Out of love for one another…….
We are currently requiring everyone attending the Sunday morning worship assembly to wear a mask in keeping with the Health Departments guidelines. We thank you for your consideration of and care for others. Masks are available if you need one.
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:34-35 ESV)
Scripture of the Week
“Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God — which is your spiritual worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — His good, pleasing and perfect will.” ~~ Romans 12:1-2
Something to Smile About
Unfortunate Names
Mr. and Mrs. Brown had two sons. One was named Mind Your Own Business & the other was named Trouble. One day the two boys decided to play hide and seek. Trouble hid while Mind Your Own Business counted to one hundred. Mind Your Own Business began looking for his brother behind garbage cans and bushes. Then he started looking in and under cars until the owner of the lot approached him and asked, “What are you doing?” “Playing a game,” the boy replied. “What is your name?” the man questioned. “Mind Your Own Business.” Furious the lot owner inquired, “Are you looking for trouble?!” The boy replied, “Why, yes.”Think About It
IT’S All Up to Me!
I cannot change others,
But I can change me.
I must learn to focus
Being the best I can be.
When I change my outlook
And improve through and through,
Amazingly I find
That others get better too!
