Thank you so much for your efforts in Vacation Bible School! What a blessing to see so many lives touched with the Gospel.
You were up before dawn and started your day.
You sped off to work as is always the way.
But this week is different, there's no time for errands run.
The chores at home will have to wait or just go undone.
The laundry piles up and so does the dust.
Things that are usually important, this week just aren't a must.
It's because this week is VBS!

Please be in prayer for the Youth as they participate in Youth Camp. Pray that many meaningful decisions will be made. On Sunday afternoon, July 23, there will be a special lunch and concert for Guatemala. We plan to take a group this December to do ministry during the Christmas season. This effort will help many children the rest of this year. Please get your reservation tickets starting this Sunday.
Don’t miss the Sunday evening series this summer – Topics Too Hot to Touch. I look forward to a great day on Sunday!

Prov. 31:30. Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
Who can take the place of a mother? During the last world war, a wounded American soldier was taken to a hospital in England. There, in a large ward, that boy lay, sick and dying. And, in his delirium, the boy began to cry for his mother: ‘Mother, mother, mother.’ And,
behold, his mother came in and stroked the hair of the boy, kissed his fevered brow, held his trembling hand and the boy grew quiet and still in the presence of his mother and died. And, the nurse in the ward, standing there, wide-open eyed, listening, when the boy expired, looked and said: ‘What a miracle! You, his mother.’ And, the dear woman replied, ‘No, sweet nurse, I am not his real mother. As I was walking down the hallway, I heard him cry, ‘Mother, mother’ and, for just a moment, I took her place. (Criswell)
Thank you Mothers! We look forward to honoring you this Sunday!
