Quote of the Week

Sitting Under the Shade of a Tree 2
Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago. - - Warren Buffet

Thought for the Day

Here and Now Freedom
Freedom is being here not somewhere else. Freedom is the fruit of simplification, because we are not distracted by what has happened in the past, or by what might happen in the future. Jesus spoke of this in two sayings: “don’t put your hand to the plow and look back” (Luke 9:62) and “don’t worry about tomorrow” (Matthew 6:34). As we do this, all that’s left is living today, living in the present moment. Living here and now is living with a lightness of being, and that is freedom.
Excerpt is from MinistryMatters and written by Steve Harper.

Oh Yes! and they prepare hot coffee and breakfast tidbits before the Worship services. Wesley's Spotlight is on all of them for their service to the Lord and to us!
