Hello Church,

Some may know that my mother has been battling serious illness. Her latest struggle has been with leukemia. After she started chemotherapy, pneumonia set in that has been difficult to control. Up to six antibiotics at a time tried to work its magic, but mom is tired and has asked to go home to die. We will be taking her home today, and allow God and family to care for her. She is at peace and stated that Christ would receive her. Such faith is worth more than any treasure in this world. When you come to the end of your life, what will you say? Perhaps world conditions can serve as a wake up call and bring each one of us to the place where we are at peace no matter what comes our way.
How Do You Read? No we are not referring to your reading skills in general, but your Bible reading skills? Last Sabbath Pastor David Williams shared deep insight into God's word. Are you able to understand the deep things of God? This Sabbath, at 2:00 pm, we will begin a journey into God's word. Pastor Victor will lead this journey, and show you how to understand God's word, and how you can share the beautiful truths of the Bible with others. Don't miss this important Seminar.
This Saturday evening we are having a second finance seminar. The last one we had was a great success, and a number of people asked us for a follow up. If you are interested in taxes, retirement, or family budgeting, you will have a reason to attend.

A week from now we will meet for our Church Business Meeting to discuss and make a decision on an organ for the church. I trust that you are taking time to read through the report given. Please feel free to call me with any questions or comments regarding the report or the organ decision. I do not have a personal agenda here, other than to see a good process where we as a people can make a decision that is good for this church.

Have you been following the news of earthquakes in various places? Some scientist state that there is no increase in earthquakes, just better reporting. It is possible that they are right, but I cannot help but think of Matthew 24:7 where Jesus warned us that we would notice the number of earthquakes taking place in various places. These may just be events, but these may also serve as a reminder to us, that we might reflect on our own experience and relationship with Jesus. How do these earthquakes affect you? Have we placed Jesus first in our life? Are you ready to meet Him?

Tomorrow, we have a good guest with us. Elder Van Hurst, our conference president, will be our speaker. Make sure you attend and make this a special reason to come to church. We will also be blessed to witness a baptism.

Have a very blessed Sabbath and I look forward to seeing you in church.
