COMING THIS SUNDAY, JULY 15th:
Too much stuff to do without enough time to do it all? Why not prioritize these items using a "Honey Do" list? Join us this Sunday as Pastor Danny attempts to help us do a little spiritual organizing, as he brings us the message. "The Honey Do List-Part I".
Food for the Journey
"The first and often the only person to be healed by forgiveness is the person who does the forgiveness..... When we forgive, we set a prisoner free then discover that the prisoner we set free was us."
-Lewis B. Swedes
See you in church!
