Prayer of the Week
The Lords Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your Kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours.
Now and for ever.
Amen

No Excuses
To make it possible for everyone to attend church, we will soon be having a special "No Excuse Sunday?"
  • Z beds will be placed in the foyer for those who say "Sunday is my only day to sleep in.
  • There will be a special section with lounge chairs for those who feel that our pews are too hard.
  • Eye drops will be available for those with tired eyes from watching TV late Saturday night.
  • We will have steel helmets for those who say, "The roof would cave in If I ever came to church."
  • Blankets will be furnished for those who think the church is too cold, and fans for those who say it is too hot.
  • Scorecards will be available for those who wish to list the hypocrites present.
  • Relatives and friends will be in attendance for those who can't go to church and cook dinner, too.
  • We will distribute "Stamp Out Stewardship" buttons for those that feel the church is always asking for money.
  • One section will be devoted to trees and grass for those who like to seek God in nature.
  • Doctors and nurses will be in attendance for those who plan to be sick on Sunday.
  • The church will be decorated with both Christmas trees and Easter lilies for those who never have seen the church without them.
  • We will provide hearing aids for those who can't hear the preacher and cotton for those who can!!
