Grace and peace to you all. I hope you are doing well this morning and that Christ fills your cup today. Indeed, may you drink the cup of Christ, the cup of his love and blessing and Spirit all day, rather than the cup the world offers. See Rev 17 if you need understanding on what I am talking about. Don't forget …
- Mr. Briggs arrangements for the week.
- Please keep praying for Kay Jones who is still in the ICU at Skyline.
- Youth fundraiser this Sunday after church — spaghetti lunch. Donations appreciated!
- We need folks to sign up for our mission trips to Boston and Scotland. See me if you have questions. I promise you that you will be glad you went.
- Bunco tonight with our ladies at Amanda Gilbert's house.

Six Questions about the Calling of the Twelve … I wonder what questions you might have.
I've Never Felt Like God's Enemy … what does it mean that a lost person is at enmity with God? And what if you were saved at an early age? This ties well with what we have looked at in the book of Revelation.
35 Steps to Raising Readers … can't remember if I have already posted this but found it very helpful and important. Remember, we are a Book-people.

“We must wrestle earnestly in prayer, like men contending with a deadly enemy for life.” [J. C. Ryle — read Luke 18 to see it.]
