Service at Meridianville Sunday Morning May 3, 2009210 weeks ago
 
We went with Bro. Terry and Sis. Barbara Wright 1st Sunday morning to Meridianville. Services there were very good. Bro. Greg Mullins testified about the Lord helping him and helping his mind, this led to Bro. Dale asking the ministers if they would like to go ahead. Bro. Royce Estes got up first. He read the 5th ch. of Peter verses 1-11.

"1The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
2Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
3Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
4And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
5Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
6Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
8Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
10But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
11To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."

Bro. Wayne Williams of Williams Cove talked next reading from 2 Timothy 3. This scripture teaches us that in the last days perilous times shall come. Brother Wayne told how he felt that the Children of God are losing their interest in going to church. He also said that he believes the fear of God is not as strong with people as it once was.

Bro. Terry Wright of Sand Mtn. was the last to preach he read from Matthew 24 where Jesus tells the signs of his coming. He also opened the scriptures of chapters 12-13.
