A Message From the Pastor:

     When Paul founded the church at Thessalonica, he was only there a very short time.  He invested the Word of God into the fertile soil of that group of believers, and God worked greatly in their midst.  In his 2 letters to the church, Paul addressed many concerns over the return of Jesus, and He gave the Thessalonians simple, direct guidance for living the Christian lifestyle.  As Paul concluded his first letter, he encouraged the church, both then and now, with these words. "Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also you do." (I Thessalonians 5:11)

     In other words, take all these teachings and encourage each other with them.  So, I want to leave you with a list of 10 ways you can support and build your church:

             1.   Attend regularly

             2.   Give generously

             3.   Love radically

             4.   Bring others consistently

             5.   Volunteer joyfully

             6.   Share Jesus willingly

             7.   Fellowship purposely

             8.   Show up energetically

             9.   Pray fervently

           10. Encourage faithfully

Simple, Biblical directions that can make a huge difference in our churches!

Love in Christ,

Bro. Scott
