The Way of the Cross
How to become a Christian
Admit that you are a sinner
“For All have sinned and come short of the glory of God”
Romans 3:23
Believe that Jesus died for your sins
“For if you confess with your mouth jesus is lord and believe
in your heart that god raised him from the dead you shall be saved”
Romans 10:9
Commit your life to him
“If any of you wants to be my follower, you must put
aside your selfish ambition, shoulder your cross and follow me.”
Matthew 16:24
Invite Christ into your life and heart today
“For the wages of sin is death but the gift
of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ”
Romans 6:23

September 2010
Dear Family of Families...
We hope that everyone had a good summer and now looking forward to some cooler weather. Our trip down the Ichetucknee was delightful and we wished we could have gone down again, but duty called. It is now time to get back to our jobs and our schools and also our church.
It is easy to get out of the habit of attending Sunday School and church. When people miss they aren’t just missing something that will bless them, they are also missed by those who are there. Sunday School teachers work hard at preparing their lessons. The Music Director works hard to present a worshipful atmosphere. The Pastor studies and prepares to share a message from the Lord. A lot goes into preparing for a worship service.
We have heard some rumors about the downturn of the economy and how it is affecting our church offerings. God has always provided our needs. Psalms 37:25 says, “I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen
the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” Paul said in Philippians 4:6, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.”
In that same chapter Paul gives us this nugget, “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Just remember how big our God is.
He owns all the cattle on a thousand hills and the hills also. Everything belongs to Him and we are the stewards of what He has given us.
As long as we look to the Father and work together we will be blessed.
We have a wonderful church and God is blessing this ministry. Keep looking up for our redemption draws near. Let’s keep on keeping on for the Lord.
In His grace,
Bro. George
Pastor

Hostess Committee
September 2010
The 2009-2010 church year will come to a close and our new year will begin on September 1, 2010. I would be neglectful if I did not give thanks to the members of the Hostess Committee for allowing me to act as their Chairperson. When I agreed to attempt filling this position, Carolyn Cheshire told me that if I would take the job she would “help me in any way”. After this year, I can tell you that if Carolyn tells you she will do something, you can “take it to the bank”. I never did figure out if she was actually ON the committee, but she was right there through every event and activity. Now, that is service and love. Speaking of service and love, your new Hostess Committee looks much like last years, with the addition of Ramona Rabon. Alice McKenney, present Co-Chairperson, Pat Revel, Lorraine Parker and Michelle Poston will be returning this year along with alternates, Vi Payton and Ann Windham. Paulette, thanks for all those trips you took to Sam’s for us this year. Again, many thanks for the help, encouragement and support this year. Seek out a member of your Hostess Committee and just say “thanks” for a job well done. They will appreciate it. Homecoming will be coming up in October. Please keep Kristin and that committee in your thoughts and prayers. If you are asked to help, do it. It will truly be a blessing.
