FLOWERS TODAY are given in honor of Andy and
Sylvia Lopez. Today they celebrate 57 years of

life and marriage inspires us all. With love, Carmi,
Harold, Catherine, Les, Anne and your grandchildren.
Thought for the Day
Many have a vague idea that they must make some
wonderful effort in order to gain the favor of God. But
all self-dependence is vain. It is only by connecting
with Jesus through faith that the sinner becomes a
hopeful, believing child of God.
