God’s Blessings of Love, Peace, Compassion, Grace and Healing be upon you and yours.  My hasn’t time flown this summer as we head into fall?  The recent rains have truly been a blessing for most of us.  For some it has been disastrous as so many have lost their lives in flooding of road crossings, etc.  Our prayers go out to all that have been impacted by the Hurricane Florence on the East Coast with all the devastation that they have experienced.  Our prayers also extend to the many involved in the rescue and recovery efforts that will be ongoing for quite some time.  Just like Houston and the Gulf Coast recovery which has been going on now for over a year.  It stresses a lot of people including the victims and our resources.
Please continue to pray for them to have patience and compassion and healing.  United Methodist Committee On Relief (UMCOR) has been stretched to offer help to so many and as you can please donate so that they have the resources they need in order to help the victims.  100% of your donations to UMCOR goes directly to the victims, the administration fees are paid in our Missional Giving each year.  There are so many so called “Charities” on TV, newspapers, etc. that keep most of the money for themselves that it makes us wary.
We have received the 2018 Charge Conference paper work and our Committees will be working overtime until the end of October, getting these completed.  When we do this process, we will be looking at what we are doing right and what things need to be fine-tuned or eliminated to better serve God in our community.  Are we serving God, or ourselves?   We know that if we are serving ourselves that we will fail, but if we serve God then it will be a success.  Thank you for reading and God’s Blessings be with you!  YBIC Pastor Ken
