Sunday was a day that seemed to be a day of celebration. So many of you gave it all you had in prayer for one of our shepherds. The Father's great answer to those prayers had all of us filled with thankful hearts. Over and over I heard things like, "Praise God"; "God is good", and many other things similar. You have to love it when the Father does something that makes everyone sit back and say, "That could only God!" It really affected our worship. I don't know about you, but after spending so much time praying for Joe on Friday, my Saturday was filled with many moments of thanking God. I guess you could call it the Divine compulsion.
Sunday night was another great experience. It was the first time I had an opportunity to go to the parenting class. Joel did an outstanding job with a very difficult subject. This congregation is fortunate to have him working with our teenagers. The class went so well, it went over by 30 minutes and then decided to add one more week.
David Paladin headed out for a much needed vacation. Pray that he will find refreshment. He continues to do a great work for this congregation.
While we are talking about the staff, A'Lana did a great job keeping the church informed before, during, and after Joe's surgery. Many commented to me Sunday how much they appreciated the updates.
It is going to be a busy week. Keep praying for so many in this church who are dealing with physical issues. Check up on those who sit around you during services and let the leadership know if there are those who need special attention.
