Dear Church Family and Friends,

It was a fantastic week of VBS! Thank you to all who prayed, participated, and served! 

The children learned this important verse from Psalm 95:6-7 that the Lord is our maker, we are His sheep and we are to bow down and worship Him! Of course, this is a truth for all of us, not just children. 

Please pray for fruit from this week. Pray that the children who attended will grow spiritually. Pray that those who have never trusted in Jesus would do so. Pray that God will work in the lives of all the students who served this week - that they would grow in their passion to serve the Lord in His kingdom. 

This Sunday we are continuing in our summer sermon series in the Psalms. I have found the psalms to be some of the most helpful Scripture to draw my heart to God and to worship. If you are looking for a great resource to help you read and meditate on the Psalms, I want to recommend In the Lord I Take Refuge: 150 Daily Devotions through the Psalms by Dane C. Ortlund. This is a great resource that you will help you love the Word of God all the more. 

See you Sunday! 

by His grace and to His praise, 

Pastor Wilson
