It's Bible Time!
   Last night was a real blessing!  We started out the NBT week with over 150 children and 

teens.  Several were saved and some made dedication decisions.  What a start!  Let's 

continue to be in prayer this week that God will do some amazing things in the hearts of these 

boys and girls that will last for eternity.  ~ See you tonight!

• "It's Bible Time!"  What a wonderful week of canvassing we have had this week!  Thank you to all those who have come out to canvassing.  Let's continue to pray for the teachers and helpers as they prepare their lessons this week.  I took pictures of the canvassers last night and was going to show them to you this morning, but I am technically challenged and couldn't figure out how to download them off my camera - ha!  Well, maybe one of you can share that secret with me.  

• The Nursery is almost finished.  It is going to be a blessing!

• Shared blessing from my devotions this morning:

I’d rather have Jesus than silver or gold,
I’d rather be His than have riches untold;
I’d rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today.

Have a great day!

We had a great start to Bible Time Canvassing last night.  We had 30 people out to canvass, and we signed up 34 new boys and girls to come to NBT!  What a fun time and a great blessing!  If you haven't come out to canvassing yet, please try to come.  Let's be praying too!

Have a great day!

What Time Is It?

                          Bible Time!

We have canvassing every day this week . . .
   Mornings - 9:30 AM
   Evenings  - 7:00 PM

See you there!

Good morning!  We are gearing up for Neighborhood Bible Time at Westside Baptist Church.  This week is Canvassing Week.  Everyone is invited to come out!  We will start by meeting tomorrow morning (Tuesday) to get organized at 9:30 AM.  Tuesday night at 7:00 PM we will start going out into local neighborhoods to sign up new boys and girls for NBT.  Come out and help us!  It's very exciting to sign up a child or teen who comes and then gets saved next week in Bible Time.

Let's also be praying much for the teachers as they prepare their Bible stories and Missionary stories.  Let's also be praying for the Evangelists that will be coming to our church.

~ Have a great day!

 
Good Morning!  It's time to be in the House of the Lord!  I am looking forward to a wonderful day ~ sitting at Jesus' feet ~ hearing from the Word of God!

This picture reminds me of Pastor's home church in Panama, New York.  Whenever we would visit there, it would be like going back in time!  ~ Love it!

Psalm 122:1 - "I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord."

Summer is a time to relax, get caught up on projects around the house, etc. Take time to relax this summer.  Jesus took time every once in a while to "come apart" and rest.  We need to come apart before we "come apart!"  Let's not leave the Lord out of our relaxing times though.  Sometimes the Lord gives us one of the best opportunities to witness when we are on vacation.  Let's stay in the image of Christ 100% of the time.  Have a wonderful day!

Getting up this morning, I had no agenda for the day.  Have you ever wondered what the Lord has in store 

for you in a particular day?  It's good to set goals every day, but spiritually, we should have "no agenda" of 

our own each day.  We should pray every morning, "Lord, You set the agenda for this day.  Bring into my 

life today the people to which I can be a blessing"  Have a great day!

Well...yes...the day has finally come to turn 57 years old.  Life is wonderful with each passing year when you

know the Lord!  I was reading in my devotions this morning that God does not "clean up" for us after trials in

our life; He goes through them with us.  What a wonderful God we serve!  I hope you have a wonderful day!

I would like to ask everyone to give me a special birthday present today ~ spend some quality time in the

Word and with the Lord!  Love you all!
