C-2 Church Wednesday, July 26, 2017 The Press-Dispatch Baptist SOMETHING NEWSWORTHY? Give us a call: 812-354-8500 Continued in next column "A cats eyes are win- dows enabling us to see into another world"— Irish Legend. We look into his eyes, and we know there's more to him than ears, nose, fur and toes. There is the mystery of life. This week PAWS is featuring a mysterious, young cat named Boo, who is a short haired tabby with soft black fur, is neutered, has all his shots, has striking golden eyes, that quick- ly draw one's attention to this stately feline. He is very cordial, inquisitive and would make an awe- some companion. Boo can be adopted for $ 30, by calling PAWS at 812-354-9894. PAWS WEEK PAWS WEEK Pet of the BOO Continued from page 1 Continued on page 3 All times are CDT Church of Christ Independent Independent Catholic Christian al sanctuary (our body), or safe place, of the holy spirit with worldly things through- out the week. We have to be very careful to care for the sanctuary that God has giv- en us and fill it with things that honor the Lord. Mt. Olive has many op- portunities to grow in and worship Jesus Christ. Join us at any of our services or events. Come as you are. We welcome everyone. Alex Benefiel, Pastor Crystal Benefiel, Reporter MT. PISGAH G.B. CHURCH (Augusta) Broadway Street Winslow Pastor 812-582-0756 Sunday morning worship at 10 :15 a.m., children's church during morning ser- vice; Sunday morning, after worship service we will be having Communion; Cele- brate Recovery a 5 p.m. at the Gathering Place in Win- slow; Wednesday night Bi- ble study at 6:30 p.m. Second Wednesday of the month at 6:30 p.m. business meeting. "The Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome but kind to every one" (II Timothy 2:24). Jesus was a gentle and compassionate person. When He came into the world, there were few hos- pitals, few places for refuge for the poor, few homes for orphans. There were no hos- pitals to treat the mentally ill, no shelters for the home- less. In comparison to today, it was a cruel world. Christ changed all that. He healed the sick, fed the hungry, and opened the eyes of the blind. He commanded His disciples, "Love your neigh- bor as yourself" (Matthew 19:19), and taught them to observe what we have come to know as the Golden Rule: "In everything, do unto oth- ers what you would have them do unto you" (Mat- thew 7:12). Wherever true Christianity has gone, His followers have performed acts of kindness, love and gentleness. If at any time you have no church to attend, feel free to join us for services. I'm sure you will leave feeling blessed. Jerry "Tuffy" Blackwell, Pastor Sharon Kendall, Reporter NEW LIBERTY G.B. CHURCH (Coe) 1820 S. Co Rd. 800 S.

Rd. 75 N. Petersburg Pastor 812-789-2348 Sunday morning service 10 :30 a.m. Everyone is al- ways welcome. "Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord" (Psalm 31:24 K JV ). "The Lord is my shep- herd; I shall not want. He ma- keth me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me be- side the still waters. He re- storeth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteous- ness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a ta- ble before me in the pres- ence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Sure- ly goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever" (Psalm 23, K JV ). Remember to pray for those on the prayer list.
