News from the Library: This month we would like to high-light a few books in keeping with Father’s Day: (these books will be located in front of the library window unless they have been borrowed) The Winning Dad by Stan Toler and Jerry Brecheisen. This book gives every dad the confidence to be a good dad. Cope with life in the fast lane, set fami-ly priorities, understand the stages of your child’s life, use mentors and friends to strengthen your spiritual life, and rise above personal failures. It is filled with tips and quotes from NAS-CAR greats like Dale Jarrett, Dale Waltrip, and Ernie Irvin. Graham: A day in Billy’s Life by Gerald S. Strober. This is the story of an ordi-nary day in the life of an extraordinary man. It‘s a sixteen-hour workday. The setting is the Billy Graham Crusade in Jackson, Mississippi. The focus of the book is on one day of the crusade, but flashbacks to other days in his life are also included. It’s Easier to Succeed Than to Fail by Truett S. Cathy. This is the story of Truett Cathy’s life; how he started at the age of eight to be an entrepreneur and became the successful business-man everyone knew and respected for his Christian principles. He was a dedicated husband, father, and grand-father as well as a surrogate parent and big brother to many. =>

The Food Ministry is supported by Missions of Mercy, FAITH Riders,

“No One Left Behind”

Pastor’s June "Beacon” Article:

As we move into the summer months, I would like

to encourage each you to make your church a

priority. We are the body of Christ and together we

can accomplish so much for the Kingdom of God

this summer. I realize that vacations and sporting

events as well as so many other family activities are

important and a large part of your summer.

However, I believe that your regular church attendance as well as your

continued generosity are essential to the life of Liberty Hill, and I am excited

about what the next few months hold for us. It is so encouraging to see your

smiling face here each Sunday morning and I trust that I will get to see it in June

and July just as I have the rest of the year. Stay in your Word each day; stay on

your knees in prayer each day; and make your church attendance a regular thing

all summer long!

I love you all,

Chris
