FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Don’t let your worries

get the best of you; re-

member, Moses started

out as a basket case.

Cars aren’t the only

things recalled by their

maker.

THE AMOUNT OF SUCCESS WE ACHIEVE DEPENDS ON THE AMOUNT OF SINCERE DESIRE WHE HAVE.

“GARDEN FOR SUCCESS”

First, plant five rows of peas:

* Preparedness

* Promptness

* Perseverance

* Politeness

* Prayer

Next to these, plant three rows of squash:

* Squash Gossip

* Squash Criticism

* Squash Indifference

Next, five rows of lettuce:

* Let us be faithful

* Let us be unselfish

* Let us be loyal

* Let us love one another

* Let us be truthful

No Garden is complete without turnips: * Turn up for meetings

* Turn up with a smile

* Turn up with a new idea

* Turn up with real determination

MINISTRY WORKER SPOTLIGHT

Our Van Drivers: Tim Jesse and Earl Ingrum

How blessed we are…. here at Centennial Baptist for

having 2 dedicated gentlemen who month after month,

year after year provide a driver for our church van to reach those

who need a ride to church services. They also keep up the mainte-

nance on the van so if it is needed for a trip, it will be ready. Thank you

Tim & Earl for your continued commitment in driving the church van

around Mexico.

But be sure to

fear the Lord and

serve Him

faithfully with all

your heart;

consider what

great things He

has done for you.

1 Samuel 12:24

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

With the heart

one believes,

resulting in

righteousness,

and with the

mouth one

confesses,

resulting in

salvation.
