WELCOME!

Happy 4th of July!!! If you are planning a trip, please be safe. We have several members that are now or will be traveling. Please keep all of them in your prayers during this busy travel time of year.

We will have a Gospel Hoedown this month on the 26th at 6pm. Shannon has something planned but he is not letting anyone know what it is. You will have to be here to see!!!!

The new board officers will assume their duties this month for the upcoming church physical year. Just a reminder that the people who were elected as Ministry Chairmen will be asked to announce the 2 or 3 members who will be serving with them in their ministry at the next board meeting.

PASTOR'S CORNER

Rev. Steven Sherrill

I wanted to share with you the ABCs (okay and DE) of connecting with God:

 

Acknowledge Sin – “All have sinned and are not good enough for God’s glory.” Romans 3:23

 

Believe in Christ – “God loved the world so much that He gave His one and only Son [Jesus Christ] so that whoever believes in Him may not be lost, but have eternal life.” John 3:16

 

Change of Heart - “Change your hearts and lives and be baptized, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” Acts 2:38

 

Depend on Jesus – “Depend on the Lord; trust Him, and He will take care of you.” Psalm 37:5

 

Experience Power – “I can really know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised Him from the dead. I can learn what it means to suffer with Him, sharing in His death, so that, somehow, I can experience the resurrection from the dead!” Philippians 3:10-11

 

I pray that we all are living the ABCs of life and are connecting with God numerous times each day.

Always in His Ways,

Bro. Steven
