Time goes on


The picture on the right was taken from our vacation Lanai near Poi Pu Beach in Kauai. Marion and I are still listening to Hawaiian music in our spare time but it is good to be back home and to see our brothers and sisters in Christ at church. Attendance today was in the mid teens but the Lord was there and He blessed the ministry of His word and the fellowship of His people. See my message outline: click here.
The hard truth:
The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture. "Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'
A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the teacher, she's dead."
Heb 9:27-28 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.(KJV)

Kauai 08


Aloha. Marion and I are back home now from our two week vacation in Kauai. It was great. To the left is a picture I took with my cell phone. It was shortly after sun rise at Poipu Beach. I was facinated by the way it turned out. I'm not sure what caused the effect that you see but I call this one "He is coming".
Things were very quiet back home while we were gone. In fact it was so quiet that some of the regular services were canceled. The Puyallup Fair is over now so hopefully the Russells will be back to normal in church attendance. Sister Turner had gall bladder surgery while we were gone and everything come out OK with that and she is doing better. Also, Sister Maxine had a knee replacement surgery on the day that we got home. That surgery was also a success and she is doing well but will be in the hospital a few more days before they let her go home. We had a good visit with her on Tuesday.
Mom seems to be doing OK along with the rest of the family. Sister Turner's brother Ken had open heart by-pass surgery and so far so good with that too. It will be good to be back in church for prayer meeting Wednesday night and Sunday morning. I'll also check in to see how they are doing with our Radio Program "The Beacon of Truth" on KLAY 1180AM Radio. Tune in if you can. We have changed the format to a question and answer style. One week from this Friday will be the First Friday Fellowship at 7PM on October 3rd. We hope to see this turn out to be a regular source of true Christian Fellowship every month at 7PM on the first Friday of the month. Pastor Larry J. Killion

9-7-08



We were still enjoying the blessings of the Labor Day Bible Conference in Seattle last week end. Brother Turner is still working on the DVD copies of the sermons. My message today at TLBC was "What is the Gospel" and the sermon outline notes are posted again on the front page of our church web site. click here.
=============================================
The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Christian School
for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The staff had made a note, and posted on the apple tray:

"Take only ONE. God is watching."


Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was

A large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note,

"Take all you want. God is watching the apples."
