     Isn't it great to be saved and to be a part of the wonderful loving family of God.  The Lord not only saves us but He gives us a guide who is the Holy Spirit and a book called the Bible for us to follow that we might live a Blessed Life.  Have you ever gone somewhere and got lost?  Alice and I were driving to New Jersey once and we took the wrong exit on highway 95 and went into New York city by mistake.  It wasn't long before we were hopelessly lost.  Being lost didn't seem to stop me from driving and driving and driving, even when I didn't know where I was going.  We finally stopped and asked a man for instruction to get back onto highway 95.  He told us to go down three blocks and at the lights turn right, go two more blocks take a left, then go through four sets of lights, turn left and follow the signs from there.  I said, 'thanks a lot.'  He looked back and said, 'Listen, if you miss that first right....chop it up.'  In other words if you don't do the first thing right then the second thing and the third thing and the forth thing doesn't matter.  Our salvation is the first right thing to do to get back on the road of life.  If you miss salvation then all the roads and rabbit trails that you head down will never lead you to eternal life in Heaven.  You are greatly blessed and highly favoured.
            This Sunday morning I'll be sharing on, 'Along The Way.'  Whether we like it or not we must begin the walk by faith by beginning to walk even when we know that we have plenty of faults and failures.  Sunday evening I'll be sharing on, 'How's Your Vision.'  We all have 2 sets of eyes.  Our natural sight and our spiritual sight.  It's the eyes of our understanding that have to be opened to understand the Kingdom of God.   
            Coming up on Feb 22nd and 23rd we are having as a guest speaker Pastor Ted Yuke.  We are planning a Saturday evening 7 pm Leadership meeting.  Pastor Ted has worked with church leaders around the world and has given them some keys to leading that would be helpful for us all to hear.  This service is for anyone involved in helping out anywhere within the church.  Ushers, Sunday School teachers, choir, orchestra, greeters, set up, tear down crew, any leader is welcome or anyone looking to be a leader in the future should try their best to be here.  Pastor Ted will also be sharing with us on Sunday morning and there will be no evening service as we want to give everyone the opportunity to attend the Leadership meeting on Saturday evening.
            Continue to pray for those in need.  Looking forward to seeing you on Sunday, lots of love, Pastor Kevin and Alice
