Invite friends and family for our Easter services for a special time to celebrate the resurection of Jesus Christ.

Dear Parents,

It is probable that your teen or child has been or will be exposed to pornography.  Consider these statistics:

• The average age of exposure to pornography is 9 years old
• 90% of children ages 8 to 16 have viewed pornography online, most while doing homework.
• 80% of teens ages 15 to 17 have had multiple exposures to hardcore porn.
• 89% of sexual solicitations of youth online are made in chat rooms.  (Source:  Barna Group 2016)
• Two popular online pornographic website have 3.14 and 2.85 trillion monthly visitors - outpacing Amazon and Netflix.

A couple of weeks ago several of our school students (boys and girls) shared their struggles with lust, pornography, bitterness, depression, or suicide in a testimony service.  We had a resource night to help parents protect their children or help them get victory over their struggles.  Please make use of the attached video, slide deck, and resource list if it will be a help to your family.

Please let us know if we can be of help.

May God give us all Wisdom and Grace,

Pastor Wooten

Our God is the all wise Creator of heaven and earth.  Bless the Lord!  Take a moment today to praise and thank God!  What can you praise Him for - life, salvation, mercy, family, provision, protection, hope, forgiveness, heaven, etc.?  Look at the first word of this Psalm - sometimes we don't take the time to look - to Behold! 

Behold, bless ye the LORD, all ye servants of the LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD. Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD. The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.  (Psa 134:1-3)

God help us to take a moment and "Behold" your goodness in our lives.

We praise thee Oh God!

Pastor

P.S.  Don't forget to sign-up for the church picnic.  We particularly need help with serving.

In a verse I read today Joshua told the children of Israel "Choose you this day who you will serve, but as for me and my house we will servce the Lord".  This day there are many things vying for our attention.  There are many things you can invest time and effort in while chasing the "pursuit of happiness".  By God's grace - I and my family will serve the Lord.  How can I use the minutes and seconds of this day for Him?  How will you spend you your day(s)?  What is your choice today?

God Bless,

Pastor
