It’s the beckoning nudge and the overwhelming, undeserved mercy that urges us to change and grow, and then gives us the power to pull it off. TIM HANSEL (1941-2009) VBS Starts Tomorrow Night 6 pm – 8:15 pm. First, a big THANK YOU to all who donated items/time to help with VBS. It is greatly appreciated!!! And most importantly, please be praying for our Vacation Bible School event this coming week. Pray that the kids that are coming would have open hearts to receive the Gospel message. Prayers for the “Illumination Station” presentation, that the message is clear to the kids that Jesus is the light of the world. Also, please pray for good health, strength, and energy for all the leaders and volunteers, and that everyone is ready to welcome the kids with much anticipation. And that God would bless this and make it a success for His glory. Grace is but glory begun, and glory is but grace perfected.
