Love is patient, love is kind.  It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. - 1 Cor. 13:4

I’m sure you’re like me and have been in a situation where you or someone you care about hasn’t been treated kindly. It can really be hard to do the Godly thing in these situations.  How do you stay kind and patient when people are mistreating you?  How do you deal with those around you who just drive you crazy?
One important thing to remember is that you’re not going to become kind and patient in one day.  It’s a lifelong process.  So pick a small area each day that you can work on becoming more loving to others.  You might choose to let your brother pick the TV show you watch at night instead of arguing with him.  You might let the new kid go in front of you in line at lunch.  Whatever it is, find a small area where you can practice patience and kindness every day.
If you do this daily, you’ll find that you’ll become much more loving and kind than you thought you could be.  With God’s help, you can be patient and kind.
Bro. Brian

To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. - Col. 1:27

Have you ever had a friend who told you a secret?  It makes you feel important when someone tells you a secret. It makes you feel you are trusted.  Today’s Bible verse tells us a secret, which is the fact that we’ve got Christ living inside us.
Accepting Jesus as our savior is life changing.  That’s a secret we should share with everyone.  If you need help, you can rely on Jesus on the inside of you.  If you need encouragement to make it through the day, you can lean on Christ living on the inside of you.  The fact that you’ve got Christ living in you changes everything.
It gives you confidence that you can do the things that God has called you to do. It can give you peace that you’re going to be okay.  Christ living on the inside of you means that you’re equipped and able to handle anything that might come your way.  Be encouraged today.  There’s nothing that you can face that you’re not equipped to handle because you’ve got Jesus living on the inside of you.

 YARD SALE

A huge “Thank You” to everyone for a successful yard sale this past Saturday.  With your donations and help we raised $2,555.85!  All the funds raised will go toward our summer trip to Dallas this year.


2017 Graduate!

Our Graduation service will be May 21st.  We will have the church unlocked Friday May 19th to allow those students and parents to set up their tables.  We are asking the tables to be set up in the foyer/crosswalk of the church.  After the morning service we would like to honor our graduates with a church wide lunch.  The youth committee is also asking the church to please bring a covered dish that Sunday.  Let’s honor these grads on a job well done!
Our 2017 Graduates…Blake Wigginton, Dawson Young, Jacob Clouse, Jaren Johnson, Courtney Lamb and Chase Haley

Romans 8:2 (NIV) Because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.

How do you feel when it’s Friday?  Do you feel relieved?  Maybe you know that you don’t have school for a few days and get the chance to get caught up on sleep and schoolwork.  In a way, Friday is a type of freedom for students. You know that you have two days to relax and catch up.
The feeling you get on a Friday is only a small fraction of the freedom that you experience in Christ.  Today’s verse tells us that we’ve been set free from sin and death.  We are no longer bound by sin, we’re not held back by our sinful nature and it’s desires.  Rather we’ve been set free.  Sin no longer has a hold on us.
This freedom that we experience in Christ is way greater than any weekend, school break or holiday.  It’s life changing.  You’ve been made completely and totally free from the power of sin because of what Jesus did.  That’s the most freeing news there is!
Bro. Brian

This Saturday, May 6th is our yard sale.  If you have any last minute items you wish to drop off I will be at the church on Friday.  Our yard sale will start at 6:00AM Saturday morning.  Thanks again to all who donated items and to all the help received with this fundraiser.
