Prayers and Praises for 2007
Be in prayer for: our missionaries, Marshall Craig, Larry Morgan, and Ed Potter; our church for this year; Joy, medical; Mike Rogers, medical (non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma); Ben Campeau, recovery; Dan Campeau, recovery; Carolyn’s aunt, ill; Ruth’s Dad, surgery recuperation; Carol’s neighbor Eleanor, family; Lynn, unspoken and James, ill; Praise that Matt Campeau got a new job immediately; Praise for promotion for Jeremiah Tucker, prayer for Jennifer and girls coming for the summer.
You will soon receive a letter from me regarding our church future. This letter has important information related to the end of our current lease term at the end of this year and for planning ahead beyond 2007.
One thing that we have recently been discussing we will go ahead and implement. We will move our times of services up 30 minutes beginning the Sunday after Easter, April 15th. We will meet for Sunday School at 9am to 9:45am, have a 15 minute break, and then have our church service from 10am to appx. 11am. We will be doing this to provide a different schedule for the summer and to avoid the noise that we have been experiencing. This is a change that hopefully we will all enjoy; we can re-evaluate the schedule after the summer is over and determine if we want to keep it or return to the old. We will be sending out reminder letters of this change prior to April 15th.
The Sarah Corner – “And Sarah laughed”
I Don’t Wanna Go!
On a Sunday morning a mother knocks on her son's bedroom door and tells him it's time to get up and go to church. "I'm not going to church this morning," the son says. "You gotta get up and go to church", says mother. "No, I'm not." says the son. "Yes you are", says the mother. "No, I'm not, they don't like me and I don't like them." says the son. "Give me two good reasons why I have to go," says the son. "Number one, you're 55 years old and number two, you're the pastor!"

- As soon as you delete a worthless file, you'll need it.
- Installing a new program will always mess up at least one old one.
- You can't win them all, but you sure can lose them all.
- The likelihood of a hard disk crash is in direct proportion to the value of the material that hasn't been backed up.
- There are only two kinds of computer users: Those whose hard disks have crashed, and those whose hard disks haven't crashed - yet.
- Anything can be made to work if you fiddle with it. If you fiddle with something long enough, you'll break it.

The Life of David
David’s Failures: The Cycles of Sin
II Samuel 24 and I Chronicles 21
And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel. And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.
Today’s Sermon
Philippians 3:15-20
The Weird and Wacky World of the Christian
“A real Christian is an odd number anyway. He feels supreme love for One whom he has never seen, talks familiarly every day to Someone he cannot see, expects to go to heaven on the virtue of Another, empties himself in order to be full, admits he is wrong in order to be right, goes down in order to get up, is strongest when he is weakest, richest when he is poorest, and happiest when he feels worst. He dies so he can live, forsakes in order to have, gives away so he can keep, sees the invisible, hears the inaudible, and knows that which passes knowledge.” A. W. Tozer, The Root of the Righteous

At the Cross p. 188
Scripture Reading
But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Gal. 6:14)
In 1850, Fanny Crosby attended a revival meeting at New York’s Thirteenth Street Methodist Church. On November 20, as the altar call was given and the choir was singing the song we just sung, “At the Cross,” she went forward and accepted Christ as her Savior. A prolific poet, Fanny turned her attention to writing songs, one of which is the one below, “Near the Cross,” which was written in remembering the song that was sung when she was drawn “near the cross.”

Marriage Humor
A husband came home from work one evening and found his wife in the kitchen crying out loud. "What's the matter, darling?" he asked her. "I just don't know what to do," said the wife. "Because we were eating in for a change, I cooked us a special dinner, but the dog has just eaten it." "Don't worry," said the husband: "I'll get us another dog."
A man came home from the office and found his new bride sobbing convulsively. "I feel terrible," she told him. "I was pressing your suit and I burned a big hole in the seat of your trousers." "Oh, just forget it," consoled her husband. "Remember that I've got an extra pair of pants for that suit." "Yes, I know. And it's lucky you have!" said the woman, drying her eyes. "I was able to use a piece from them to patch the hole!"

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.

The Sarah Corner – “And Sarah laughed”
A priest, a rabbi and a minister go into a bar. The bartender says, “What is this, a joke?”
A priest, a rabbi and a minister are in a boat out in the middle of a lake. The priest says, “I’m thirsty. I’m going to get something to drink.” So he steps out of the boat, walks across the water to shore, gets a soda, walks back across the water and gets back in the boat. The minister says, “I’m thirsty too.” So he walks across the water to shore, gets a soda and walks back to the boat. The rabbi says, “My turn.” He gets out of the boat and immediately sinks. The priest turns to the minister. “Think we should’ve told him where the rocks were?”

David’s Final Days as King: II Samuel 23-24
Today’s Sermon
Philippians 3:7-11
The True Passion of our Lives
“Paul sought to have the same power, resurrection and knowledge of Christ, that he would be brought to the place of becoming, both in his intrinsic nature and also the outward expression of the same, like Christ with respect to His death, not merely His physical death for others, but His death to self, as illustrated in Philippians 2:7, a denying of self for the blessing of others. It was not only the undergoing of a physical death like Christ, but a conformity to the spirit and temper of His life, the meekness, humility and submission to Christ” Kenneth Wuest

Scripture Reading
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
