Greetings on this very sunny January Tuesday (one day late).
PERSONAL NOTE: I want to thank everyone who was involved in planning and ministering in the worship service Sunday. I appreciate your ministry. Thanks, Mr. Bud for the special musical selection... nice work. I hope that the message, "How to be Pro-Life" was helpful to our congregation. It is a very important subject.
I want to thank everyone who put in hard work at the most recent quarterly business meeting. We passed a 2012 Church budget that is very doable and realistic. I want to thank those who worked on it... job well done.
I also want to encourage everyone to get involved in our "Special" Sunday ideas for the entire year. The purpose of these Sunday choices is to create better attendances at the services. Get involved!

Greetings to you all on this sunny and mild winter's day.
PERSONAL NOTE: I want to thank everyone who was part of our Sunday service preparation. We had a great worship service experience. It was also a special blessing to baptize two young men... Ryan Lynk and Joseph Soloman. Our prayers and blessings go with these young men as they continue on their journey. Thank you, Dee Wilson for bringing the special music for us... it was great. Thank you Gene Wiley for getting the baptistery in order for the service. The water temperature was absolutely perfect!

Seek the route of peace... it is the will of God.
