A Personal Note               

Easter has come and passed. We have been working on Easter the whole year, the last month and a half almost exclusively! This year, like every year, our people worked hard on Easter preparation by preparing themselves spiritually and then by inviting other people to come to church with them on Easter and it showed.

We had one of our largest crowds ever and we had very spiritual services! After processing all the response cards that were turned in, Wesley and I have 30 decisions that we have to respond to, from church membership, questions about salvation, and salvation/baptism. We just praise God for each decision and the part that all of you played in making it possible!

Now, with the remainder of spring, we want to stress consistency in worship attendance, Sunday School, and discipleship! We want to finish the semester strong!

Then, of course, we will go into the summer and two of our most evangelistic events, VBS and Youth Camp.

This is a big part of the year, but it doesn’t come without many distractions! Spring break, ball schedules, and many more things start popping up on people’s schedules, and all these things compete for people’s time, energy, and affection.

We must stay the course and be consistent from January until the end of May to accomplish the things we are most passionate about, worship, discipleship, and salvations!

I feel like we did that this year to the best of our ability, and the results are there to prove it. All the glory goes to the Father! We’ll work til Jesus comes! Hope to see you each Wednesday and Sunday! You’ll be better for it, and your family will be better for it!

God Bless You!
