It has been two and half months since school stated and it seems as if the year is flying by. We have finished Trunk-or-Treat and had our annual family and friend’s hayride and bonfire out at Tommie & Loretta Klein’s, what a wonderful day we had together. Thank you to those that help with the community project, I know that the individual that we help was very grateful, did it not feel good to get out and do something for others.
These activates remind me of the words that James writes in James 2.18, “But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you faith by my works” (CSB).[1] It is great to talk about your faith in Christ, but when you go out and show it in the community then you really are showing your faith through your actions. This is how people will know that you have the love of Christ in you, by how much you love one another (John 13:35). I know some of you did not make it, but hopefully we will see you at some of the other events and at Sunday School, Calvary CREW and Sunday Night Live. In Christ, Pastor Jonathan [1] Christian Standard Bible. (2017). (Jas 2:18). Nashville, TN: Holman Bible Publishers.
