While Banking Laws require a published statement from time to time, we feel few folks
read them.

Hope this "simplified statement" proves of interest.
Fiscal soundness of any bank is not based merely on size, location or the
thickness of its vault door, but in the basic sense of its management.
Your business will be welcomed.

I will put my trust in Him."
— Isaiah
8:17
T h e pathway of life becomes
easier for us if we are blessed
with the qualities of faith and
trust in God.
For an example, we need only
to look to the life of Christ
upon earth. Christ endured
temptation, suffering, e v e n
death because it was God's will
that mankind should be given
the opportunity to earn salvation. There is no better example of a life of dedication
and service.
Because Christ did " t a s t e
death for every m a n " the pathway to salvation is clearly
marked. It is much easier for
us to place our trust in God,
with the realization t h a t God
will not demand of us so
greatly.
