Excited about this weekend

Don't miss the services this weekend at Emmanuel it is going to be soooooo Good! GREAT as a matter of fact. Last weekend was incredible, God moved in a bunch of peoples lives and messed them up if they weren't already. Coy Arnold from Horatio First Baptist was with us and God used him, thank you God. This weekend the choir will lead us in worship on Sunday morning as they share God's love with us through music. On Sunday night we are preparing for what will be a night of dreams coming true for so many people. We are calling it A night of Giving and we are bringing new and slightly used toys and coats to the church to be given away immediately after the service. Families who need some help this Christmas will be able to pick up toys and coats for their families. The buzz is in the air and we can't wait until Sunday. I hope that you and your family will be in church somewhere and hopefully you are as excited about It as we are! Merry Christmas everybody, help make Christmas a little more special for someone this year, do something nice!

The Gift Revolution

Hey everybody I want to tell you about something that is so exciting! It's called the gift revolution and it is creating alot of stir. If you have time go to www.thegiftrevolution.com and read some of the cool things people are doing for one another. I love Christimas time and everything it represents, it is one of the things I look forward to every year. There is nothing like giving a gift to someone and watching them unwrap it knowing that they will love it. I have also given gifts and watched people be disappointed by what I gave them, bummer! I wonder how the Lord feels every year as many celebrate the gift that He gave us but still there are those who don't even accept the gift at all. Let's make sure that we never take for granted the gift that God gave us.
