Greetings!!!

I pray you are all having an incredible week and finding new ways every day to share God’s love with those around you.  Two weeks ago we began filling out our “Top 10 Lists for 2008.”  Who are you going to bring to church with you this year?  There are so many people around us that need to find a place to belong…they can find that place here, in your church.  I encourage you to continue to pray that God will lead you to the right people at the right time.

This Sunday, we will continue in our series: I Love My Church!  Join us this week as we discover why we need each other.  You are not going to want to miss one week of this series. 

I hope to see you all at one of our weekend services (9:30 & 11:00).

Blessings,

Pastor Virgil
