Hi everyone!
I am interning for Karis while she is on maternity leave! Both Karis and sweet baby Oliver are home and getting settled. Attached are worship materials for you to use with your children today. Like Karis said, the Early Childhood material is perfect for toddler-kinder and utilizes the Jesus Storybook Bible. Get it here if you do not have a Jesus Storybook Bible. I am thinking and praying for all of you and your families during this time.

Let me know if I can help in any way,
Anna Jane

One of my favorite songs we sing at church is Steadfast, by Sandra McCracken. Commenting upon the song, McCracken said it's all about "God's defiance against all that is broken and his ultimate victory over those things." This song is balm to my soul during this uncertain time. Markets are crashing. Hospitals are overwhelmed. Many are feeling isolated and alone. And yet, God is steadfast, God is here, we are not alone, God still reigns, and God's love endures forever.

I encourage you to spend a few minutes listening to Steadfast. Invite the Spirit to remind you of what is real, what is true, and what is everlasting. Invite the Spirit to comfort and encourage you.


Please, if you need prayer or encouragement, please reach out to me.

Sincerely,
Pastor Coby

Hello, Family,
I hope this finds you safe, healthy and Peaceful, my friends. Please know I am covering you and yours in prayer as we continue to navigate this season together. Attached are worship materials for you to utilize for your kiddos tomorrow. Again, the Early Childhood material is appropriate for toddler- kinder (although my family all participated in the lesson last week and my older elementary boys were blessed by it!) and utilizes the Jesus Storybook Bible. There is a youtube link to the story if you don’t have a Jesus Storybook Bible. The elementary material will go along with the lectionary text and help to spur conversation with your school aged kiddos.

God be near and very present in your family, friends.
Much Love,
Karis

The first time I remember strength training for football I was in the 3rd grade. I had just started my 14 year football career, playing for the Sagemont Cowboys. Our coach was teaching us proper form for push-ups. The only thing I remember him telling me was, "Cagle, don't forget to breathe!" I didn't realize it, but I was focusing so hard on doing something new, something hard, that I failed to breathe.

While breathing may seem obvious, you'd be surprised how often people forget to breathe properly when doing something difficult. And yet, the body needs oxygen for muscles to function well. Getting stronger isn't just about proper lifting. It's also about proper breathing.

I've been thinking about the advice my little league coach gave me as I've encountered all the new and difficult things Covid-19 is bringing our way. In addition to all the necessary adjustments we are making to ensure fewer people get the virus, we are also adjusting to new schedules, new work environments, and isolation. Don't forget to breathe.
