      Yesterday I continued the sermon series "God Bless America".  As we draw close to the July 4th weekend I encourage each of us to take time daily to pray for our nation.  It is important that God hear the voice of his people!  I encourage you to read and pray the words of II Chronicles 7:14:
 "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.."
      We also honored the fathers of our congregation.  We appreciate all the fathers of our congregation as they seek to serve the Lord in their family.  God bless you!

      Yesterday I began a sermon series entitled "God Bless America".   This sermon series will conclude on Sunday, July 1 in celebration of Independence Day weekend.  Psalm 103 tells us of the loving character of God.  As a nation humbles itself and seeks the Lord, that nation shall find the favor of God!
      As we move toward the Independence Day weekend I ask that you join with me in daily prayer for our nation.   We need God.   If we will seek him, we shall find him!

     Yesterday we celebrated Memorial Day weekend with an emphasis on the importance of the church in the life of a nation.  Jesus told us that we are the salt of the earth and the light of the world.  Wow, that is amazing!
     America is depending upon it's churches to teach, preach and live the Word of God.  Without it, we are without salt and light as a nation!  We can't let that happen!
Amen.

      Yesterday I concluded the sermon series "Our Journey To Pentecost" with the celebration of Pentecost Sunday.  For 21 centuries the church has existed and thrived!  The birth of the New Testament church that began on the Day of Pentecost recorded in the Book of Acts, chapter 2, is alive and well!
       Praise God!

      Sunday I will continue the sermon series "Our Journey To Pentecost".  Fifty days separated the Jewish festivals of Passover and Pentecost.  We have taken this 50 day journey together, from Easter (April 1) to Pentecost Sunday (May 20).  We have journey through the crucifixion, resurrection, resurrection appearances for 40 days, ascension, waiting in Jerusalem in the upper room, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit!  
       I invite you to join us this Sunday for Pentecost Sunday Celebration!
See you Sunday!

   Sunday I will continue the sermon series "Our Journey To Pentecost".  Following the 40 day period of resurrection appearances Jesus gather with his believers on the Mount Of Olives and ascended into Heaven.  Prior to his ascension Jesus commanded his followers to remain in the city of Jerusalem for the promise of the Holy Spirit.  When the day of the Pentecost festival arrived the Holy Spirit was given.  (Acts 2).
         This journey is recorded in the later part of the Gospels and the first 2 chapters of the Book of Acts.  I invite you to come and take the journey with us!
