Hello Church,

“When the doubting storms of life and fear assail . . .” sings the old hymn.  Wow, what a storm we had last Sunday.  Many without power, and challenges with trees over driveways, etc.  We even encountered our first major issue of 2025, Dunkin Donuts had no power so we had no donuts.  BIG PROBLEM!  Of course, the good news is that power seems to be restored, to our knowledge no one was hurt, and Lord Willing, Dunkin will be up and running this Sunday.

When the storms of life come at us so quickly, it is important to know that God is as near as a prayer.  We pray for ourselves and God hears.  We pray for others and God hears.  Others pray for us and God hears.  What a blessing to have the God of the entire creation and universe interested in us.  Wow!

Sometimes we all need to know that others are praying for us.  Did you know that there are groups here at Legacy that pray on a regular basis for the needs of those in the church.  The elders pray for healing for our sick as well as praying for the other needs.  A group of hearty and faithful souls gather every Tuesday evening at the building to pray for the needs that are known.  So many are praying on a regular, daily basis.  If you need prayer, all you need to do is ask.  Folks are regularly praying and if you have a need or desire to be prayed with or for, they stand ready to do this.  Let us know.

Our series on how to behave as a Christian got off to a great start last week.  This Sunday we go further into the sermon on the mount.  Read Matthew 5:17-26 to be ready to dig into the Word.

I can hardly wait until Sunday!  Who are you going to invite?

Dan
