Don't Give Up!

Our inability to finish what we start is seen in the smallest of things:
A partly mowed lawn.
A half-read book.
Or, it shows up in life's most painful areas:
An abandoned child.
A wrecked marriage.
Any chance I'm addressing someone who is considering giving up?
If I am, I want to encourage you to remain.
I want to encourage you to remember Jesus' determination on the cross.
Jesus didn't quit. but don't think for one minute that he wasn't tempted to.
Did he ever want to quit? You bet.
That's why his words are so splendid.
"It is Finished" - John 19:30

Gift Card Shower

The wonderful people of the Pelham COGOP keep surprising us each month. Due to the great grocery showers given us in April and May we ask the church to omit the June grocery shower. Well they did, but surprised us with a wonderful "Gift Card" Shower. We received $120.00 worth of Gift Cards to three of our favorite restaurants. We are honored to be the pastoral team at the Pelham Church of God of Prophecy.
