I want to thank everyone for the great time we had last week.  I appreciate every one of you and am looking forward to many years of worshiping together at BBT.  I think last week was not just a appreciation Sunday for me but it was a celebration of this church and what it means to all of us.  I can’t believe the hard work and the dedication from the members of this church.  I want to thank Larry for bringing the message last week on how do we handle our anger.  It was very insightful.  I want to thank all those that helped prepare the meal afterwards, it was terrific!  I really want to thank you for all the nice things said last week and I hope you know how much we love you as well.

This week Chuck Cagel and the “Senior Moments” will be here to sing some Thanksgiving hymns that we love so much.  I am going to preach on  “What is important to God”.  The scripture verses this week will be Matthew 25: 31-46.  This is a parable that Jesus is sharing with his disciples & others on this subject.  We have read this many times and I have preached on this scripture before but it is very important that we understand what our responsibilities are here on this earth.  I hope you will be with us this week as we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving.  I hope you will stop during this season and really thank about what you have to be thankful for.

Please continue to pray for those that need our help and lets be there for the people that need us.  We will enjoy this season if we will take our eyes off ourselves and look at the person in front of you.  I bet you can find some good things about this person and maybe see Christ in everyone.  We love being part of this ministry and we are looking forward to see you on Sunday.  May God keep you and bless you and we will be praying for those that are going to be traveling this holiday.
