CHURCH Sunday school 9:30; morn- prayer list, the shut-ins and our lost loved ones. Often we move quickly and make decisions without consulting our Lord Jesus and what He would have us decide to do. We forget we are representing Him in all we do and say. A friend's sal- vation might be tied to our decisions. They are watch- ing our walk and our talk, wanting to see just how well we represent the Savior we claim to follow. "Let your light so shine be- about him. Jesus was their Savior and their message. They preached Jesus Christ and him crucified, not for the lack of another topic, but be- cause they couldn't exhaust this one. What unlocked the doors of the apostles' hearts? Sim- ple. They saw Jesus! They encountered the Christ! Their sins collided with their Savior and their Savior won! And because Jesus won, we have son! Praise His Holy Name! We are having many up- coming activities, so come and be a part of a great church where serving Je- sus is exciting. For questions or more in- fore men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heav- en" (Mark 5:16).
