A note from Pastor Rand:


“But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.” 

                                                                                                                                         Acts 20:24 (My Life Verse)

It’s 2024! In this New Year I feel this verse applies now more than ever. “None of these things move me!” We must fix our eyes on JESUS, the Author and Perfecter of our faith. I encourage you to run the race that is set before you with endurance, courage and strength.

"Those from among you will rebuild the ancient ruins; You will raise up the age-old foundations; And you will be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of the streets in which to dwell.” Isaiah 58:12

There is an immeasurable amount of shifting happening, in Lemmon, in the US, in the world. In this calendar my prayer is for you to be encouraged by the truth, GOD is the GOD of yesterday, today and tomorrow! This is a powerful statement of hope. Hope that HE was present in your life yesterday, today and a promise HE will be with you tomorrow! The promise that if indeed tomorrow comes, HE will be right there with us! 

As you look at each day, look to THE WORD of GOD and be encouraged. My prayer for you is this, may THE WORD of THE LORD ignite a fire within you and may HIS great purpose come alive in you each day. We have so many wonderful blessings to be thankful for. GOD is doing great and mighty things!!! Seek HIS direction, leading and guidance every day. For you and your family I pray this year is filled with hope and peace. GOD bless!
