![]() Vacation Bible School – June 2nd thru 6th
![]() ![]()
Over the years, I have read and heard little snippets of wisdom. I usually write them down somewhere and then occasionally run across them as I am cleaning out some of my files. I thought I would use my article this month to share some of those wisdom words, which I found, written in one of my older Bibles.
I pray that each of these words of wisdom will stay with you, as you focus your attention on serving the Lord, in a difficult world. May they encourage and train you for Christ-like living. I will leave you with one final word, which is so very important to our day and time.
Bro. Jerry

Special Thank you………
Dear Christian Friends, I want to take this opportunity to express my thanks for the cards, visits, calls, and especially the prayers before, during and following my recent surgery. I am a firm believer in the power of prayer; and know without a doubt I am here today in answer to those prayers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I still have some healing to get through but each day seems a little better. In Christ, Lucy (and Jerry) Brooke
