The Christian Messenger: Reception For Scott and Sarah Brown
The Christian Messenger: Reception For Scott and Sarah Brown
Thank you Lord, for your protection and your strength. Dont forget! Tonight is Gym-Spiration! Meet here at the church at 5:30 to head out. The Summer is already off to a great start! **Its still not too late to register your child for camp! Contact me for more information. Last week in Childrens Church we learned about David and Goliath. The Lord gave David the strength to kill Goliath using only one tiny stone. We as adults, have many Goliaths in our lives. We need to rely on God. Through Him, we will gain the strength to overcome these huge obstacles in our own lives. Hannah

SCOTTS THOUGHTS
Romans 12:1-2 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of Gods mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to Godthis is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform 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 Gods will ishis good, pleasing and perfect will. In my time as worship and outreach minister here at 5th Ave. We have focused our efforts on becoming more like Christ and inviting others to do the same. The call of Christianity is to follow Jesus with all that we are. We are to be constantly changing to be filled with love for God and overflowing with that love to be a blessing to others. A few days ago I heard someone say: Our children are missionaries we are sending to a time that we will never see. She was referring to the ripple effect our actions have that will outlive our own involvement. The seeds we sow today and others water tomorrow, as God brings the increase, may become the preachers and teachers for another generation. When we pour our hearts out in worship to God and invite others to do the same, we fulfill the great commission. When we love others as Christ does and call them to surrender their lives to follow Him, we become ambassadors for Jesus. When we cross social boundaries and reach out to the lost, the weary and the weak, we are living a Christ like life. There is no room for complacency. We are called to renew our minds daily that we might be continually in a state of transformation. Until Christ returns, our mission remains to seek and save the lost. May we continue to declare Christ as Lord through our lives given in surrender and obedience to the great commission he has given. May we daily die to self and live for him and may God receive the glory. Thank you for the opportunity to serve alongside you. As a family, we want you to know how much you have meant to us and please know that we continue to pray for you and are asking Gods richest blessings on this congregation.

Library Spotlight
Food for a Fish ~ The Whopping Story of Jonah and the Whale is a Mommy and Me book by Kelly Pulley. What happens when Jonah tries to run away from God rather than obeying Him? He learns a big, smelly lesson! True Valor is an adult fiction book by Dee Henderson. Lt. Gracie Yates spent her deployment catapulting off the deck of the USS George Washington in an F/A-18 Hornet. A self-assured naval aviator, she was flying to keep the peace while being ready for war. Major Bruce Stanton, Air Force Pararescue Jumper, had been pulling pilots and Special Forces soldiers from behind enemy lines for twelve years. Bruce knew Gracie was too good a pilot not to draw the tough flight assignments. She was on the front lines. If she got in trouble, his unit would get the call. With demanding jobs, deployed to different locations, they kept their relationship alive by writing love letters. In the face of danger, they both leaned on the truth that God is sufficient no matter what the circumstances. When shes shot down, hes got one mission - get Gracie out alive! Stop by the church library and check out a good book! If you have any questions about the library, contact Delores Payne.
