FROM THE PASTOR
IMITATING CHRIST He who follows Me, walks not in darkness, says the Lord (1 John 8:12). By these words of Christ we are advised to imitate His life and habits, if we wish to be truly enlightened and free from all blindness of heart. Let our chief effort therefore, be to study the life of Jesus Christ. The teaching of Christ is more excellent than all the advice of the saints, and he who has His spirit will find in it a hidden manna. Now, there are many who hear the Gospel often but care little for it because they have not the spirit of Christ. Yet whoever wishes to understand fully the words of Christ must try to pattern his whole life on that of Christ. (Copied)
Roger ____________ In todays Board Game lesson we will talk about the game, SORRY. We were taught to say Im sorry at an early age. But do we really mean it, or are we only sorry we got caught? Your child will learn today that God wants us to be sincere with our sorry, with Him and with others. God wants us to apologize with no excuses and to make things right. Join us: 10:30am in Kids Church! ______________ CONGRATULATIONS ITS A BOY Congratulations to Branden & Kristen Snyder on the birth of their little boy.

PASTORS JONATHONS WORD OF THE WEEK

- Ronnie Shultz

Have you ever thought about what the word Lord means? We sometimes think it is another name for God, but it's actually a title. It refers to a master, owner, or a person who is in a position of authority. So take a minute to think this through: Do you really believe that Jesus is your master? Do you believe that He is your owner-- that you belong to Him? The problem is, many in the church want to "confess that Jesus is Lord," yet they don't believe that He is their master. ~ Francis Chan
