Pastor's Notes:: Woodruff Church of God E-Edition Newsletter June 3, 2014

Pastors Notes:
I just want to say how much I

appreciated the ministry of our
Youth Department, ACTS
Student Ministries on Sunday Morning. They
were in charge of the service and what a tremendous job they did. The dramas were excellent
and used to help set the stage for the message as well as lead in to each point of the message.
The singing was also great and the team followed the leading of the Lord. Everyone did an
awesome job. Pastor Jason preached a heavy message about Choices and the reality of hell and
there were at least 3 who professed Jesus as Lord!!!!! So thankful that our youth are not the
church of tomorrow. They are the church of TODAY!!!!!! Please continue to support the efforts
of all our Church Ministries.

We are so honored to have Pastor & Territorial Overseer of Western Honduras, Manuel Sorto
and his family to be in church with us this coming Sunday. Our church has been connected with
them over the last 3 years because of a special program that the Church of God in South Carolina
has taken on. It partners Pastors & congregations with Overseers, Territorial Overseers and
Educators through Latin America. This program is called PENTECOSTUS and the connections
are called PRIMOs. Primo is the Spanish word for cousin. It also is an acrostic for the things
these cousins will do. One of those things is missionary or missions. It is the concept of
exchange.where we go there and they come here. It is to help better the need, the culture and
how best to help. Sometimes we think we know best how to help them but in reality, it is not a
help at all. I can honestly say that by going to their country and seeing the need and listening to
them talk about how they want to meet that need, I now understand how to best help them. I
know what their goals and priorities are. We are helping them meet their goals and are
effectively, little by little, helping them to accomplish things that they have not have the means
to do. It is my sincere hope that you will not allow anything to keep you from being in the
service Sunday. These are choice servants of the Lord. They consider you their family and want
to see you and meet you. Thanks in advance for loving them and being present to show your
love to them.

I know that the summer is a time for vacations. I am glad for the opportunities that the Lord
blesses us with to be able to get away for a time of rest and relaxation. As your pastor, I just
want to remind you that we should never take a vacation from the Lord. Always keep Him first
and honor Him in everything that you do. Keep the Lords House a top priority and dont forget
to honor Him with your tithes. Honor Him in every area of your life and He WILL bless you!

June 15
th
is Fathers Day. During the service, we will be drawing for
3 special gifts for Fathers that register during Sunday School. We
also will have a special gift for every Father in attendance. What a
great time to have your family together in the House of God. There
will be no service on Fathers Day evening to give our families an
opportunity to spend some time together. I apologize that Camp
Meeting Sunday and Fathers Day Sunday fell back to back, but we
will be back on schedule June 22
