Direction for Life

 Pastor’s Pen,

Sunday:   Direction for Life                                                                     Proverbs 3:1-6                                                          

Ever find yourself in a strange city, needing to get somewhere, but not sure how? You have directions, or even a GPS. But maps can confuse, and even a GPS can mislead at times!

These days when you rent a car, there’s usually some onboard guidance system.  But even the best systems won’t work unless (1) the device is hooked up properly and (2) the driver trusts it and follows instructions. 

Solomon, who wrote many of these pithy sayings that communicate general life principles, was in the process of giving instruction to his son.  Here he shares four keys to finding God’s direction in life.

We appreciate those who help sanitize our facilities for services each Saturday morning in in in in in in in in in in in preparation for Sunday worship as well as those who make it possible for us to ‘live-stream’ on Facebook at 10:45 each Sunday morning, and to post each Sunday’s message on our website (www.fccwylie.org) on Sunday afternoons. 

 

When you enter the sanctuary Sunday, after you are given a bulletin, stop by the communion table where the offering plates are located in the rear of the worship center and pick up your disposable communion cup. Then following the service, please dispose of it in the trash can. (Mark 10:45) 

 

We continue to hold our Sunday services with all safety protocols and pre-service sanitizing in place. No Sunday school yet, and the nursery is not available.  We are now following the latest CDC guidelines which allow fully vaccinated individuals to go without masks. We use bulletins printed untouched by human hands, with songs, etc. printed therein, and pre-packaged communion elements. Offering plates are located at the rear, or giving can be done online at www.fccwylie.org.

 

If you still feel uncomfortable attending, feel free to join our live stream on Facebook, at 10:45 AM, which includes communion and the worship hymns. Or the message is available each Sunday afternoon on our website. (www.fccwylie.org)
