Encouragement Service

We have currently been looking at "Jesus - A Man Who Understands." Last week we talked about the fact that Jesus understands our temptation to quit. Therefore yesterday we had an "Encouragement Service." The service was designed to encourage the church and others through our 60 minutes together.
We spent time discussing how God encourages us. We had encouragement stations set up around the room with questions for people to answer. We will talk more about the questions in the following days.
Then we spent time writing encouragement notes to each other. We had people write down thier names on the 3 X 5 card and then we passed out the cards and another person wrote an encouragement note to the person.
Finally we spent a few mintues writing encouragement notes to teachers and staff at Whittier Elementary School. We wrote 50 encouragement notes...
It is good to be encouraged!
