Pastor's Update 06.30.11

This Sunday we are starting a new series in the Book of Proverbs.  Since it is July 4th weekend I thought we would explore what Proverbs says about a citizen and their country.  You may be surprised to see how much this book has to say about our relationship to our nation and our responsibility to our nation.  Hope you can join us for this entire series, as we look in Proverbs for God's view on our everyday life.

Steve and Kathleen All, along with Morgan Seay spent last Friday evening painting the roof of the children's building.  Thanks for the extra effort guys.  It needs second coat if you would like to help see Steve.

In my world. . .

Last Sunday I was speaking at the Brian Center Nursing Home.  We had a great time with the residents.  Lois and Emory Hinkle helped with the music.  Hanna and Luke Bradley also sang and helped with the service.  Elaine and I really appreciated the extra help.  Pray for this monthly ministry.  Come and join us one Sunday to see whats going on.
