Thoughts from the weekend

Thoughts from the weekend

Many thanks to those who came out last Saturday to help move some mulch on the church grounds.

I really appreciate you taking the time out of your day off to come and help us!

A special thanks to Amanda Boon, Leisa McNamara and Debbie Flattery!

Hot weather has finally arrived - you've got to like summer.

Several families were gone from our Sunday morning services yesterday - summer vacations are in full swing!

Excellent presentation by missionary Alan Pettinger yesterday.  I understand that he was a "hit" with the teenagers in the youth group bible class - sharing stories of being a missionary in South Africa.

My prayer is that teenagers will be called into full time missions service by having contact with the missionaries that come through our church.

God is still calling people to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ in other countries!

What a blessing it was to me to see men standing around the altar in both services - lead by the Holy Spirit to commit their lives to being the spiritual leaders in the home that God has called them to be!

May God help all of us as Christian men - to step it up and lead our homes, spiritually!

Enough of being spiritual wimps!

Remember:  People do what people see.  Much more is caught than taught. 

As a parent - your kids are watching you - and please know this:  you are much more of a spiritual influence and motivator on them than any activity that they might do in the church.

It is great to memorize the word - but we must also live the word as well.

Had a great staff meeting today.  Am thankful for our entire pastoral staff.

Okay, I have to admit that I am pulling for the San Antonio Spurs to win the NBA championship.  The play with style and class.

The sun has just about set for our White Sox.

Love you all......
