Phyllis & Betsy, Pastor Appreciation Day...

Today, in addition to being Pastor Appreciation Day, Phyllis and Betsy came to visit, and helped out with the Children's Sermon. The kids loved it, and Betsy even sang a song, Faith, Hope & Love.



Betsy tells the children about faith, hope and love.




Ariana was willing to come up, but only wanted to watch Betsy from afar.





The ladies, Bev, Diana, Carol, Catherine and Pam decorated the community room for our potluck after church services. It was a gorgeous, autumn theme and was beautiful. The food was great - we have a lot of good cooks in our congregation!




Our worship leader, Lora, gave the congregation a chance to tell our pastor, Shawn Wallace, how much we appreciated him and his family. Many people stood up to tell how Pastor Shawn and his family helped them in some way. There were a lot of tears and thank yous - and tons of Christian love flowing today.

Brother Kent Bourland preached the sermon, following the theme of faith, hope, and love. He gave us a little quote of encouragement:

Faith is our past, hope is our present, and love is our eternity.

And with Jesus, all things are possible. God Bless our church family, and may we continue to grow in love.
