exists to...   Worship God.   Love Others.   Share Jesus.

What an awesome Sunday! The Messengers Quartet are always a delight. Even some of our youth said that even though this was not their "Cup of Tea" they really enjoyed this group. I, myself, believe their genuine love for God came through. Thank you Messengers!

I really do appreciate JD & Cheryl Miller for their ability to lead worship. Their unique style definitely engages each of us to focus on worshiping God and what a way to draw us to God and God to us as scripture makes it clear that God inhabits the praises of His people. Because of this, each week we are given the opportunity to come together as a congregation of unified believers, set on loving God and destined to be in His presence. Be sure to set you clocks for this very important time of the week...the beginning of what will make a difference in the days to follow. The closer you get to being there when everything starts (10:10 A.M.) the more of it all you will absorb and thus the better you day and week.

This past Sunday night the Youth provided the most wonderful SOUP-ER-BOWL celebration I have ever been to. So much food, fellowship, fun...and my choice of teams won. What could be better? Thank you Darlene Newsome and helpers for all you do and you do sooooooo much! Thank you Nicole Bowling for providing an HD receiver which allowed us to watch the game with greater clarity than most of us are accustomed. Ashley Sparks also set up the big screen and sound system which made it feel like we were sitting in the dome...Thanks!

This coming Sunday we will continue our series "In Search of the Family." This week we will focus on the chapters of Genesis 29-31 & Ephesians 4:15-32 and discuss how to best resolve the very inevitable conflicts that will come into our lives. Make no mistake...each one of us needs to learn how to get through the challenges of life...especially in the home.

We will also be able to meet some more of JD’s family as one of his brothers and one of his sisters join us and bring some their giftedness to the service. You will not want to miss them!

Wednesday, February 13th JD and I will be with Harold Moore in Ashland KY for Ashland First Baptist’s Valentine Banquet. You are invited to join us for a time of love and entertainment with Harold Moore singing as well as JD playing the piano and me doing the comedy thing. The cost is $10 per person with a choice of chicken or steak. We need to know by Sunday so the church there can give caterers an accurate number. I know this is a week night which will make it a little tough but we could caravan there so as to party all the way...did I say that...Christians partying...ooh sounds difficult. Ha! Ha!
Come Sunday for another great day with our Lord.

For the Cause of Christ,

Kenny
