MAY 2012 NEWSLETTER
MOTHER'S DAY FOCUS:
God’s Word reveres women and this month we want to stop, look back and take time to honor those we honor with the title "Mother." Many of us have had the privilege of a mother or grandmother who influenced us to love and follow Jesus by her actions, words, and deeds. Each was an example to us in some way of faithfulness, love and devotion. The pages of scripture, from beginning to end, are filled with stories of joy, tragedy, hope and despair. In the OT, we have mothers such as Hannah who prayed for a child and then offered him to the Lord for His service. In the NT, we have an example of love, devotion and servanthood as seen in the mother of Christ. Her servant spirit brought us the greatest story ever told of the incarnation, death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. This year, Mother’s Day falls on May 13, 2012. Who in your life will you honor on this special day? Send us a note using this webform that we may rejoice with you.
