Nov. 9... Training Materials

Good day to all of you. I saw a glorious sunrise today.. orange with pinks and gold. It was truly amazing! What a way to start the day! I trust that you will also have a fine day.

PERSONAL NOTE: It was good to have the "new" keyboard on the platform with Jan Foltz playing along with Linda Hittle. Jan is allowing us to use her home keyboard (which was formerly used in an auditorium) in our worship services. It will add a fuller sound to all of our singing. Thanks Jan!

A big thanks to Mr. Bud and the Savior Singers for the special music yesterday. It was a great number... we were blessed. Thanks to Emily Warner for her solo section in the song. Good work kids ( and Mr. Bud).

It was also great to take a moment in the service to honor our men and women who have served in our armed forces. We learned from each of them which branch they were in, which theater they were in and when they served. Thank you warriors! We owe you much on this Veteran's Day.

Coming up: On Wednesday, missionary Katherine Niles will be with us to speak and update us on what the Niles family is doing at the present time. Be there at 6:15 pm. in order to share in this report. Be up-to-date on what is happening in their lives. It will help you know how to pray.

As some of you know, "Ask the Pastor" has been started up again on channel WAQP 49 (channel 10 on cable) in Saginaw. I have been asked to resume making regular appearances on the program. It is usually once a month. I have agreed to appear. I view this as a good opportunity to give a clear witness for Christ and to share a conservative, evangelical, biblical point of view on the topics asked about. Pray for me as I have occasion to be on the program. The broadcasts are sometimes beamed all over the world. My schedule for appearances so far is: Monday, Nov. 23 at 2 pm.; Dec. 7 and 21 (both Mondays) at 2 pm.

YOU CAN KNOW THE WILL OF GOD: In the Book of I Peter, chapter4 and verse eight, we discover that the Holy reveals it is God's will that each believer hold unfailing love toward each other. This simply means that we are to go out of our way to love the members within our range of fellowship. This is a command from God!

LEADERSHIP QUOTE: "The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly." Theodore Roosevelt
