A Note From The Pastor

February 13, 2023 by Ed Vinson in Note From Pastor

Cathy and I are leaving Wednesday for Canton to help my dad move some of his furniture into his new room and get his house ready to sell.  I also have a search team meeting for interviewing candidates for the Executive Director position.  Thank you for remembering us in your prayers for safe travels & wisdom for decisions.  We return Wednesday the 22nd.

The story I shared with you Sunday about the 26 angels may be fake (at least according to Snopes.)  I’ve had that story, and many like it, in my files for years.  I do believe people have seen angels acting as guards providing protection for God’s people. I apologize for not researching that more thoroughly.
