Welcome
CELEBRATE THE MIRACLE OF
CHRIST'S CRUCIFIXION
April 2, 2023
Joe Ligon has just been released from prison after serving for 68 years! In 1953 he was convicted along with four other teens for robbing and stabbing victims who died. He said that he had stabbed someone, but had not killed. He was 15 years old, and was convicted along with the other teens for life imprisonment. However, the Supreme Court recently ruled that imprisoning a child for life is unconstitutional. Therefore, Joe has been released. On CBS news he said, “Freed outright. Thank you, Jesus!”
Thank you, Jesus? He showed no bitterness. He said, “There’s nothing I can do about the past. I hope my future will be better.”
We can learn from Joe. No matter what has happened, we can thank Jesus, and determine to lose all bitterness about the past, and look forward to a better future with Jesus, a future that will last forever!
Let’s take advantage of the suffering we experience to be a witness for Jesus, like Joe Ligon.
Sunday I’m preaching on “Witness When Times Are Tough,” from Acts 16:22-34 where Paul and Silas were imprisoned in Philippi. We’ll talk about “Be Ready for Tough Times,” verses 22-24; “Praise God in Tough Times,” verse 25; “Be Delivered from Tough Times,” verse 26; and “See Conversions Multiply,” verses 27-34.
Let’s start inviting people to our Good Friday service April 7, at 5:00. I’ll portray John as we have the Lord’s Supper and talk about “Commitment in the Garden.” And let’s invite people to Sunday School and worship on Easter. We have some marvelous tracts to help us. You can pick them up in the foyer.
Love,
Jim Meek

VBS - SAVE THE DATE - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Spin the spinner, beat the clock, skip ahead, level up, and play to win! Twists & Turns™ is a fantastical celebration of games of all kinds. From classic tabletop games to strategy games to video games and more, kids will play their way through VBS in fun locations such as the Bible Study Game Room, Wild Card Crafts, Multi-player Missions, and Skip Ahead Snacks! But more importantly, they’ll see Jesus through the eyes of one of His closest friends and discover that trusting Jesus as Savior and following Him changes the game entirely!
Don’t miss out on the fun or this opportunity to share how Jesus guides us through all the twists and turns of our lives. He helps us know His ways and teaches us His paths (Psalm 25:4). Following Jesus changes everything and you can be a part of His work this summer!
