ABIDING

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are they called according to his purpose.”                                                          - Romans 8:28 KJV

When I started to work at the bank, it was open every Saturday until noon.  A few years after that the bank was closed on Saturdays.  A few more years after that they decided to have only the motor bank open and everybody (only two a week) had to work on their scheduled Saturday.  That was hard after having only a five day week for a few years.  This is the verse that came to my mind and it applies to other things as well.

                                                                                                                - Karen Seaton

Vision Statement -  As followers of Jesus Christ, we are a community of faith

empowered by the Holy Spirit, seeking to love God with all our heart, mind, soul,

and strength, and to love others as our self.
