The following article comes from Jon Bloom of Desiring God (http://www.desiringgod.org/blog/posts/when-the-perfect-comes) As I both look back into last year and forward into this one, I found these words encouraging and full of hope.

Healthy churches are growing churches. The desire for a church to grow is a normal, noble intention. For instance, Jesus said He would build His church (Matt. 16:18), the apostles preached and prayed hard as the church began, and Paul instructed the Thessalonians to pray that the word of the Lord would spread rapidly (2 Thess. 3:1). Regrettably, we do not always define “growth” the way God does, nor do we instinctively stay true to how He intends to grow His church.

Of all our American national holidays, none has been as devalued in my Christian experience as tomorrow’s.

Because the heater in the Little Theater still is not repaired, we are moving our Sunday morning worship service to the Young Life building (1948 18th Avenue, Kingsburg, CA 93631). Parking at the entrance of the building is limited, so please reserve those places for our members who would be best served by a shorter walk. The nurseries and Seeds will stay in their normal rooms. ABF and Sunday schools will also remain in their normal rooms. Sorry for the inconvenience but looking forward to worshipping together regardless!
