A Note from the Preacher…Larry Sweeney

        Thanks to everyone who helped make another Friend's Day a wonderful success. Any good work always requires a lot of people doing a lot of good things. I am grateful that we have so many willing and able to participate and help wherever needed. Thanks again!
        By the way, I want to remind you that this most recent Friend's Day was the third such event this year. I also want to emphasize the positive attendance results. In January, the attendance to our Sunday morning worship was 124. In May, the attendance was 120. Last Sunday, the attendance was 104. I am always encouraged by the number of visitors, and the spirit of joy that surrounds our worship and fellowship meal. Whether it is through a Friend's Day or some other opportunity for outreach, we must continue to “plant and water” and allow “God to give the increase.” --Larry

HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT YOUR SOUL?

Have you ever stopped to wonder
What this life is all about?
Why you're here and where you're going.
When your lease on time runs out?
Maybe you've been far too busy
Trying hard to reach your goal;
Would you let me ask you kindly,
Have you thought about your soul?

You may reach the highest portals,
And your dreams may all come true;
Wealth and fame may be your portion,
And success may shine on you,
All your friends may sing your praises,
Not a care on you may roll;
What about the great tomorrow
Have you thought about your soul?

Don't forget your days are numbered,
Though you may be riding high,
But like all of us poor mortals,
Someday you'll just up and die.
Your success and fame and glory
Won't be worth the bell they toll;
Let me ask you just one question,
Have you thought about your soul?

If you've never thought it over,
Spend a little time today,
There is nothing more important,
That will ever come your way
Than the joy of sins forgiven,
And to know you've been made whole,
In the name of Christ the Savior
Have you thought about your soul? (Bulletin Briefs)
