A note from Heaven

Filed under: General — brendabeckner @ 4:11 pm

Hello my family,  I have a poem I want to share with you.  It is on the front of a sympathy card that I received from Kitty and let me tell you, it has been an inspiration to me.  I have always been one to send cards to people and often thought whether they were truly encouraged by them or not.  So that being said, I have truly been blessed by all of the cards I have received and have been comforted by them.  So send a card to someone and I can assure you that it will be gladly received. 

A Note from Heaven

If I could write from Heaven,                                                                                                       This is what Id’ say,                                                                                                                          Please don’t miss me too much,                                                                                                  I’m with you throughout your day.                                                                                            You may not see or hear me,                                                                                                      But if you’re quiet and still,                                                                                                         You may just feel my presence;                                                                                               because in Heaven, there is free will.                                                                                     Don’t worry for the day,                                                                                                                   it will come and go as planned,                                                                                                    Enjoy each moment you are given,                                                                                             keep worry from your hand.                                                                                                          Keep sorrow to a minimum;                                                                                                           For if Heaven you could see,                                                                                                   You’d know I’m safe and happy,                                                                                                      I did not cease to be.                                                                                                                Moments in time are brief,                                                                                                           until we’ll be together again,                                                                                                           As Eternity last forever                                                                                                                     our lives, they have no end.

It brings joy to my heart to know that Mom has arrived.

Welcome to Our New Families

Filed under: General — Phyllis Rice @ 10:27 pm

We want to welcome the 2 families who joined Mt. Jackson yesterday. They are the Church family (Laura, Jack, Deana, and Carley). Then we also had Jim and Jeanne Hamlin join. These folks have been coming for a few months now and we are so happy they have decided to be a part of us. If you have not had a chance to welcome these families make sure you let them know they are welcome as soon as possible.

Family

Filed under: Uncategorized — brendabeckner @ 8:02 pm

Hello my church family and anyone else who may read this.  If you are not a part of a church family, you don’t know what you are missing. 

My Church family knows that my Mom passed away Jan 4th.  I don’t know what I would have done without them to help me emotionally through this time.  I know my Mom is having the time of her life and I am so happy for her but boy do I miss her.  As much as I know that she is with Jesus and with my Dad and with all other Saints, I am still depressed without her here.  I get excited when I think about what she may be doing.  I know whatI am doing and that is mourning for her.  My Church family has made that process easier.   They listen when I ramble, they cry when I cry, they laugh when I laugh and they hug me just at the right time.   Family is important.  There is always room for more at Mt Jackson.   Come and get to know our family and you may want to become one of us.  I thank God for my Church Family.

Good Monday to all of you. I hope you are having a blessed week. I just wanted to give a quick review of our service yesterday. We were truly challenge to not only tell others about our Lord, but to make sure others can see Him in the things that we say and do.
There are pictures of yesterday’s service here.
Ladies, don’t forget we will have practice tonight at 7.

Next week we will be announcing our Super Bowl party at the church after the Sunday night service. Start thinking about what kind of snacks you want to bring.

Sunday Review, January 13th

Filed under: Sunday Review — Phyllis Rice @ 1:57 pm

Happy Snowy Monday to you all today. I pray you are all having a wonderful day. We had a great day yesterday. We had music that concentrated on knowing God’s word better in the coming year. The history of how we got our copy of the Bible was very interesting. Specials included, My Savior’s Love, Jesus is coming soon, and Glory-land.

We had a good crowd yesterday, but continue to invite your family and friends. There’s always room for more.

Ladies, don’t forget practice tonight at 7:00. See ya then.

Reminders

Filed under: Reminders — Phyllis Rice @ 11:43 am

Hello everyone! I trust that you are all having a blessed week. I wanted to remind you of a couple of things…

Don’t forget to get me the pictures of you and your sweetheart. I need these as soon as possible. Please put them in a envelope with your name on them and I will return them to you as soon as possible.

Monday night at 7 we will again have our ladies ensemble practice.

Some of the ladies are planning a Valentine dinner but they need your help. There will be a sign up sheet in the back for those who would be willing to help.

This coming Sunday night we begin our new Children’s Sunday Series.

I hope you all are having a great weekend. I wanted to make sure everyone was aware of a couple of things. Clendal Hill is back in the hospital with pneumonia. Please pray that God will strengthen him and that he will be back home soon.
Also, Brenda Beckner’s mom passed away Friday morning. The viewing will be at Memorial Sunday night from 5 til 7 and the funeral is Monday morning at 11. Please pray for this family in the loss of their mother.
