November is the month we focus on THANKSGIVING! For many of us this is a favorite time of year and Thanksgiving Day is a favorite holiday. That’s true for a lot of reasons… savory home-cooked food, fellowship with our family, and a season to reflect on God’s goodness and fullness of blessing in our lives. During this season of gratitude let’s not forget our best and richest blessings: the Holy Scriptures, salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, daily wisdom from God’s Word, the transforming presence of the Holy Spirit, and the blessed hope of Christ’s return and our eternal home in heaven. We are indeed a blessed people of God! I want to express my personal gratitude for God’s goodness in allowing me to serve as pastor of LBC for over 21 years. Thanks also to our dear church family for your loving support and encouragement as I seek to fulfill my assignment from God. Nancy and I want to say a special THANK YOU for honoring us on Pastor Appreciation Day (October 27). We appreciate all the kind words, lovely cards and generous gifts, the special presentation by our LBC Student Ministry, and the delicious luncheon. Everything was so very nice and thoughtful! I’m grateful for our LBC church family and consider it a high privilege to serve our Lord with you. God has uniquely blessed and prepared our church for such a time as this. I’m hum- bled and excited about the ministry God has entrusted to us. It is a Bible-based, Christ-honoring, God-fearing, disciple-making ministry. I pray that we may always be faithful stewards that please and honor our Lord.

November is the month we focus on THANKSGIVING! For many of us this is a favorite time of year and Thanksgiving Day is a favorite holiday. That’s true for a lot of reasons… savory home-cooked food, fellowship with our family, and a season to reflect on God’s goodness and fullness of blessing in our lives.

During this season of gratitude let’s not forget our best and richest blessings: the Holy Scriptures, salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, daily wisdom from God’s Word, the transforming presence of the Holy Spirit, and the blessed hope of Christ’s return and our eternal home in heaven. We are indeed a blessed people of God!

I want to express my personal gratitude for God’s goodness in allowing me to serve as pastor of LBC for over 21

years. Thanks also to our dear church family for your loving support and encouragement as I seek to fulfill my assignment from God. Nancy and I want to say a special THANK YOU for honoring us on Pastor Appreciation Day (October 27). We appreciate all the kind words, lovely cards and generous gifts, the special presentation by our LBC Student Ministry, and the delicious luncheon. Everything was so very nice and thoughtful!

I’m grateful for our LBC church family and consider it a high privilege to serve our Lord with you. God has uniquely blessed and prepared our church for such a time as this. I’m hum-bled and excited about the ministry God has entrusted to us. It is a Bible-based, Christ-honoring, God-fearing, disciple-making ministry.

OUR REFORMATION FOUNDATION

T H E Vo i c e of t he M a rty r s Pl ea s e Pr ay

The most common request of persecuted Christians is “PRAY FOR US.” One of the ways we answer their request is through participation in the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (IDOP), which we observe on the first Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (IDOP), which we observe on the first Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (IDOP), which we observe on the first Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (IDOP), which we observe on the first Sunday of each November. Sunday of each November. Sunday of each November. Sunday of each November. Our goal is simple: We want EVERY CHURCH to “Remember them that are in bonds …” on IDOP Sunday (Heb. 13:3). We also want Christians worldwide to pray throughout the year for those who suffer because of their Christian witness. Watch VOM’s IDOP videos … share with your friends … and pray for the persecuted. http://www.icommittopray.com/

October 31 is the annual commemoration of the beginning of the

Protestant Reformation. LBC is committed to these five Biblical principles that emerged from that movement. They continue to

serve as clear statements on the Bible’s authority, our only hope

of salvation, and God’s purpose in redemptive history.

SOLA FIDE (Faith Alone)
