Greetings to all of you on this lovely Spring day.
PERSONAL NOTE: I want to thank everyone who made the 178th year anniversary Sunday service the blessing that it was. Thanks to all who planned and helped distribute the flowers to the long-time members. Thanks to the choir for the number in song... nice. I also want to thank those who prepared the communion setting...THANKS!
COMING UP: V.B.S... "Pandamania" ... June 20-24. This will be a great week!

BOOK RECOMMENDATION: I am recommending the book by Wayne A. Grudem, CHRISTIAN BELIEFS. It is a Zondervan paperback book for around $13 and covers what he calls the twenty basics every Christian should know. This book makes a very nice teaching tool to use in a class setting. I think that you would find it helpful.

YOU CAN KNOW THE WILL OF GOD: In First Peter, chapter 3 and verse 16 it says, "keeping a clear conscience...". In context, the author is speaking about a Christian having an answer ready for their faith, to those who ask. We need to do so carefully and with respect, so that if anyone brings a false accusation, we may may have a clear conscience in how we handled the matter. This is the will of God.
