We will be going to see the Braves take on the Marlins Sunday August, 29 at 1:05. We will be staying afterward to see Kutless. We will be leaving immediately after morning service, so please bring a sack lunch for the bus ride there. Tickets are $12, and are going fast. We will be getting back to church around 8:00 that evening. Please see Pastor Gabe to reserve a ticket or for more information.
This year’s Be The Church was focused on kids and teenagers. We were wanting to get out in the community and Be The Church. We did this through giving out bookbags, health screenings, car washes, haircuts, and tons of other stuff for free. This is an annual event that we do to make an impact in our community and let them know that we are Middle Georgia’s Family Church.
The youth did all of the car washes and passed out bottles of water to everyone. We also handed out free Static T-Shirts and signup cards for a drawing Wednesday Night for a Free iPad. It was a great event and we had a great turnout. Be sure to check out the Be The Church 2010 section of our Photo Gallery.
8 So Abram said to Lot, “Let’s not have any quarreling between you and me, or between your herdsmen and mine, for we are brothers. 9 Is not the whole land before you? Let’s part company. If you go to the left, I’ll go to the right; if you go to the right, I’ll go to the left.”
10 Lot looked up and saw that the whole plain of the Jordan was well watered, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, toward Zoar. (This was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.) 11 So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east. The two men parted company: 12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, while Lot lived among the cities of the plain and pitched his tents near Sodom. 13 Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.
14 The LORD said to Abram after Lot had parted from him, “Lift up your eyes from where you are and look north and south, east and west. 15 All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever. 16 I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth, so that if anyone could count the dust, then your offspring could be counted. 17Go, walk through the length and breadth of the land, for I am giving it to you.”
18 So Abram moved his tents and went to live near the great trees of Mamre at Hebron, where he built an altar to the LORD.

3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 5For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. 6If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
12Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
