Love From Your Pastor

…yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist. (1 Corinthians 8:6)

What a great reminder from the apostle Paul!  Let us keep our focus on what is essential in our lives.  We have one God and one Lord.  We exist for the Father and through the Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.  May all of our lives revolve around our relationship with the One true and living God!
This Sunday I will be speaking on Revelation 19:1-10.  Please read that in advance.  May it move us to praise the Lord (the meaning of “Hallelujah”) as we consider the four “hallelujahs” in this passage!  May we exult in the promise of the coming marriage supper of the Lamb!
Also this Sunday, we will be sharing the communion table together.  A great reminder is found in 1 Corinthians 11:23-29.  Let us examine ourselves in preparation for the Lord’s Supper.
 
Sunday is also promotion day for Sunday School.  Kids will be moving up to the next grade level of classes.  If you haven’t been in the habit of coming and bringing your family to Sunday School, this would be a perfect time to start!  See you at 9am Sunday!
Sunday night at 5:30pm is the spaghetti fundraiser for the high school class, raising funds for a trip to the NW Youth Conference in Portland in November.  Thank you for all of your generosity already!  Come join us for a great meal!
If you (or your child) are interested in our baptism in October, please let me or Doris Trimble or Alice Tetamore know.  If you are interested in membership at FBC, I will be hosting a class on a Sunday afternoon in October as well.  Talk to me to let me know if you want to join us!
Existing through the Lord Jesus Christ and for God the Father…
Love From Your Pastor,
