CARTHAGE CHURCH OF CHRIST

from the preacher's heart

4/27/2016

 
     Welcome, VISITORS!  The Lord’s church at Carthage is so honored to have you visit with us.  Your presence indicates an interest in spiritual matters.  We, too, have great interest in things divine.  We encourage you to study God’s Word with us.  If you have questions or comments about what you hear and observe, please feel free to approach us.  Please come again!          
     We say “So long” to Cobie and Shirley Sadler who are moving to Lebanon.  They have been faithful members of the church here for a long time and very involved in the work, with Cobie serving as a deacon.  He and Shirley have been involved in the Honduran work and many other good works.  They will be attending Maple Hill.  We will miss them!          
     Attendance bounced back this past Sunday even with some still being ill and a couple of families out of town.  Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all were present and together every week?!  Let’s put forth every effort to bring that hope to fruition.            
     Our contribution rebounded as well.  Our giving is a “gauge” of our love for the Lord and His church (2 Cor. 8:24).  It also provides opportunities for the church to do good in the areas of evangelism/mission work, benevolence, and edification.  We are admonished “to be ready to every good work” (Titus 3:1; cf. 2 Tim. 3:17)/          
     The annual fish fry went well.  I am not sure of the total number served, but the food and fellowship were great.  We were blessed to have several guests, friends, and family members.  A large number of meals were delivered to shut-in and sick folks.  All those who assisted with delivery are to be thanked, especially our youth, who were very helpful.  Those who prepared the annex and cleaned up afterward did a great job.  Others picked up supplies, cut up and battered fish and chicken, etc.  The desserts and side dishes were great.  Thanks to all who brought them.  And, last, but certainly not least, our hats are off to the cooks and helpers!  They did their usual great job.          
     We enjoyed a safe and pleasurable day trip to the SEIBS lectures at the Karns’ building (Knoxville), on Monday.  We heard a number of excellent lessons and enjoyed the fellowship as well seeing a number of friends and fellow-gospel preachers.          
     We will be doing the devotional at Kindred this Sunday afternoon.  The time is 2:00 P.M.  We congregate in the up stairs dining area with those residents who are able and desire to attend.  Please come and bring a hymn book with you.           
     I hope to see you Sunday morning, our Lord willing.
