VBS IS GOING GREAT IN THE COUNTRY!

Our VBS at Enola is going great. We had a great crowd last night (142). Our teachers did an outstanding job with their lessons, a fact I’m sure will continue and excel through the entire series which will conclude on Wednesday evening. We all go to our respective classrooms at 5:00; the adults in the main auditorium, teens in the small auditorium, grades 1-2 and grades 3-4 are meeting in the Fellowship Hall, and the remaining ages in the education building in front of the small auditorium. Last night everyone seemed to get to their sessions without any problem. After class we all meet in the small auditorium for singing and a conversation with “Booster Rooster.” Last evening Booster Rooster got all mixed up on her instructions when she put guacamole in her cupcakes instead of milk. Yuck! I mean; I like guacamole with chips, just not in cupcakes. After this we all walk over to the fellowship hall for cookies and Kook Aide. Yum! Tonight’s program begins at 7:00 p.m. Come out to the country and see how it is. You’ll love it for sure. Adults: Many times VBS is for children. At Enola the adults are having a great study from Proverbs about wisdom. I am teaching the first two sessions: Following Instruction and Avoiding Foolish Behavior. Brother Eddie Hawkins is taking the next two sessions: Living God’s Way and Gaining Wisdom,

Thank you to Brother Brandon Breeding and every Christian brother and Christian sister for your love for God and His church at Enola, for your sacrifices every week, for your dedication to living the Christian life, and especially for your participation this year’s very special Vacation Bible School. God is blessing us. I’m so very glad.

Well, we’re praying and hoping and continuing in faith. And yet, no rain. We must not – will not stop praying, working, dreaming, worshipping, praising, and living for God every day with or without rain. Please! May the Lord bless us in these terrible times of drought with what we need!
This Sunday (August 5) we will begin a new series of lessons entitled: FOUR POOR DECISIONS CHRISTANS CAN’T AFFORD TO MAKE. I hope this series will help us all to be more aware of the God’s provision and our enemy’s deception. We will use Abram and Sarai along with others from the Bible as examples of those who made poor decisions that were so very costly to their relationships with others and with God. If you would to read ahead, read Genesis 16.

Lesson 1 – We cannot afford to let fleshly desire overrule the word of God

Lesson 2 – We cannot afford to listen to those who do not know God’s word

Lesson 3 – We cannot afford to blame others for what we bring on ourselves

Lesson 4 – We cannot afford to shirk responsibility for the sake of keeping peace

We meet at 253 Highway 107 North in Enola every Sunday morning (10 and 11), Sunday evening (5:00) and Wednesday evening (7:00) for Bible study, worship, and fellowship in the name of Jesus Christ. Please come and grow with us.
