Thank the Lord for another great worship time in the Lord this morning. The Sunday School staff, and the Praise and Worship team did a great job. We thank the Lord for a great time in His presence. People were rejoicing and lifting up the Lord Jesus Christ. We are a church who believes in lifting up our Savior and Lord! He said, "If I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto me." The message today, "The Cross - The Power of God," was taken from the text "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." 1 Corinthians 1:18 He was lifted up between heaven and earth and we lift him up in our worship, our lives and our service. We pray those who don't know Him in our families and neighborhood will find Him - the Savior of all men.

After church this morning, Brother Jimmie and Sister Virginia Davis invited us to eat out with them. We enjoyed the fellowship with them and his mother, Sister Willodene Davis. These folks have been a great blessing to Karen, Jason and I since they started attending about 2 years ago. Thank God for people who love the Lord and desire to be used in the kingdom of God. Brother Jimmie and his Son, Jeff are completing their Bachelor's Degrees in business from Bethel College and are on tract to graduate in May 2008. Great work men!

Another great time in the Lord was very evident in our evening service. Several came tonight anticipating a great time of worship. The praise, the worship, the testimonies, the WORD, the offering - every part of the service was to lift up our King. What a great time in the Lord. The prayer life of Jesus was emphasized in the message tonight. We ended the service joined in a prayer circle to lift up the names of our family and friends to the Lord. We are seeking God for a time of revival and outreach.
