Message From The Pastor
posted November 28, 2018
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ whose birthday we are celebrating this time of the year. God loves each one of you so much that He sent His only begotten Son down to this earth to be born of a virgin, to live and set the example for us to live by and then to go to the cross to die in our place. So that our sins can be forgiven and we can receive the gift of God which is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. He then went to Heaven to prepare a place for each and every follower of Jesus Christ. One day He will come back to receive us unto Himself, so that we may be where He is.
As we celebrate Christmas, let us keep our focus on whose birthday we celebrate, for He is the reason for the season. Always remember God is with you and He will never leave nor forsake you.
In December we are observing the Week of Prayer for International Missions , the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering, which will be collected up the entire month. Also, we will have an angel tree this year. The Women on Mission are sponsoring our Christmas card distribution. Sunday, Dec. 9th, 5:30 PM we will have our Christmas banquet followed at 7:00 PM with our Christmas play. Wednesday, Dec. 19th at 7:00 PM is the Christmas by Carols and Candlelight service followed by Sunday, Dec. 23 with our Christmas Cantata. On Christmas Day, the 25th at 10:00 AM is the informal Christmas Day service.
This is a busy time of the year, but always remember it is His birthday and let's keep the focus on Him.
See you in church to worship Jesus Christ!
In Christ's Love and Service,
Pastor Joe
