June 8, 2010... Training Materials

Greetings to all of you on this Tuesday with a sunny morning. You will note that the Blog was not up on Monday due to Blogger problems on their end.

PERSONAL NOTE: I want to thank Dee Wilson for her ministry in song last Sunday. I enjoyed it very much. I also want to thank all of the people who participated in setting up communion. THANKS! We also congratulate all of the members on the anniversary list from last Sunday. These were people who have been members for 40 years or more. WOW! A special recognition was given to Elizabeth Swift who has been a member of FBC for 82 YEARS! AMEN!!!

A mighty thanks to everyone who helped with the CAR SHOW! WOW!!! It takes a lot of hands to make it happen. I feel bad that the weather did not cooperate with us but that is the risk of an outside event. Thanks goes out to Terry and Sharon Garfield and their host of associates who made the event happen. I believe that we had 43 cars registered. There were some real beauties there (cars, that is). Here is what I know... much evangelistic material was distributed. We will trust God that exactly what He wanted was accomplished!.

Don't forget that VBS is upon us in two more Mondays! Are you ready? It should be a great time of salvation and discipleship. Please pray for the workers... and the kids.

Remember the Summer Concert series presentation on Sunday, June 27 at 4 pm. Start now deciding who you will invite to the concert. It is an opportunity to expose people to the gospel through song.

Please pray for me and the Spainhower family as Terry and I will both speak at the funeral of Delmar Spainhower today (8th) at 1 pm.

YOU CAN KNOW THE WILL OF GOD: Last week we looked at I Corinthians 15: 58. Today's word is also from that verse. It is "...Let nothing move you." The context has to do with resurrection and apparently questions that had come up on the subject. I can almost hear someone raise the issue of "why should we work so hard if there is no resurrection?". Paul, through the Holy Spirit makes it clear that it is our business to stand firm and not to be moved by such non biblical statements. Do not be moved in your efforts for the Lord. Our labor is not in vain!
