Thought for the Day

As I was reading today I read Deuteronomy 3:22 "Do not be afraid of them; the Lord your God himself will fight for you." What are 'them' well in the case of Joshua it was the kingdoms that he was going into, for us it can be anything. What are you up against in your life right now? Is it work, bills, family etc. the list can go on and on. Take the words of God and find rest in them this day, don't be afraid God himself will fight for you, who else would you want to be fighting for you?

More posting?

Well it has been some time since I put up a post. So I am going to try to post more and keep any and all up to date with what is going on at the church and with Noah. If I can do this over the summer I will be on my way to keeping this up to date. The church has now started a lunch program that is during the summer, it is for any one that is 18 and under. It is Tue. and Wed. 12- 1pm here at the church, the best part is that it is free. Also we have a new kitchen and nursery so if you have not seen it I guess that means you need to come by and check it out. Also this month of July we are inviting people to come out to church, you don't have to drag them through the door just invite them and pray about them, but make sure you come as well so that you can be here and see those that come through the door, you never know maybe it will be someone that you have not seen in awhile.

What is going on?

Here are pictures of what is taking place in the downstairs of the church:

What a happy boy, he brings so many smiles to our faces

This week Amy and I got Noah's blood test back, and found out that he has the type of M.D. of Becker's which is the slower progressing of the two types he could have had. We are very thankful to the Lord for this allows him to be able to walk longer and gives him and us more time to pray that they find a cure for this. From this and being at the hospital this morning at 4am with a family I have a strong feeling to tell you that are ready this that being a 'good person' does not get one into heaven only by accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior does this. It is by faith in Christ that saves us not by anything that we do but but by the work of Christ on the cross. As you read this I don't know where you are at you my have things going on with your children, you may be in the hospital or have family there, you may be going through something hard and painful but know this that God is in control and that His ways are higher then ours and more then that He knows what He is doing. So I encourage you today turn to Jesus and find whatever it is that you are looking for in life in Him.

KIelbasa Festival

The church just took part in the town festival this past weekend and we had a great time handing out almost 500 things on salvation and about our church here in Plymouth. I thank every one that helped out with it. Keep praying for the many people that we had the chance to talk to. And it is time to get fired up for the youth groups this week.

Who Took Your Place?

I came across this I thought some would like it.
One Day, A Man Went To Visit A Church.He Got There Early, Parked His Car And Got Out.Another Car Pulled Up Nearby And The Driver Got Out And Said, "I Always Park There!! ?You Took My Place!!!"The Visitor Went Inside For Sunday School, Found An Empty Seat And Sat Down.A Young Lady From The Church Approached Him And stated, "That's My Seat!!! ?You Took My Place!!!"The Visitor Was Somewhat Distressed By This Rude Welcome, But Said Nothing.After Sunday School, The Visitor Went Into The Sanctuary And Sat Down. ?Another Member Walked Up To Him And Said, "That's Where I Always Sit!!! ?You Took My Place!!!"The Visitor Was Even More Troubled By This Treatment, But Still He Said Nothing.Later, As The Congregation Was Praying For Christ To Dwell Among Them, The Visitor Stood Up, And His Appearance Began To Change.Horrible Scars Became Visible On His HandsAnd On His Sandaled Feet.Someone From The Congregation Noticed HimAnd Called Out,"What Happened To You?" The Visitor Replied, As His Hat Became A Crown Of Thorns, And A Tear Fell From His Eye,"I Took Your Place." When You Receive This,Say A Prayer.That's All You Have To Do.There Is Nothing Attached.This Is Powerful. Maybe, Just Maybe, We Can Get The WorldTo Start Thinking of Who Took Our Place.

Let us use our lives to tell people who took their place!

Game Night

At the church we have what we call game night. We have people come over to the church and we play games and eat food, well it is the other way around we eat then play games then eat again. Everyone has fun during this time. Last night someone brought the Wii, which is a video game system. With this system you move and the sensor picks up the movement. On this game you can go bowling, so that is what we did. Carl and I played and thought that we did a good job for the first time. So we played again and got destroyed by Carl's son Matt. The best part is that my arm hurts today, I don't know how Carl's arm feels today. I don't know what hurts more the arm or the fact that we got beat by a 6 year old.
