Thoughts from the weekend

Thoughts from the weekend:

Thankful for a wonderful weekend.

Pastor Aldin shared with me that they had a wonderful "trunk or treat" last evening - with several new families attending!

Our goal continues to be bringing people to Christ!

People need the Lord!

I really enjoyed communion yesterday.  There was a sincere seeking of the Lord - both in gratefulness for what Christ did on the cross for us - and for forgiveness of sins.

Grateful to Pastor Amanda and her worship team for their leading us into the presence of the Lord!

Debbie and I are also thankful for the outpouring of love and support that we have received during Pastor Appreciation month.

We love you too!

I know that we will all continue to move forward as we stay connected to the vine.

Being connected to the vine is all important!

We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.

Great game between the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants.  The Cowboys literally lost by one finger.  Dez Bryant's finger being out of bounds when he caught the football for what would have been a game winning touchdown. 

The Dallas Cowboys are just not a good football team this year. 

Beautiful fall weather - wonderful time to be in Chicago!

I leave you with the words of the Apostle Paul, "Love is patient, love is kind.  It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.  Love never fails."

I love you all.....
