We would LIVING FAITH CHURCH INTERNATIONAL 718 E. Main Street, Petersburg Phone: 812-809-4544 Sunday services are at 10 a.m. and youth service Tues- days at 6:15 p.m. Consider the kind of extrav- agant love the Father has lav- ished on us—He calls us chil- dren of God. It's true—we are His beloved children. And in the same way the world didn't recognize Him, the world doesn't recognize us either. When we feel like we are not good enough to be loved by God, we should remember that God's love is greater than our doubts. We must silence the sounds of condemnation, so we can hear the voice of God's loving assurance and remember that He has select- ed us to be part of His family. My loved ones, we have been adopted into God's family; and we are officially His children now. The full picture of our destiny is not yet clear, but we know this much: when Jesus appears, we will be like Him because we will see Him just as He is.

Sermon Series: "Ordinary people God used in extra-or- dinary ways." Sermon Title: "Moses." Scripture reading: Exo- dus 4:10 -14. Theme Statement: In an age of celebrity worship, there is a great need to el- evate the ordinary peo- ple who worship and serve God. Moses was faithfully tending his father-in-law's sheep when God selected him to serve. God contin- ues to use ordinary people in extra-ordinary ways. There are three qualities God used in Moses.

SR 56 in Bowman 812-582-8896 Sunday morning worship 9 a.m.; Sunday school 10 :15 a.m. We are exploring the words in Philippians 4:4-9 and how they can help us thrive in chaos.

But praise God, "But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things will be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33). What things will be add- ed? God's order back into our lives—a peace that pass- es all understanding—He is in control. ZOAR U.M. CHURCH 8818 W.

God loves and cares for everyone, and we as a church need to have a good worldview like Him. We need to have a relationship with Jesus ourselves and fel- lowship with other believers. We need to be reaching out to and praying for those in our sphere of influence who do not know Jesus.
