Well, the calendar, and the
weather, both tell us that summer is here. I love this time of
year. God's creation is now shown in its entire splendor.
And the eat hasn't yet begun the summer "melt down". Truly, a
wonderful time of year.
Last month I said that we would be having our Patriotic
Celebration at Mike Miller Park on Sunday evening, July 6th. So if
you don't have that on your calendar, don't forget it. All of the
churches that participated in the combined revival week this spring will
be included... Bethlehem, Bethel, Gilbertsville, Lakeview, and Zion's
Cause. Here's what will be taking place that evening. We
will begin the service with a time of singing and testimony from the
entire congregation. During that time we will hear from each of
the churches in attendance. During this time we will be
recognizing those who helped to make this great country in which we live
the best place on earth. Following that will be a short patriotic
presentation from a combined choir made up of folks from each of the
five churches.
If you would like to be a part of the choir, meet
together with us at Zion's Cause on Sunday afternoon, the 6th at 4:30PM
for a time of rehearsal for the horal presentation. It will be a
short presentation of patriotic music that we have done from past
summers. Come be a part of this even if you haven't sung it
before. You will be able to pick it up pretty easily.
The finale' of the evening will be the favorite
activity of Baptists everywhere... eating! If you have a favorite
recipe for homemade ice cream, a dessert, etc., make it and bring it
with you. You could even bring a watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew,
etc. Don't forget your lawn chairs !
This time is always a wonderful time of fellowship and
I know this year will be the same. Don't miss it.
Love in Christ... Frank
