Dear Church Family,

This past Sunday, May 24, was a special day. Praise the Lord, we met for

worship as a church family for the first time in eight weeks. It was wonderful

to be able to see your smiling faces (or at least your smiling eyes). We had an

attendance of 110, which was good for the first Sunday back together. The

baby dedications that we had the opportunity to participate in were special.

Pray for Mike and Karina Harney (Juan Michael) and David and Briana

Campos (Sarai Priscilla).

This corona virus episode has been a trying time for everyone. It has sparked

fear and anxiety on the part of most because of its uncertainty. Even today

we receive conflicting reports from some of the medical experts. We cannot

afford to pretend that it does not exist or even that there is no danger of it. I

think we still have to be cautious and practice some sound principles, such as

hand washing and social distancing. In fact I said Sunday morning that we

will practice the six foot rule in worship and in LIFE groups when we

resume on June 7. We can only do so much and then we trust God for the

rest.

We have had a large following for the live streaming service, and we will

continue to offer that as an outreach ministry. Special thanks to Jimmy and

Melba Taylor for their hard work in making that happen. That is one good

thing that has happened in this time. I also believe that God has used these

past few weeks to strengthen prayer time and Bible study time on an

individual basis, as well as remind us of the importance of worshipping

together as a church family.

In these days stay strong, ask God for wisdom and use it, remain faithful to

show the love of Christ as you serve and minister in His name. “God is good,

all the time!”

In His love,

Bro. DarrolBro. DarrolBro. DarrolBro. Darrol

Thank You Note

Dear Church,

Thank you for the exceptional kindness we

were shown in the days leading and through

out Margaret’s, mom’s service to the

wonderful meal that so many helped to make

happen.

We wish we could hug each and every one

of our church family brothers and sisters.

The day will come that we will gather in His

house and worship.

We love and miss you all.

Love,

Doyce Cotton and family
