Mission Statement
Shawn Freeman
Youth & Bridge Minister
Next week is Senior Sunday! It
will be a day of celebration and
thanksgiving with our students who
are graduating from high school.
Here is some advice that I would
like to offer each of the seniors that
also pertains to all of us:
1.
Surround
yourself
with
Christians. God sends us each other
so we can help each other.
(Hebrews 10:24)
2. Read your Bible daily. It will
transform your life and give you the
wisdom of God to handle everyday
situations. (Hebrews 4:12)
3. Pray daily. Good communication
is
essential
to
any
good
relationship. Spend time talking to
God. He is willing to listen.
(Matthew 6:6)
4. Love others. Love is an action
word. Put your faith into action by
loving others. Loving others will
show you love God. (Matthew
22:36-40)
5. God will always love you. Each
of you will make some mistakes.
Each of you will have struggles that
seem too difficult to bear. God is
waiting for you with arms wide
open to offer forgiveness.
(2 Corinthians 12:9)
6. You always have a home at
Memorial. You will always be
welcome here. If you ever need
anything, you know where to find
us.
I am proud of the young men and
women y’all have become. My
prayer is that God uses you to be a
light for him. God bless each of you
as your journey continues!
The Memorial Church of Christ exists to glorify
God and to develop followers of Jesus by building
up the community of believers and reaching out to
the community at large.
