MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP GOLF OUTING
Fun, adorable and a big sweetheart = PEPPA
Peppa is a FUN pup, with a great personality! She loves toys and playing with people and will make a great family dog. Peppa gets along well with other dogs, and therefore could join a home with another dog. If your home already has a dog, a meet and greet will be set up at the shelter to make sure the dogs are a good match. If you are interested in meeting Peppa, you should know that she was nervous during the cat assessment, so we do not have a good idea of how she would do around cats. Please let the shelter staff know if you have cats in the home and she can be retested. Peppa is a sweetheart; she would love a home with children to play with her. It is recommended that any children in her forever home are 8 years old and up. She will need a home with a fenced in yard. Peppa is 9 months old and weighs approximately 60 pounds. Because Peppa is less than 1 year old she will need to be signed up for puppy training classes prior to the completion of the adoption process. If you would like to adopt Peppa, please fill out an application at:

“Jimmy” December 1, 1970 ~ January 1, 2022
I DARE YOU TO BE LOVED... When people listen, God speaks. When people obey, God acts. When God acts, people change. May God be merciful and bless us. May his face smile with favor on us. Psalm 67:1 Jesus replied, “All who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them.” John 14:23 REFLECTION: Let’s be careful. This verse from John 14 is not a work-righteousness approach to the Gospel. It may sound like it is, but it’s definitely not. We should consider how we come to faith in the first place. Our faith comes from God. In other words, God takes the first step toward us, He loved us first. The reason is simple. Our sinful nature does not trust God. We have a natural bitterness and suspicion of God. That is why people often raise the question, where was God when...? The truth of our sinful nature was not even exposed until God’s love came to us as Jesus Christ. God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love-not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. 1 John 4:9-10 This is the right order and means by which we attain faith in Christ. A right relationship with God can never be earned, but only confirmed when we accept Christ. PRAYER TIME: Lord God, be merciful to me today. Help me to receive the love You have for me in a Spirit filled way. Continue to open my heart so I may learn to love You, as You have loved me. Bless You Father, for Your first steps towards me. Amen.

“WELCOME BACK!”
“While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven” Luke 24:51 By Rev. Dan Minor - revdminor1945@gmail.com _____________________________________
A sign above the front door of a local restaurant caught my eye. The sign reads, “Welcome Back!” Of course, it is meant to welcome diners back to in-house dining. It made me think of the ascension of our Lord into Heaven. The time line was: Christ’s death …Christ’s resurrection …The Resurrected Christ appears to many believers …then He ascended into Heaven.
I can just imagine the excitement of the heavenly host when Jesus returned to Heaven! The saints were rejoicing! The angels were dancing! God was smiling! Jesus’ earthly mission was completed. He was ready to go home. This was his “Welcome back.”
His ascension means our Lord is in Heaven making intercession for us. In Hebrews 7:25 we read, “Therefore, he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them. Jesus had told His disciples it was necessary for Him to ascend, so the Holy Spirit could descend upon them (John 16:7).
He was born into this world as a humble servant (Philippians 2:6, 7). He ascended into Heaven as the glorified Savior. He came to take on the human likeness (Philippians 2:8). He ascended in Heavenly splendor. He ascended with great authority and power. He will return to earth the same way He left earth (Acts 1:10-11). “‘…and there were loud voices in heaven, which said, ‘The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever.’” (Revelation 11:15).
At the end of the day, our living Lord will say to faithful believers “Well done good and faithful servant …enter into the joy of your Lord” (Matthew 25:23). Since we came from God and go to God, Heaven is God’s “Welcome Back!”
Prayer: Dear Lord, help us to be ready when You call our name. In Your strong name. Amen.
