Wow! What a wonderful, spirit-filled service we had this past Sunday night! Dale Goff delivered a powerful message--"Do You know My King?"! If you missed this sermon, you'll get another chance to here him speak. Keep an eye out for the next time he is scheduled. This coming Sunday, March 19th will mark the first sermon of a 3 part series on Life Changing Worship! Join us for choir practice at 5 PM and for our 6 PM services! I pray that you have a very blessed week!

Wow! What a wonderful couple of weeks! Rod has done a fantastic job with the website! Church services have been so full of God's glory that it was very difficult to miss this past Sunday. Why did we miss? Ray and I celebrated out 13th anniversary this past Friday (March 10th)! We spent the week in San Diego. The first part of the week was for business and the last part was for vacation. It was wonderful! Wednesday we visited the San Diego Zoo--it was great, but take your walking shoes and invest in the extra for the bus tour. It is huge and very hilly! We rented a convertible and drove up the Pacific Coast Highway on Thursday. How amazing the beauty of God's creation! The mountains, the sea, the beaches, words cannot begin to express the beauty! How anyone can look at such glorious creations and think it was not created by our Heavenly Father is beyond me! I'm a bit of a history buff, so Friday we drove up to Simi Valley to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. It was very moving to see the tribute to this man. I learned that he had a Chapel built at Camp David so that he and Nancy could worship while they were there. On the way back down, we stopped in Hollywood and did a little shopping--very little--things are so expensive. It was wonderful just to ride and relax. We are both rested, revived, and ready to continue with the works before us!

I'm ready to be back in church this Sunday, March 12th. Brother Dale Goff will be delivering the message! Dale attended the same Church of God that I was raised in and formerly served as youth pastor. I hope that you will join us!

Remember to give PRAISE to GOD in all circumstances!

GOD BLESS!
