the process for figuring out where you are called to serve at the Amelia Church of Christ by filling out the Personal Ministry Inventory form online.

Dave Hubert, our new Minister of Involvement, has developed this simple form to begin helping every person from ACC determine where your gifts and your passion intersect. After many years in ministry, it is clear that Dave has a particular gift and passion for helping others move into serving roles in the church. Paper forms are also available in the church foyer on the desk. Fill out the form and leave it in the file holder or hand it to Dave.

As we learned during our recent Simple Church series, serving is the crucial third step in ACC's new Connecting, Growing, Serving vision. We are all called to serve in some capacity.

• Contact Dave Hubert with any questions

In the middle of its Connecting, Growing, Serving vision series, the Amelia Church of Christ today announced that the church will hire a part-time youth minister to take over the junior and senior high ministry.

The hire is necessary to move Brian Morrissey, youth and worship minister at ACC for more than seven years, into his new role as worship and small groups minister.

Pastor Mike Edmisten and Brian explained from the stage Sunday that offering small groups at ACC next year will allow every member of the congregation an opportunity to grow deeper in their faith by exploring the Bible together in a more intimate small-group setting.

• Listen to the entire sermon to hear our plan for helping you grow.

Once a part-time youth minister is hired, Brian will help that person get established in their new position then finalize the small-groups structure and finish training facilitators. Small groups are expected to begin about six months from the time a student minister is hired.

Church leaders have designed small groups to facilitate opportunities to grow closer to God and grow closer to one another, the crucial second step in ACC's Connecting, Growing, Serving vision, all of which is being announced during a three-week series called "Simple Church" Oct. 11-25.

The congregation discovered during the first week the importance of connecting to Christ and connecting to one another during our Sunday morning worship service.

• Listen to week one to hear more about connecting.

The last part of the exciting but simple vision will be revealed next week as we discover the importance of serving Christ and serving others.

Due to illness and other unforseen circumstances, the Amelia Church of Christ will be having a make-up day for directory pictures. The make-up day will be Thursday, Nov. 19 from 2:30 pm to 9:00 pm at the church. If you weren't able to make it to your scheduled appointment, please plan to have your family portrait taken on Nov. 19. Schedule your new time here.
