Jeff Pinney, Pastor PETERSBURG CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE 118 West Pike Ave. Church 812-354-8851 Sunday school at 9:30 a.m.; morning worship and children's church at 10 :30 a.m.; children's and teen ser- vice at 6 p.m.; evening wor- ship at 6 p.m. and Wednes- day prayer service at 6 p.m. Matthew 18:1-14 talks about who will be the great- est in the Kingdom of God. Jesus told the disciples that they needed to be like the lit- tle children. Children have a sense of awe for the Creator and the world around them. Children also have a sense of dependence and know their need of help. Children have a great trust in those around them; we need to have this same kind of trust. We need to humble ourselves as little children.

Independence Day lessons for church life Return to the basics - On July 4, we commemorate the origins of our country. In terms of faith, we also pe- riodically need to hear again the foundational stories of creation, the Israelites, and, of course, Jesus. Honor the gift of freedom - "For freedom Christ has set us free...do not submit again to a yoke of slavery" (Gala- tians 5:1, ESV ). We strive as citizens of God's kingdom to live gladly in the freedom of salvation and share that gift with others. Enjoy community - July 4 is known for picnics, parades and other community gath- erings. Similarly, the church is nourished by coming to- gether for worship, meals and other special events. Be light in the darkness - As fireworks brighten the sky with light and color, the church is called to display the Gospel's unique light in a dark world. Our word dy- namite and the Greek word for power - as in, "You will re- ceive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you" (Acts 1:8) - share a root. Through God's power in us, we share Jesus - dynamically- with oth- ers. Office hours: 9 a.m.-noon, Monday-Friday. Boyd Heldring, Pastor Amy Melhiser, Secretary HUNTINGBURG HOLINESS CHURCH 813 N.

Fun for the whole fam- ily. "America was established not to create wealth but to re- alize a vision, to realize an ideal—to discover and main- tain liberty among men"— Woodrow Wilson. "If my people, who are called by my name, will hum- ble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will he- al their land" (II Chronicles 7:14). As the Fourth of July, In- dependence Day comes around and everyday there after, when you see a past military or present mili- tary person, make sure to thank them for their ser- vice. They are the ones that fight to keep our freedoms that we have here in Amer- ica. If it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have the freedoms we have. Remember God is the one that gave us free- dom. We can choose to ac- cept Him or we can choose to reject Him. Which do you choose? We invite all of you to come and worship with us.
