Note from the Pastor: Knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb

Redemption is similar to the term salvation. The focus of redemption is the payment of a ransom. A great analogy is to purchase a slave from the slave market.

2 Note from the Pastor: Knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ. I Peter 1:18, 19 Redeemed and Redemption are common words used in church vocabulary, but ones that we sometimes don t understand well. Redemption is similar to the term salvation. The focus of redemption is the payment of a ransom. A great analogy is to purchase a slave from the slave market. The price paid to the slave master is the redemption and the slave is now yours. God purchased his redeemed (the Christ followers) from the slave market of sin and the purchase price was the life blood of His Son. Then He took us out of the slave market and legally adopted us as His heirs, His own children. What an incredible truth! What a reminder of our praise to our Redeemer! This week begins our Good News Club ministries at Chapin Elementary. Please be in prayer for these little ones, that each would know Christ and grow in their faith in Christ. Sunday is our annual youth vs adults Super Bowl game. I hope you can play or come and watch us! It is a blessing and a joy to be your pastor! See you on Sunday! Dan New JoyRinger Recruits Needed!

But for here, I am hoping some of you might be able to help a family who has been visiting our church who really need help with clothes for their twin boys. Especially, they need clothes that would be good for school, but anything would help. The sizes needed are 6/7 and 7/8. If you have anything that you could bring, just drop it off in the bag I will have at the Reception Desk this Sunday. The Moveable Feast ladies will lunch this Sunday, at Catch at noon. Please come, but let me know first, so I can have a large enough reservation! See you Sunday! Love, Helen Page 3, Issue 4
