team, headed by Matt Coleman and
Mike and Ellen Whitten, will be

Please note that we are a church
of many newcomers to this area
who take the Bible seriously and
desire to be involved in mission:
Mission that happens in our com
munity and the world. Our involve
ment in missions is one of our key
priorities. A new “Younger Adult
Class” led by Mike Allen and others
invites you to join them at the Sun
day School hour. Their theme for
the next few weeks is that we all
have a “Theology.”

• ave you ever wondered why people love to collect
antiques? Surely they were built differently than today...no
assembly line construction then. Each piece was carefully custom
made with hands that often displayed calluses as well as a
sensitivity to his or her art. It was a time when individuality was
a way of life. Perhaps we want to preserve that goodness by
owning a piece of the past.
Today nearly every item we purchase is a clone of the others
on the shelf. We speak to machines with machines. Occasionally,
a "real person" speaks...if all else fails. Is individuality lost to the
past? We wonder, "Does anyone really care what I think?"
God cares what you think. Our Heavenly Father hears our
words and knows our thoughts the same as He did a hundred or a
thousand years ago. We are free to pray for our needs. God will
never change. He tells us in Malachi 3:6..."For I the Lord do not
change..." Today, as in the past, we can each help preserve the
goodness in our world. Won't you worship this week?
