FAMILY
Between getting snowed in and working, this is the first time I had a chance to update the website!  My first blog post for the new Year 2007!
 
Well winter caught up to us with a vengence.  It was bound to happen.  You will never be able to convince us northerners that global warming is something we need to be concerned about. 
 
The Pastor talked alot about family today.  It is funny out things work sometimes.  All the topics the Pastor mentioned, the wife and I actually talked about before going to church.  Such as the children wondering whether we are proud of them or not.  The "family" is what made this country strong and it will be the "family" that will revive it God willing.  Single mom, two moms or two dads, single dad or no mom or dad is NOT God's plan.  I do realize that circumstances can force people into the single mom or dad situation and sometimes no mom and dad situation.  However, there is a big difference in being forced and choosing those situations!
 
Those that know Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour having that special relationship are fully aware of the love that comes from family.  Because the family that God planned, one Mom, one Dad together raising those gifts from God (children) allows us to taste however slight the love from our Heavenly family that we have through Jesus Christ!

This week's memory verse

bible3_sm.jpg

1 Samuel 16:7  The Lord does not see as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.




 


COAT DRIVE - We want to bless people this winter by providing them with a coat, hat, scarf or gloves.  If you have any of these items in storage, in closets or simply laying around in the way and you KNOW you will most likely never wear these items again, please bring them in to the church so that they can be bundled up and given to someone who could really use them now.  God bless you as you give.

FAMILY BIBLE STUDY - We want to invite you to come to our Family Bible study.  You will get sound Biblical teaching and great fellowship.  It begins at 10am and we have a class just for you.

SPECIAL MUSIC - We are in need of singers and musicians for our special music for Sunday morning.  If you would like to help, please let Shirley King know or call (269) 303-0330.

JUST ASK SOMEONE - This week will you ask someone to come to church?  It is easy to do.  Just try and see what happens.

REMINDER: We have a Prayer dish and Praise dish in the foyer.  All are welcome to put your requests in and we will pray over these and add them to the next bulletin for prayer. You can also go to the prayer section of this website to submit prayer requests online.
