A man had a heart attack and was told that his arteries were almost totally blocked and he would need open-heart bypass surgery. As he was being wheeled toward the operating room, he asked his surgeon, “Can you fix my heart?”
The surgeon replied, “I sure can!” As he was awaking in the recovery room following the twelve hour surgery, the man asked the doctor, “How much blood supply do I now have?”
“All you will ever need,” was the simple answer.
Upon his discharge, the man's wife inquired
of the doctor, “What about my husband's future quality of life?”
The doctor paused and said, “I fixed his heart; his quality of life is up to him.”
All of us were spiritually dead in our transgressions. (Ephesians 2:1) But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ. (2:4-5) In other words, He fixed our hearts. What we could never do for ourselves, God did for us when He sent His Son to take our place on the cross. All we have to do is to open our hearts to receive His wonderful gift.
But from there, the quality with which we live our Christian lives depends greatly on our commitment to serve the Lord and obey His commandments. Ephesians 4:22-24 goes on to say, “You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”
May we be so grateful for the new life we have been given that we live it with quality and integrity. Lord, help us daily to crucify the flesh and to live by the Spirit.
With love, Pastor Scott
Here at SRBC we collect a Fellowship Offering on the 3rd Sunday of every month. This offering is used for emergency needs and financial assistance for those in need. This has been a great ministry of our church through the years, and we just want to remind you that we are continuing to collect this offering. There is a basket marked Fellowship Fund on the communion table, or you may send in your offering specified as Fellowship Fund. We still focus on the offering on the 3rd Sunday, but you may give at any time.

Phillip and Rebecca Wei are serving Washington D C in ministry with two different parts of Cru.
The first is Epic, a ministry focused on reaching Asian-American Americans many of whom grew up in church but drifted away as they attended college. Their hope is use their expertise from working with international students to reach this unique group of people.
The second is Design, a ministry for South-Asian Americans. Design is very new, and only has around 14 staff across the U S. Rebecca will be able to use her experience in South Asia to help develop a movement at the University of Maryland. Philip will also be researching working with refugees. All of these groups are under reached and Philip and Rebecca are excited to see how God will use us.
