the Second Coming of Jesus Christ as the Blessed Hope and encouragement

MISSION STATEMENT
Can you believe that summer is almost gone and it is
already time to start thinking about school again?
I want to share an exciting decision made by the
church board just this week, in an effort to make
Adventist education at Lubbock Junior Academy
(LJA) much easier financially.
The decision? To offer 50% off tuition for ALL
children in grades K-8 of our Lubbock Seventh-
day Adventist church members for the upcom-
ing school year.
This rarely heard-of commitment (a first for me to
experience), comes from a place, as I see it, of
wanting to see each of our children have both a
great quality education while being fully prepared
spiritually to be ready when Jesus pierces through
those clouds again.
Would you prayerfully consider joining us at tomor-
row’s registration?
AND… Whether your plans include LJA next year
or not, I want to invite you and your children out for
a wonderful time of food (pizza) and fun on a 30 foot
trampoline (pictured below).
See you tomorrow, Sunday, July 29, from 2-4 pm!
Pastor Ray

REACH OUT TO JESUS Ralph Carmichael
(Closing Song)
Verse 1 Verse 2 Is your burden heavy Is the life you're living As you bear it all alone Filled with sorrow and despair Does the road you travel Does the future press you Harbor danger yet unknown With its worry and its care Are you growing weary Are you tired and friendless In the struggle of it all Have you almost lost your way Jesus will help you Jesus will help you When on His name you call Just come to Him today
Chorus He is always there
Hearing ev'ry prayer Faithful and true
Walking by our side In His love we hide All the day through
When you get discouraged Just remember what to do
Reach out to Jesus He's reaching out to you
