Romans 4: 1-8 was the scripture text for Pastor Mark Abney’s sermon titled Justification Through Faith. Because Abraham had faith, he was a righteous man. Everything he did was because he walked by faith in God. When we ask Jesus to be our Savior, we too are seen as righteous by God. We begin a process of sanctification as we grow in our faith.
We extend happy birthday wishes to Lori Rima on June 21, Drew Willings on June 22, and Jeff Hollinger on June 27. May the Lord bless them this year.
Prayer concerns this week include Phyllis Richardson, Dalton Creach, Abe Kohl, Kay Pogue, and Michael Parker. Thank you, Lord, for hearing and answering our prayers.
On Saturday, June 26th we enjoyed a fish fry fellowship. The music group “New Assembly” was present and blessed us with an outdoor concert. Good food, good fellowship, good music, and the perfect weather made for a well-attended event.
