So, another year has passed and I'm blogging here. In my last post a year ago I talked about video blogging-which I still think makes more sense and would save time. But, I haven't had the time to make it happen. Maybe this summer we can put it in place. I checked myself out from my teaching job for the 2nd to last time as next year I'll be retiring from teaching.
What about this year-what impressions can I leave here at our church blog. We have had a really good year of solid growth in numbers but also in encouragement and believers getting to know Christ better. I have to thank a few of our newest members who have donated many hours to making our facility look better, but also encourage the different outreaches and ministries that we are involved in. I'm blessed by folks who even though they are getting up there in age want to serve God with their time talents and energy.
Looking forward to the summer as I'll be involved in encouraging some of our youth to raise money and then head to camp in two weeks. Its challenging to have the energy to do the things that I started back when I was barely 30 years old when I moved to BHC and started working with young people. 30 years have made it more challenging to continue to motivate and inspire our young people to work hard to raise the fund for camp.
We also have had several health challenges amongst our people. Let's pray that God would make this year a healthy one for many of us. Our God is the true healer and is in control of our lives.
May we be like Joshua this summer from Joshua Chapter 1: 8" This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success."
Praying for good success that God promises to His faithful!
