Pastor’s Corner…

I recently read this passage from Acts 4:32-35   “All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all that there were no needy persons among them.” When I read that I began to ponder what would happen if we lived like that today.  What if we gave of our own abundance to someone who had a need that we heard about?  What if we gave to others anonymously?

Here is my challenge to us all.  Let’s keep our ears and eyes open to someone God would lead us to give to.  Perhaps you hear of a young person moving into their first apartment.  What can you offer them?  An extra lamp you have?  Baking dishes from your kitchen?  Do you know someone who loves to knit or crochet and you know that you will never use the yarn you have?  Give it away!  When we live as if our possessions are not our own, but ours to share, we will discover that less really is more.

Kid’s Connection

This year the theme for VBS is Mission to Mars (Meet ARisen Savior) with a fun space/astronaut theme.  Volunteers are needed to make this a successful fun event for children.

On Wednesday night during the summer adults will be sharing their hobbies with the kids in Caravan’s.  They will also have a campfire on August 31.
