Missionary Visit
Dale & Vicki Bishop from Youth for Christ, in Detroit, will be with us Sunday March 8th. Also, their sons, Peter and Joshua who serve alongside them in the ministry will be here. The Bishop’s will be sharing during the morning service and during Sunday School in Kent’s class and the High School Class.
Dale and Vicki work together in the ministry of Youth for Christ in Detroit, Michigan. YFC works with young people from all faith backgrounds and has faithfully served the youth since 1944. Through the years, the Bishops have successfully worked with troubled and at-risk youth in urban areas. They focus on five developmental areas of the lives of young people – social, mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual. They communicate the life-changing message of Jesus Christ by building positive relationships with young people and their families through Caring Christian Adults.
Family Meeting
Bring a dish or two to pass and your own table service. The intent of the meeting is to provide an opportunity for discussing topics as a group outside of the annual business meeting. There are no agenda items; there will not be a vote on any topic. Your fellow bondservants look forward to your input so we can serve together with God’s blessing and honor Him to the best of our ability. Comment forms will be available on the window ledge if you would like to provide any thoughts in advance.

The Heavens Declare The Glory Of God
Psalms 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
8 The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
