BE A LIVELY CHRISTIAN
BE A LIVELY CHRISTIAN
A man once told a pastor that he wanted to become a member of the church. “But,” he said, “I am so busy, so don’t ask me to join a committee, teach a class or sing in the choir. Spare me from anything that would take up my time, and don’t be surprised if I’m not in worship very often.”
The pastor thought for a moment, and then replied, “I believe you’re at the wrong church. The church you’re looking for is 10 blocks down the street.”
The man followed the pastor’s directions and soon came to an abandoned, boarded-up church building. It was a dead church–out of business.
May each of us always be alive to the ministry of the Lord’s church. Remember that lively Christians make churches that are alive.
Our new pastor is Rev. Sean Rezek, who comes to us from FUMC of Phenix City, Al. He and his wife Jennifer have four children, a nineteen year-old son and four daughters, ages fifteen, ten and four. Their son is in the Navy Reserves. We look forward to meeting and welcoming our new church family, and we pray for them as they make this charge.
It would be nice for those that would like to
welcome or communicate with the new pastor
