It’s springtime! Daylight hours are longer. Yellow bells, azaleas, and dogwoods are about to bloom. This time of year, many folks engage in a little spring cleaning. But maybe your home needs more than a little cleaning. Maybe you are ready for a little home improvement.
And by home improvement, I mean “home” improvement. There is a difference in a house and a home. A house is made of bricks and mortar. A home is constructed with faith and love. Both, however, require upkeep and maintenance.
We live in a culture that emphasizes the size of the house rather than the quality of the home. But as followers of Jesus, we are in the home-building business.
This Sunday in Bible study, we are looking at the importance of Family. In worship, I will be talking about “The Most Trusted Name in Home Improvement.” When it comes to marriage and family, we need to make sure we are living by the book. To prepare for this Sunday, I encourage you to read Genesis 2:18-25 and Ephesians 5:21-33.
We also look forward to sharing moments of Parent/Child Dedication with three families in each of our worship services this Sunday.
Don’t forget that on March 27 we will be studying the meaning of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. We will end each service that day by celebrating the Lord’s Supper. And our deacons will be serving the Lord’s Supper to our homebound members on Sunday afternoon. We will celebrate baptism at the beginning of the midmorning service. If someone in your family has recently made a commitment to Christ and they are ready for baptism, contact one of our ministers or Elizabeth Smith in the pastor’s office to begin preparing for the baptism.
