We had a wonderful Sunday with family and friends. Hor d'oeuvers were served after the Sunday service. And then the annual general meeting for all that wished to stay. What an honor to be re elected for another term as one of the great team of deacons that represent our church under Pastor Lyle and Pastor Laura. After church we were off to the Willis farm visit with the for a visit with the new baby and a whole lot of great food to enjoy as usual. We then were off to the hospital to spend a few minute with our trusted leader and friend Bruce as he struggles with a back situation that we are all hoping that God will repair soon. He also seems to be a natural when it comes to creating crosses and we left the briefcase with him, look out hospital you are about to be blessed.
We then were off to the Vic Jubba center for a performance by the original Platters, wow did that take us all back a few years or what. Don't forget the Battle River Ranch Camp Fund raiser October 2 this next Saturday we need to see you all there as we prepare for another year of building the Kingdom of God and impacting lives with the gifts God has blessed us with.
WHY WE PRAY AND HOPE THAT
YOU WILL GIVE JESUS A CHANCE
THE LIFE YOU REALLY WANT AND CAN HAVE IS UP TO YOU
HERE'S ALL YOU NEED TO DO AND WHY
DON'T WAIT ANOTHER MINUTE TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT AND HERE'S WHY
#1
Because you have a past
You can't go back, but He can. The Bible says, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday and today, and forever" (Hebrews 13:8) He can walk into those places of sin, failure and hopelessness, wipe the slate clean and give you a new beginning. A beginning with a real and lasting future, full of hope.
#2
Because you need a friend
Jesus knows the worst about you, yet he believes the best. Why? Because He sees you not as you are, but as you will be when He gets through with you. What a friend!
#3
Because He holds the future
Who else are you going to trust? In his hands you are safe and secure - today, tomorrow and for eternity. His word says, "For I know the plans I have for you ...plans for good and not evil, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray I will listen". (Jeremiah 29:11-13 TLB)
If you'd like to start over, with a new beginning with Jesus today, Diane, I, the board of directors, volunteers and supporters of Crossman Ministries and the Battle River Ranch Camp would ask you, if you are looking for a new beginning to please pray this prayer:
LORD JESUS CHRIST
I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life. I ask Your forgiveness and now turn from everything that I know is wrong. Thank You for dying on the cross for me to set me free from my sins. Please come into my life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and be with me forever. Thank you Lord Jesus, Amen.
If you have made this commitment and would like to make contact, please call us. We'd love to talk to you and help in any way we can.
We are praying for all of you reading the blog every day.
