Reflections- "Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself.  I am the Lord." 

- Leviticus 19:18

        

The Pastor's Perspective

          

VBS- we are having a great week of VBS.  The children are very enthusiastic and having a lot of fun as they learn about God's faithfulness to us.  They have been learning about God's faithfulness from the life of the Old Testament character, Joseph.  Our closing program is tonight.

 

This past Sunday, I am sure you realized that the air conditioning wasn't working.  That was something we were unaware of until that morning.  We are in the process of getting our systems, repaired and up and running.  Hopefully we will be able to have our worship service in the sanctuary this Sunday.  Our back-up plan will be to hold the worship service in the Chapel.

 

           Grace & Peace,

           Dennis
