THANK YOU NOTES
Dear Regency congregation, I have worshipped with you for several years,
but never asked you to accept my membership. I do that today. Many of
you know that the month of September has been a full month of illnesses
for me. I want you to know that all your prayers, cards and good wishes
by telephone calls have been appreciated. I thank you for everything and
pray that God will continue to bless one and all. Sincerely, Ken Wear
A note of thanksgiving. The outpouring of love from ‘my family’ has been
great. The calls, cards, everything has uplifted me. Thanks for all the
prayers. I am still needing them. But I now feel like the devil was trying to
get a hold and being with my family I was led by God to take my burdens
to my family. We have a wonderful group of elders helping me get
through this difficult time. Please pray for them also. Please keep Blake in
your prayers also.
I love you all, Your sister in Christ, Mary Spence

Key Ingredients of Christianity
If someone were to ask you, what is the Christian faith all
about, how would you respond? Let me share some key
ingredients of Christianity.
1. We have a supreme being to worship. He is the loving God
in whom we live and move and have our being. See Ephesians
4:6
2. We have a Savior who rescued us. See Colossians 1:1314. He came down from heaven on a mission of mercy to rescue
us from our sins.
3. We have a family to be part of. See 1 Timothy 3:15. We
became children of God when we were baptized into Christ, and
God added us to His spiritual family, the church.
4. We have a divine standard by which to live our lives and
regulate our faith and worship. See 2 Timothy 1:13. It is a pattern
of sound or healthy words.
5. We have an approved way to worship God. See John 4:2324. God seeks true worshipers who will worship Him in spirit and
in truth
6. We have a mission to accomplish. See Mark 16:15-16.
Our overall mission is to grow up in all things to be like Christ.
7. We have a battle to be fought. See 1 Timothy 6:12. Paul
calls it the good fight of faith.
8. We have a reward to receive. See 2 Timothy 4:7-8. We
all look forward to hearing Him say, “Well done thou good and
faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Lord.”
