Clarence in July

Clarence in July
Howdy, Folks,
It’s your happy church mouse again, and, man, am I excited about our Church. We have had 9 baptisms this year and 50 since Truman and Justin have been here. Man, that sure is great. Great because we as a church are doin' what our Lord commanded us to do and because Peggy Sue says that the spirit in the Church is really good.
Along with all the baptisms, we have had 19 people place their membership this year. A lot of this is because of all our “greeters.” The best thing we do is greet people when they walk into our church. This includes our regular members. Our greeters make everyone feel welcome, and everyone gets started worshipin' in a happy atmosphere.
We had a great swim party over the 4th of July weekend, which everyone enjoyed.
You know, folks, being happy and enjoyin' life is how we show the lost that we have the love of Christ in us.
Our new Sunday school program is going great. We had almost 150 who came to study God's word. We need to thank God for all the great teachers we have.
I guess I could go on and on, but I only have so much space in the newsletter, so I guess that’s it for now.
I thank God for all my church family, and I pray that we continue as we are or maybe do better.
Remember all those who need our prayers, Truman, Justin, missionaries, teachers, Church leaders, and our country.
Don’t forget to lead at least one person to Christ in 2014.
Remember Peggy Sue loves you and so do I.
Blessin’s,
Clarence

P.S. Vernon Lawson and Katy Maurer turned 90 recently. Be sure to thank them for their many years of service.
