Rev. John F. Holden, Pastor

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11:28

"One hundred years from now it won't matter if you got that big break, took the trip to Europe, or finally traded up to a Mercedes... It will greatly matter, one hundred years from now, that you made a commitment to Jesus Christ."

WELCOME!

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we welcome you to a place in this congregation. Blessed be your coming in to worship and your going out to minister in Jesus' name.

Awesome God

GIVE THANKS
Rejoice everyone.
In every thing give thanks;
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus
concerning you.

1 Thessalonians 5:16,18

It is good to remember that the tea kettle,
although up to its neck in hot water,
continues to sing.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good!
His faithful love endures forever.

Psalm 107:1
Pilgrim divider bar

I will remember the works of the Lord;
surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
I will meditate also of all thy work,
and talk of thy doings.

Psalm 77:11,12

Sometimes we are so busy adding up our troubles
that we forget to count our blessings.

Young boy sharing dinner with his turkey

I give you thanks, O Lord, with all my heart;
I will sing your praises before the gods.
I bow before your holy temple as I worship.
I will give thanks to your name
for your unfailing love and faithfulness,
because your promises are backed
by all the honor of your name.
When I pray you answer me;
you encourage me by giving me the strength I need.

Every king in all the earth will give
you thanks, O Lord,
for all of them will hear your words.
Yes, they will sing about the Lord's ways,
for the glory of the Lord is very great.
Though the Lord is great, he care for the humble,
but he keeps his distance from the proud.

Psalm 138:1-6
