LOVE FAMILY
February 12, 2023
Miss Willie Joyner works in the cafeteria at Catholic University, Washington, D.C. She says she has a gift of hospitality from God. She thinks of herself as the mom to the students and faculty who eat there. She hugs them, and asks them where they’ve been if they’ve been absent. After graduation many of the students come back to say hi, showing pictures of their family. She also greets the children of students who’ve become students. The school just celebrated her 50th anniversary of work at the university. They even named a new dining room after her. She pours joy and love into her university family! How much more should we love our biological family?
Sunday I’m preaching on “Love Family,” from Genesis 45:1-15. I’ll talk about “Love Passionately,” verses 1-4; “Love with Forgiveness,” verses 5-8; and “Love through Deeds,” verses 9-15. This the beautifully told story of Joseph. Singles, married people and youth will be blessed by this passage, but let’s do what we can to get families to attend.
Women, don’t forget the breakfast this Saturday at 9:00.
Love,
Jim Meek

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!
We need volunteers! Please click on the graphic below to volunteer to work with us in VBS this year!
