Bible Classes/VBS – After much prayer, receiving input from medical personnel, and discussion, our shepherds have made the difficult decision to cancel our annual Family Vacation Bible School for this year. Many thanks to John and Robyn Lampley who were ready to hit the road running when the go head was received. Because of this year’s cancellation, we are already looking forward to VBS 2021. Also, it was hoped that we would be able to resume regular Bible Classes soon, however, the decision was made to not resume at this time. The number of Covid-19 cases will be monitored monthly, and plans will be made to resume classes as soon as it seems prudent to do so.

Reading for today: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. John 10:1-3 (His Life Devotional Book page 160)
