New Beginnings...

Next week marks the start of Awana and youth groups. Babies are no longer babies and will be joining the Awana club as cubbies...some will move from the Awana club into youth group. It's also bittersweet, as those who have graduated from high school are no longer with us and have moved into their roles as young adults, pursuing their ambitions in college or in the workforce. It's always a great to see the excitement on the kids faces as they return to groups, being with their "old" friends and meeting new ones. 

So come out and join the Awana club or youth group. If you are a parent who has not been involved or if your children have grown and you don't think there is a place for you...you are wrong! We need you! You are a great influence on these little ones and they love to have the attention of the adults as we help them learn their Bible verses and work on their patches. It is such a blessing to receive those hugs from the kids and know that YOU make a difference in their lives.

We can never have too many helpers, so please, if you're not sure where you can help, please ask Nathan H. or any of the helpers.

Serving the Lord

"...Praise the Lord! Praise God in His sanctuary! Praise Him in His mighty firmament! Praise Him for His mighty acts! Praise Him according to His excellent greatness! Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet; Praise Him with the lute and harp! Praise Him with the limbrel and dance; Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes! Praise Him with loud cymbals; Praise Him with clashing cymbals! Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!" Psalm 150:1-6 NKJV

An exerpt from the Pastor's Paragraph today...
...But today as we come to worship the King of Kings, we also come to honor a dedicated servant who has blessed so many through the decades with his music. ...A plain spoken, to the point, humorous kind of guy who ordered his life as an example to us all, God first, family second and his church third. Many a day I'm sure Harry had to deal with the issues of church finances as he worked so often in that realm. Many a day while serving as a deacon, I'm sure he had to put his own desires aside to serve the kingdom of God as he had been called and ordained to do. Many a day has he served his family, who I know love and cherish him dearly. Harry has been my teacher, me fellow deacon, my pianist, my visitation partner, my teammate and one of my mentors since the late seventies. I find it a real privilege and honor today to call him my friend. ...Thanks brother for freely serving our God and King for all of these years. I look forward for the opportunity of many more years to serve our Lord alongside you! ...

Now when they drew near Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, saying to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Loose them and bring them to Me.  And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord has need of them,’ and immediately he will send them.”
 All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying:

 “Tell the daughter of Zion,
‘Behold, your King is coming to you,
Lowly, and sitting on a donkey,
A colt, the foal of a donkey.’”

So the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them. They brought the donkey and the colt, laid their clothes on them, and set Him on them.  And a very great multitude spread their clothes on the road; others cut down branches from the trees and spread them on the road. Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying:

“Hosanna to the Son of David!
‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’
Hosanna in the highest!”

And when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, “Who is this?”

So the multitudes said, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.”

Matthew 21:1-11
