Good Morning,
We had a wonderful service on Sunday. It was great seeing all of that orange floating around. A big shout out to the cooks and servers. As always our Pastor he is always on "Fire". My guests really appreciated you all!!!!
Even on Memorial Day, as we look back, let us look forward.
We are each, by His design,
the blessing of God yet to reach our full potential in Him.
As He has given us much to recall, so will He give us
much to achieve through peace and service; through duty and responsibility,
through obedience and sacrifice.
Yes, we have, in our pasts, through our relationships known love.
We have lost loved ones and friends.
We have buried some of our inner most treasures through our sorrows and disappointments.
And along the way some of our dreams have died and so,
we do know what it is like to mourn and yet,
move forward lamenting;
but let us now recommit to our focus
what we can achieve when we move forward in His expectation,
live in His hope; aspire to His call with purpose,
work toward pleasing Him by helping others
and move forward trusting God, believing in Him,
as our living Testament...
A living and active memorial in and for all time
for in Him,
"we live and breathe and have our being"
and in Him.....
we are
BLESSED.
