The pastor is Rev. James
BuUard. Jr.
We praise God for this
week. He has been good to us.
Our lesson Sunday was entitl
ed "Communicating the Gos
pel." A Christian's responsi
bility is to share the good
news of Christ with everyone."
Paul preached with bold
ness. Those who wish to stop
the spreading of the gospel do
not mind twisting the truth to
achieve their objective.
Paul knew the truth and he
knew the God that he was
serving, therfore, he cou
rageously proclaimed the
gospel in Thessolonica. Paul
set an example. He labored by
his hands on a job and then
preached the gospel and
counseled them in the way of
the Lord. He has an attitude
and conduct of love.
Our pastor preached a great
sermon. God blessed as he
preached the word from Exo
dus 3:13-14. "And Moses said
unto God. behold, when 1
come unto the children of
Israel and shall say unto them
the God of your fathers hath
sent me unto you; and they
shaft say to me. what is his
name, what shall 1 sav unto
them? And God said unto
Moses. I am that 1 am. And he
said, this shalt thou say unto
the children of Israel. I am
that sent me unto you."
That same God that sent
,*Maaes,to4?aAA%cWtyKp. ct
Israel, he is the same today.
He told Moses "Put off thy
shoes from off thy feet for the
place whereon thou standest
is holy ground." He is a holy
God. He does not change. He
is the same today. He is the
great I am.
Church, are we on holy
ground? Are we walking in
the light of God or walking to
please man? Let's live to
please God ana one day we
will see him as he is. Jesus is
soon to com- and there are
going to be people who are
like the 10 virgins. Five were
ready and five were left
behind. Are you sleeping or
are you looking and waiting
for the coming of the Lord?
He is soon to come.
Sinner, please get ready
Jesus is coming. Don't forget
our revival April 4. 1982. Rev.
Roy Clark will be at Out Reach
Holiness Church. We invite
you to come be with us.
Singers are welcome to come
help out with many great
songs of joy.
Don't forget our singing the
fourth Sunday evening at
2:30. May God bless and keep
you is our prayer. Pray for us
that we will ever do God's
will.

thanks for the snow, sleet and
rain that fell before our eyes.
We just couldn't belive it, it
was some big surprise. But it
went away almost as quickly
as it came. You know, God,
you sure know how and when
to make a change. Thanks too
for the changes in our daily
living. Without them life
wouldn't be worth living.

"OUR CHURCH
MEANS A LOT TO US."
For as there is no better
way to start a week. At
church, we find friends and
get encouragement. It is
here we get our hope. In
spite of all the troubles
around, we have found our
church gives us hope for the
future.
And most important, we
. found Jesus Christ here.
And it is here that we learn
more about Him. We know
our church is not a perfect
place, but we aren't perfect
either. Maybe that is why our
church means so much to
us ? it accepts us as we are.
There are many good
churches in North . i\|
Carolina.
Ours happens to be %
Baptist During this |
time hundreds of
Baptist churches in
our state are having
what they call
HERE S HOPE services

This is your invitation
to visit a Baptist
church near you. They
will be looking for you.
And we hope you find a
church which means as
much to you as ours
I Mm does to us.
