Samson - A friend of the World

Today we had the story of Samson and Delilah. Angelique and the 'players' did a good job re-enacting the story is was so fun to watch and to watch the kids watch. Of course no good story would be complete without a long-haired Samson, and we delivered today. Of course he lost his hair, it was fast, as the hair (wig) was removed to reveal a fresh cut Samson who lost his hair and strength. All this was because he companied with the wrong people. That was the main emphasis of our preaching. Bad company corrupts good morals. We are teaching on more practical subjects like this that when we first started. Something as simple as a wrong influence can change the course of a persons life. Just ask Samson! That's what we said today. Does it matter who your friends are? Just ask Samson. In the end we had several come to receive the "Best Friend" in the world. Jesus! Lots of fun preaching and enjoying today.

In the A-kids we taught about God's care. His promises come by faith. We read Matthew 6. Take no thought for provision. Who gets God's provision?, we said. Those who believe. How do you believe? Get your mouth to moving.

We are believing for big things with our new youth group. Join with us in prayer to establish this older group for Jesus!

With Love,
Mark and Verna. More great pics go here!
