This week I am challenging our congregation to join with me as we follow the instructions of 1 Peter 5:6 "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble".    As we humble ourselves before God he has promised to show us his grace.  So, let's do it, let's become humble before the Lord!  Tell God you cannot make it on your own and you need his help, ask for his grace, tell him you are sorry for your sins and failures, and that you thank him for helping you.  The promise of God is that as we humble ourselves in his presence, he will show us grace!
      Let's do it!

       Everyone at First Assembly wants to express their sincere appreciation to all the fathers who are working to make their family a home that honors God.  You are appreciated, valued, and prayed for!

      This week I am asking our congregation to think back to times in which the Lord "gave us a little more time".   As you recall these situations, I ask that you give thanks to the Lord for his help during troubled times.   Also, as you remember the Lord's help in the past, let it serve as an encouragement that God will help you in present or future  situations.  
God bless,
Pastor Jeff Carico

      Thank you to everyone who made this past Sunday's "Friends and Family Day" a great success!   I appreciate all of your hard work!
        I would like to remind us that every Sunday is a good Sunday to bring your friends and family to church.  I am always agreeing with you in prayer as you make the effort to bring new people to our church.   That is the secret to growth in the Kingdom of God:  people bringing people.   
       May God bless you and continue to have his hands upon you!
