STEWARDSHIP SENTENCE: Matthew 20:9 – “And when those hired about the eleventh hour came, each of them received a denarius.” Behold the generosity of God! He gives out of His grace, not what we deserve to receive. Living a godly life means living in imitation of God — and surely one of the foundations of God’s being is His generosity.
VBS DIRECTOR NEEDED: Jeanette has served as director of VBS for many years and is retiring this year. Our church appreciates her dedication to our church and the children of our community. We are in need of a new director. Jeanette will gladly help the new director get started with planning and applying for the Webster Grant this fall. Please contact Jeanette Foster if you would be willing to serve.
