Howdy,
Folks,
To start with I want to tell you what
a swell time Peggy Sue and I had at the pool party. We saw Lynn Edwards and
Steve Churchill doin’ some kind of jig or, I guess, some kind of dance. Then
Bob Guarino asked Ron Tubbs if he was ridin’ a chicken or if those were his
legs. Ha Ha! Anyway, a good time was had by all.
We have a wonderful Church family, and
Peggy Sue and I are thrilled to be a part of Villa Heights.
I heard the Elders talkin’ about gettin’
someone to take over Koinonia lunches. Gay and Chuck Whorlow have done it for
many years. They need a break, and we owe them a big “Thank You.” So, folks,
let them know you appreciate what they have done. You know it’s time for the
younger folks to step up and start relievin’ some of the older folks, because
you are the future of Villa Heights. James says, “Faith without works is dead.”
We need to make a commitment to be in Church every Sunday mornin’ to worship
the Lord and get involved in movin’ the Church forward.
Since last month our prayer list is shorter;
God has answered our many requests. But we still need to pray for our Church
family. I was scootin’ around the classrooms, and I heard the Elders talkin' about our finances. Seems that the flood in the basement and the roof leaks
have drained our money down. You see our buildin’ has some years on it, and it
needs maintenance. Folks, our buildin’ belongs to all of us, and it’s our
responsibility to take care of it. It’s not just the Elders’ worry. So, folks,
pray about that and give a little extra if possible. Well, folks, that’s enough
for this month. Pray for Truman, Justin, Jacob, and Zoey. God has surely
blessed us with a wonderful staff. Best we ever had accordin' to Peggy Sue.
Pray for Steve Bycroft’s visas for his kids. Pray for our country and the laws
they are makin’ that go against God’s laws. It’s time for us as Christians to
take a stand and speak against the things that are against Our God, no matter
what party we belong to. “See you in church.”
Blessin’s,
Clarence
