Thanks!

Reality at times falls short of anticipation...you know, the excitement leading up to an event or relationship encounter that is dashed when things don't turn out as one hopes.  Disappointment marks these experiences that we all have had from time to time.  That is not the case for Vacation Bible School 2013 at Westwood.  What a wonderful week!  So much time, effort, and prayer goes into this annual labor of love and this year was certainly no different.  Hopeful anticipation was realized as children and workers made this a week to remember.  Thank you Westwood for investing so much in the spiritual growth of children.  Let us continue to anticipate what God will do through the seeds that have been planted this week.  To our directors, teachers, youth and children...THANKS FOR A GREAT WEEK!
 
Our youth leave Sunday for a Impact! Virginia.  Every year they anticipate a great week of hard work and ministry opportunity as they help to rebuild houses and lives.  They make such a lasting difference in so many lives.  We will commission and send them out in the early moments of worship Sunday so plan to be present for this special time and to pray for them throughout the week.
 
Let us continue to anticipate the blessing of God's presence as we gather for worship Sunday morning  and as we consider future ministry and fellowship opportunities.  We will find God faithful.
