From Sunday's message:
 
Back in the summer of 2015 the movie "Inside Out" was released by Disney.
The film raised a question that we will seek to answer during the next few Sundays here in worship.   How does one lead an emotionally healthy spiritual life?
"Inside Out" raises this and other questions by entering the mind of eleven-year-old named Riley. Five of her emotions become characters in the movie. These dominant emotions are: Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust. The five characters in Riley's head, led by Joy, guide her through life.
What does the Bible say about emotional life? Our worship will contrast some of the ideas from the film and instructions from the Bible during the series
Inside Out: Emotional Healthy Spirituality.
 
En Agape',
Rev. Michael Weeks

Our guest this Sunday was Darrell Wright who spoke about the 7th Annual Memorial 5K Run/Walk for Hope on May 5th in memory of his daughter, Anna.  All proceeds will support funding for Anna's Well in Uganda, Africa and The Women of Worth Project of Lynchburg College Women's Soccer Team and will be given in memory of Anna Wright, a former soccer player at Patrick Henry High School and Lynchburg College. Information:  Contact Darrell or Nancy Wright
