Fall and Fresh Beginnings
On my "emotional calendar" September 1st is the first day of Autumn and a fresh and wonderful new beginning. I took a phone call this morning out on the patio. The Aspen/Poplars and Locusts are starting to release some of their leaves and though the day is to be warm and humid, there was a hint of cool in the early morning air.The ladies around here took a trip to the candle shop for some fall fragrances so the place is cozy this morning. I hope this fall is a good time for you to grow closer to your family and closer to the Lord.
We are here to help you do that and help you help others do that. If you surf around the site you will find helpful information about the tools we use for that purpose. We would love to meet you, if you are new to us. Friend me on Facebook and introduce yourself. I would love to get to know you and answer any questions you have. I have a special class to get to know folk and introduce them to Evangel that meets every Sunday morning beginning September 12 at 9:45 in my study. (You can read our new Youth and CE Pastor's bio if you click on the link to the right).
Meet the staff, check out our links and programs and listen to a sermon podcast to get a feel for Evangel.
I hope this is a great Autumn for you and your family.
