Thank you Gail for today's lesson -- great job from the B-Team!

Biblical Truth: The Lord expects His people to treat one another graciously, remembering always the grace He showed in redeeming them.
Share the Freedom - Lev. 25:10-12
Be willing to proclaim freedom in Christ to someone who needs to be saved.
Exhibit Fairness - Lev. 25:13-17
Treat others with grace and fairness as we exhibit our deep respect for our God
Manage Blessings - Lev. 25:18-22
Use wise management of God's blessings in bold faith in Him.
Extend Kindness - Lev. 25:35-38
Always show through our actions God's design of holiness by showing His grace and kindness to others.
As Christians, we have been delivered from sin's bondage and have been given the hope of eternal life. May we exhibit His grace and holiness daily.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY WISHES - Linda Bacher, Lloyd Martin, Bill Richey, and Kathy Mohne


VISITOR - Shirley Newland


PRAYER REQUESTS - James 5:13-16
Laura Elmore - "our daughter-in-law's father, Jack, was just diagnosed with MDS, myelodysplastic syndrome, which is due to Agent Orange from his service in the Vietnam War. Jack will begin receiving injections immediately and most likely start transfusions. We would appreciate prayer for the treatments to work and slow the progression. Thanks, Laura and Brian Elmore."

Gene Tyree - Gene is better after his recent knee replacement surgery and is recovering at home with the help of Sue.

Continue to pray for all the men and women serving in the armed forces and law enforcement, and our nation.
