Loving God,
We thank You for the little things in life that bring us joy and that put our trials and tribulations into proper perspective. We are touched by the unexpected “thank you” note, by an email from a distant friend, by the hug from a small child, by the comforting touch from a family member, by the words “I love you” from a spouse, or by the offer of help from a close associate. So often we are overcome by the pressure of schedules and expectations that we look past those occurrences that make everything worthwhile. Please open our eyes, Loving God, so that we might see and experience those things that give life meaning and that provide hope. This is our prayer in Jesus’ name. AMEN.

We had a productive Board Meeting yesterday evening. The Stewardship Committee thanks everyone who participated in the Pony Express run or who responded by mail. We still have people who have not responded. If you plan to submit an Estimate of Giving card for 2013, please call the church office and give your estimate to Jan Markes.
All committee chairs are encouraged to work on their budgets for 2013. You will be receiving information in the next few days.
SCHEDULE FOR TODAY
10:00 Bible study in the conference room
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY
Grace and peace,
John McLemore
