Pastor's Note
|
|
|
Last Saturday and Sunday were days in our church calendar that are really remarkable. We
granted 17 diplomas on Saturday to young men and women whose passion for the Lord is evident in their lives. It is glorious to be a training base for young people to minister around the world. Then our annual Baby Dedication Service
on Sunday is always a favorite. What a joy to educate and give diplomas for a finished educational journey and then dedicate families and parents to the Lord the next day. How fitting for our ministry to
enjoy these two events back to back.
Our Couples Retreat is just a couple of weeks out
on June 2-3. We still have slots available, so I encourage you to sign up and enjoy time with your spouse
, and learn and fellowship
with others attending.
Tuesday
night was our Kindergarten graduation and tonight (Friday) will be our 8th and 12th grade graduations. It is a joy to pour our lives and our ministry into the lives of these young people. What a privilege!
I will finish my series on "Disciple-making Disciples" this Sunday as we have four relationships to explore. It is a good closure to this series. The most important place to make disciples for Jesus is in your home. How you live and how you speak will leave a greater impact on your children's lives than anything else. Come listen to God's Word regarding your role in making disciples in your home.
I will have a 10 minute Question & Answer time after the morning service this Sunday (May 21) to talk about next year's trip to Israel. The
brochures are at the Welcome Center.
See ya Sunday!
Kneeling to stand,
