Well, it’s “Summertime” (almost). School is out, vacations begin, and we sort of kick back, relax and enjoy the weather. However recently some of our adjoining neighbors in the connecting states have endured some horrific weather conditions that have caused some unbelievable conditions. Some lost their lives, some suffered damages to their homes and communities. Let us pray for their restoration in Jesus’ name.
Our church families have lost some loved ones to death and others are battling illnesses requiring hospital stays. Let us pray for strength for their families and loved ones.
Shortly our synod will elect a new Bishop, let us pray that God will put the best person in position to lead and support the “Church” going forward, in the right direction. The church needs a leader that is not only qualified but spiritual enough to seek God for divine directions. With that said, I will be out the week of June 7th to the 9th attending the Assembly in Louisville, Kentucky and Rev. Lynn Sullivan, a competent and well gifted minister will preach on June the 9th. I know you will give her your love and support as you have given me.
Finally, let us be safe this summer. Let us continue to read our bibles and study the word of God. Also, I will be teaching a six-week summer mid-day bible class on Wednesdays at noon, beginning July 17th to August 21st. We will study on “identifying Christ in the Old Testament”. So come out with your questions, your ideas and your input. Let us see Christ in the beginning.
Our thought for today is:
2 Corinthians 4:5
5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.
Until next time, be safe, be peaceful, be blessed.
In His Service,
Pastor Marjorie McDaniel
