PASTOR’S PARAGRAPHS:
One Sunday morning, little Alex stared at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church. The seven-year-old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so Pastor McGhee walked up, stood beside the boy, and said quietly, “Good morning, Alex.”
“Good morning,” said the boy, still absorbed in the plaque. “Pastor McGhee, what is this?”
“Well, son, all of these people have died in the Service,” the pastor said.
Soberly they stood together, staring at the large plaque.
Then little Alex asked quietly, “Which one, the morning service or the evening service?”
To a seven-year old boy, going to two church services in one day might be enough to make you die of boredom! But to a growing Christian, it might be that which adequately equips you for the challenges of the coming week. We do our best to plan worship services that will inspire and encourage you to worship and serve the Lord. I invite you to partake in both services. And if you happen to pass away in one of them, what better place to be when that happens!
Hope to see you Sunday morning and evening!
With love, Pastor Scott
