Here and There
We were tremendously blessed last Sunday afternoon with a lesson from Karl Jones. We thank him for using a “Sunday night off” to come be with us. He is Helen Jones’ favorite preacher, and incidentally his mother. Thanks, Helen for doing such a good job of raising a son and giving him to the Lord for the work of the kingdom.
He brought thanks from the Burleson elders for the contribution of $1,000 we made to help in the construction of a new building in Mexico. One of our members also made a contribution of $500 toward that work as well.

The church offices will be closed tomorrow in honor of Memorial Day. Give some attention to the purpose of that memorial. Memorials are valuable for us as citizens of this country and they also were well used by God to keep us in mind of His gracious benefits on our behalf. This will also be the topic of my Sunday morning sermon.

Mack Lyon has invited Phil Sanders to return for another lesson on In Search of the Lord’s Way this coming week, June 3. His topic will be: “Why Did Christ Die?” You can join him for that lesson on channel 27, KDFI-TV at 7:00 a.m.
“The Truth in Love” TV program also is worthy of your time. It comes on Channel 52 at 7:30 a.m. with Eddie Parish doing the speaking.

We close out the month of Sundays with our extended worship in song at the afternoon service. Please come and enjoy singing praises to God and the fellowship of your brothers and sisters as we blend our spirits in worship at this special worship time.
