2005 Theme

The elders have presented quite a challenge for us this year.  It is a challenge that we should already have undertaken as Christians; working together (joined, knit), doing our own part (every joint supplies) for the edification of the whole as presented in the above verses from Ephesians 4:15-16.

Ask yourself, how can I help?  What is it that I can do that would be for the good of the body?  What talents do I have that would be useful?

Can I say something nice to someone, encourage them?
Can I teach a class?
Can I have one of the members into my home?
Can I write cards of encouragement or sympathy?
Can I cook meals for those that may need some help?
Can I be an example?
Can I visit the sick?
Can I smile and shake someone's hand?

We might think that some of these duties are meaningless or miniscule, but each one is important in the Lord's work.  We need people to smile and say kind things as much as we need someone to teach a class or preach a sermon.  You are important in the Lord's work!  You are important to the Lord!  You are important to the members that meet at Embry Hills!  Please continue to work with us and help us as we strive to please God by each one doing our part, working together for the whole.
