On our walk. . . . . . . . . . . March 25, 2007
Pastor’s Message –
Isaiah 50: 4-5
The
Lord has given me the tongue of a teacher, that I may know how to sustain the
weary word. Morning by morning he wakens me --- wakens my ear to listen as
those are taught. The Lord has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious.
Do you hear the Lord every
morning when you wake up? Do you take
time to listen to what he has to say? If you do hear him, can you be the
teacher he wants you to be? Can you reach
out to those in our community who have not heard the Good News? The Lord is looking for those who will spread
the news of His sacrifice. During this Easter season let all of us invite one
person to join us to hear and learn the Good News of Jesus Christ. To hear what Christ did for us on that cross.
Hope you have a great week. God Bless!
Rev. Ed

It was the cruelest of times. Under Herod’s torturous
reign, families struggled to survive and yet, in the midst of utter turmoil, a
young woman’s faith was put to the test. Mary and Joseph on an incredible
journey of hope and discovery. Epic in its scope yet intimate in it’s portrayal
of this historical family, the wonderful DVD is a family feature that will be
cherished for years to come
Remember:
