Nov. 26th Note
Much To Be Thankful For
I hope that everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving holiday. We can truly be grateful for all that God has given us, especially in his ultimate sacrifice, his Son, Jesus. We finished our Christ Light book, “Who Am I?” by looking at how our lives are changed when we keep in mind the great gift of heaven that waits for us.
On Wednesday we will begin our new book, “How Can I Make God Pleasing Decisions?” We will begin by discussing the various shows that we watch on T.V. and in movies and how they relate to our lives as children of God.
