This is the week of Thanksgiving Holidays, our children are celebrating the time out of school, many adults are looking forward to a day away from work, a time to be with family and friends over a big Thanksgiving dinner of turkey, dressing and all of trimmings, then there is football, and late night shopping. Thanksgiving should be so much more than these things, we have so many things to be Thankful for, God has been so good to us as a nation and as individuals. So often we fail to remember or to teach our children what it is to be thankful and God is left out completely. This past week I subbed for a 6th grade English class, the students were to write about what Thanksgiving meant to them. As I looked over some of the papers, God was not mentioned, it was a time to be out of school, a time to eat a big meal with the family, it was sad tha a couple said they had nothing to be thankful for. We as individuals, The Lord’s churches and our Great Nation need to wake up and begin to give our Lord thanks for what He did for us on the cross of Calvary and the many blessings we have as children of God and the privilege to live in this Great NATION, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THANK YOU GOD FOR SALVATION AND THE MANY BLESSINGS!
Now for our weekly update;
Novis and I enjoyed attending the Missionary Baptist Association of Texas meeting at Walnut St. MBC in Hilsboro, TX. The meeting was well attended, great preaching, good reports from missionaries and a good time of fellowship. It was good to see many of the pastors that pastor churches who support PMD. Missions are so important to the advancement of the Gospel Message.
Pastor Jun sent the following report;
