SALEM KIDS UPDATE

Studio 4:12 will only meet on Sunday nights November 4th and 11th.  The church-wide thanksgiving dinner will be on Sunday night November 18th.  Studio 4:12 will then start back in January.

I would like to challenge all Salem families to take the time during the Thanksgiving season to spend some time together and as a family count your blessings.  Even in these tough economic times we can all find things to be thankful for. 

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him, rooted in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.  Colossians 2:6

Spring is sprung! What a great time of the year to truly appreciate new life. The trees are budding, daffodils are blooming and pollen is everywhere. To every good thing there seems to be at least one side effect that can hinder us from truly enjoying the beauty of the day. But our focus should not be on the minor yellowing of everything, but the color and beauty God presents through the new life of each plant. This is true with all things, such as, parenting, friendships, jobs, school, anything that we have to work at and can receive blessings from. In Ecclessiates 3 we read about that exact thing. Solomon, whom God made very wise, tells us there is always good with bad. If we focus on God, and know with out a shadow of doubt He is in control life will always be beautiful. It is when we take our focus off God that we see all the pollen. As a body of believers we need to encourage each other and focus on what God is doing in each our lives . My prayer for you is that God would open your eyes to His beauty and bless you in a mighty way. Share God's blessings with your friends, help them find the beauty in everything.

The Week that Changed the World

In Studio 4:12 we are studying the last week of Jesus life. Last week we learned about Jesus Last Supper and how we can remember him in our own lives and through communion. This Sunday night at 6:30 we will go with the disciples to the Garden of Gethsemane, learn how Judas betrayed his Lord and see what choices we need to make in our own lives. Hope to see you all there this Sunday night.
