Well, so far we’ve survived the prediction of snow and an ice storm, loss of power, etc. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those areas who were not so fortunate. February is shaping up to be cold as well, but we’ll just have to wait and see if it will be a repeat of January.

February is the month of Valentines, hearts and flowers, boxes of chocolates. A time when “a young man's heart turns to love” or so they say. Why not also make it a month of loving our Creator more, loving and supporting His church and caring for each other as He cares for us.

We have an opportunity this month to share in the work of NC WMU through the Heck Jones offering. This offering goes to support all  missionary efforts in NC and is the only       funding we get for the year. The goal for our church again this year is $500.00, and I feel we can meet that goal and maybe more. Whatever we give as a church, along with offerings from across the state, stays here in NC supporting the many ministries of WMU.

Speaking of which, our February meeting will be February 4th, 4:30 here at the church.  All  ladies are invited to come and be a part of a mission minded group of ladies. Bring a pen; we’re addressing Valentine cards!
