Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.Love does not delight in evilbut rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13.4-8a

I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in all.

Thank You!It is so wonderful to be back at work! I wanted to again thank everyone for their support, en-couragement, outpouring of love and generosity during my recuperation. You have made a huge impact in the lives of my children and me. --With much love, Christie
Thank You!Dear Friends, It is with a grateful heart I thank you for your prayers. God helped us through our loss of Brenda. (It was easier giving her up than watching her lay there and only able to move her head and eyes.) She was a child of God. I love each of you. This group of friends is my blessing. --Love, Loretta Hicks
Thank You!A heartfelt thank you to all of you who contributed to the food for the workers of VBS. Your generosity, as always, was overwhelming and very much appreciated. Also, a special thank you to Stan Barnett, Will Denson, and Matthew Newton for your cheerful help and support -- couldn't have done it without you. --Elaine Jacks
