Well, I hope you had a good MLK day and weekend. It seems we have winter for a day or two, but fall should come back soon. As we move farther into the new year we should remind ourselves what are we doing to help point others to Jesus Christ. We have the joy of serving God in our daily lives and pointing others to the Savior of the world. As we point others to Jesus, the light of the world, we are challenged to walk in the light that has come into the world.
See you Sunday,
