September Sabbath 23rd..

It is nice to be in Autumn time of year again.

People are back from summer excursions  and it is nice to see everyone again.  We'll, almost everyone...a few families are still traveling or visiting relatives.

The pastor  lead the lesson discussion on Waging Peace.

That was followed by MissionSpot Light.

Then it was Praise Time and the vocal and music band worked well to get us singing.

Then was children's story by Beverly and the children's offering taken up by the children.

Her singing brings us who listen so much to enjoy and think about.  Thank you Kim. 

Which ever way you find it easiest to give your tithe and offerings there is a time for this type of sharing at church too. 

So nice to have this young man included in the service by reading the scripture and having prayer in Spanish. 

All listening and working on their hands...

Sisters making their hand for the wall hand heart. 

New books in the racks to share.  

This little turtle was in our row and was being very still and quiet. 

A few weeks ago some good Samaritans saw a turtle walking on the back road and stopped to help it get off the road hopefully to safety.  

It was a church service about Jonathan.  Learning good lessons about this man in the Bible. 

Sabbath July 1st

 A very lovely summer Sabbath a couple of days before VBS began.

SS and church went ahead as planned with a very interesting video sermon presented.

Lori had an animal story for the children  and we all enjoyed it.

In the early afternoon we met at Joy and Warren's home for a Canadian themed fellowship meal... their front yard was calm and cool.  Such good visiting and eating took place.

The little one in the last photo stole everyone's heart...especially mine.  

It takes much planning, emails, messages, phone calls, announcements and cooking to have this kind of Sabbath come together.

Thank you to all who put forth the effort in each area to provide Sabbath delight each week.

VBS 2023 or Bible Day Camp

 Summer is here and VBS is completed. 

The week came and went so quickly I only got to visit one day but that day sure did seem to be full of fun for the many children. 

Shannon was the key person along with her mother, Cherri.  Jerrie Lou and Edith took up their post at the snack department and I know there were others helping in the Bible story room and Pastor Josue down at the pond with helpers Levi and Cody with the games.
