Our Unfinished Youth have been leading our Children’s Church. They are doing a summer program that began Memorial Day weekend and will continue through July. They have presented skits each week and Queen Esther has shared her personal experiences as they studied from Esther. After the lesson this past Sunday, the youth began teaching all the children two of the songs they will be singing for VBS. We had two of the Unfinished members leave for missionary training on Monday. They are working with the Christian Youth in Action this summer. The missionary team of 27 young people from the Upstate will be conducting daily bible clubs, three times per day for five day a week. Please be much in prayer for the CYIA group and the Unfinished youth as they continue their mission projects throughout the summer.
Speaking of VBS….our Bible School will be June 22-25 from 6:30-8:30 pm nightly. On Friday, June 26th at 7:00 we will have commencement and activities. Our program is SonRock Kids Camp; Where Kids Build Their Lives on the Rock: Jesus. Please plan to bring your children to enjoy this great time in the Lord.
This past Sunday morning we honored our graduates. Kali graduated from Fountain Inn Christian School, Jamie graduated from Woodmont High School, and Cory graduated from Wren High School. They all plan to attend college in the fall. Congratulations!! We are so proud of your accomplishments.
In the evening service Pastor Robert brought the message “What More Do You Need” from Romans 5:8. Conviction is a very significant thing. Some people are waiting on a glorious appearing, a lightning bolt, or something but conviction is the something that has happened. God has done everything He is going to do for our salvation. There is nothing more that needed to be done. We are in a sorry state. We don’t like it but we are. We are living where people aren’t convicted of their sin. They live the way the want and they don’t care. People once had conviction about them. The responsibility has been removed but it doesn’t change the fact that God has convicted them. We know right from wrong. It is something within our selves. Our best is but filthy rags. Conviction is something the Holy Spirit does to men, women, boys and girls. The truth will set you free. The Holy Spirit applies the word to our lives. A perfect provision; Christ died for us. He loved you enough to die for you. The love of God proves His love for us. His own love; no one else could love us like He does. He has everything under control. Our every need for salvation has been provided. He provided it so we wouldn’t have to die and go to hell. He gave His Son Jesus to take our place on the cross. A request of responsibilities; man must face the task of being responsible and face the issues. We must think through what has already happened and realize He did it for us. Sin separates us from the Lord. We must accept the responsibility for our sin. It’s time to get saved! If you have ever heard a gospel message, you will not be saved during the tribulation. Man must stop waiting for something to draw them. What more do you need? A perfect man went to Calvary for our sin. God has already provided it all!! Our faith is in His Word, John 3:16. You must respond to the convicting power of Christ and for the cause of our precious Redeemer. God keeps punishing us for our sin because we won’t turn to Him. Respond to the convicting, trust Him now.
Looking ahead; we will have our Father/Son Breakfast on June 21st, Evangelist Robert Winecoff will preach on June 28th in our morning service, Homecoming is August 16th, and August 30th Timeless Devotions Singers will present their message in song in our evening service.
Please help us to pray for the sick, lost, bereaved, and our military. Until next time, may God richly bless you and your family and know that Jesus loves you!
