Memorial Day Weekend

This weekend is Memorial Day Weekend. I'm sure you've got plans to enjoy the outdoors, go camping, have a BBQ, or just celebrate your day off on Monday with friends and family.

While we spend time with those that we love, let's take time to remember those brave men and women who have given their lives for the freedoms we enjoy today. Of course, that's what Memorial Day is all about. You would do well to take a few extra moments and pray for our soldiers in harms way today and to also thank those in your family or friends that have someone serving in the Armed Forces. Write them a card or email and encourage them this weekend.

Speaking of the weekend, we are wrapping up our series, "Unlikely Heroes." In similar fashion to our military heores that we pay homage to this weekend, these great heroes of the faith paved the way for the spiritual freedom we enjoy today that is found in Christ.

You don't want to miss this weekend as we look at the last hero, Paul in a message I've titled, "The Unashamed Hero." We're going to have a great service with a special surprise for all that attend.

Hope to see you all there. Thanks again to all you blog readers out there and your words of encouragement. Talk to you tomorrow.
