August 2010
THIS MORNING, AS I WRITE THIS, I AM DOWN IN THE “HOLY CITY!” NO I AM NOT IN JERUSALEM, BUT IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA. IT IS TRULY A BEAUTIFUL CITY WITH ALL THE OLD HOMES. IT SEEMS LIKE LIFE IS ON A MUCH SLOWER PACE HERE. IT IS ALWAYS GOOD TO BE AWAY FOR SOME REFLECTION AND REST. MANY VISIT CHARLESTON TO SEE ALL THE HISTORY OF DAYS GONE BY, BUT WE CANNOT LIVE IN THE PAST, WE CAN ONLY VISIT FOR AWHILE.
SUCH IT IS WITH US AT ZION. WE WILL BE BEGINNING OUR SEARCH FOR A NEW YOUTH DIRECTOR. WE THANK TOMMIE SUE FOR ALL HER SERVICE AND DEDICATION TO OUR LORD AND HIS CHURCH, BUT WE MUST BUILD ON ALL THAT HAS BEEN STARTED IN OUR YOUTH MINISTRY. WE MUST CONTINUE TO REACH OUT TO OUR CHILDREN AND YOUTH. TO THAT END, PLEASE BE IN PRAYER FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE SEARCH COMMITTEE: DONNA MICHAEL, BRIANNA MICHAEL, JOAN SASSER, JANE SASSER AND SANDY LINKOUS.
OUR VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL WAS A GREAT SUCCESS! WE HAD 28 CHILDREN AND MANY WORKERS THAT MADE THE WEEK AWESOME. THE PROGRAM ON THURSDAY NIGHT WAS WONDERFUL. OUR OFFERING TO WHEAT WAS $425.
WE HAVE JUST BEGUN OUR NEW CHURCH YEAR, COMMITTEES ARE MEETING AND PLANNING FOR THE UPCOMING MONTHS. PLEASE PRAYERFULLY CONSIDER WHERE YOU MAY SERVE AT ZION. FIND A COMMITTEE THAT YOU ARE INTERESTED IN AND THEN VOLUNTEER TO SERVE. WITH ALL OF US WORKING TOGETHER WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR AS WE WORK FOR THE LORD HERE AT ZION.
