Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name;
make known among the nations what he has done.
Psalm 105: 1
A Wesleyan Way of Living:
"Condemn no man for not thinking as you think. Let every one enjoy the full and free liberty of thinking for himself. Let every man use his own judgment, since every man must give an account of himself to God. Abhor every approach, in any kind or degree, to the spirit of persecution, if you cannot reason nor persuade a man into the truth, never attempt to force a man into it. If love will not compel him to come, leave him to God, the judge of all."
John Wesley
Quote of the Day:
"Praise causes the presence of the Lord to come into our midst. Even though God is omniscient, He manifests His authority and rule in our environment when we praise Him. When we praise, God comes in and leads us forth... He does not just visit us, but He abides and aligns Himself with us to walk with us into the path that He has chosen for us."
Chuck Pierce

Tomorrow is the 5th Sunday of the month, so worship service will be held in Fellowship Hall. The SPRC will be hosting. If you’re able, please bring a food item to share and join us at 9:30 AM for a time of fellowship before worship begins.

Good Morning. I will be heading up a work team this Tuesday 10 AM to 4 PM on Sugar Creek in the city of Charleston. If you can commit to at least 3 hours of that time please reply to me at this email. Charleston needs us! I hope you can help. You are welcome to invite and bring 2 other non-ERT's with you.
