Saturday

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,

because the LORD has anointed me

to proclaim good news to the poor.

He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,

to proclaim freedom for the captives

and release from darkness for the prisoners.

~Isaiah 61:1~

We had our first meeting with Children in Action and Mission Friends last night.  I think everyone had a good time and is looking forward to next week.  We meet again at 6 P.M. Wednesday in the L-wing.  I’m thankful for the adult volunteers and for the children who attended.  The children will be giving their offering in the next few months to make purchases for Operation Christian Child.

School supplies are being marked down for the coming year.  Check out the wreaths at church to select cards for school supplies we will need to pack our Shoeboxes.

Monday

But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you,

then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve,

whether the gods your ancestors

served beyond the Euphrates,

or the gods of the Amorites,

in whose land you are living.

But as for me and my household,

we will serve the LORD.”

~Joshua 24:15~
