BONHOEFFER'S FOUNDATION!
 
Dear Snyder's Church Family and Friends,
 
This Sunday we continue as a people of the Resurrection.
We shall read St. John 14: 1 - 14 and the sermon title is
"The Way To God!"
We shall sing "Precious Lord Take My Hand"; "Amazing Grace";
"How Great Thou Art" plus other music selected for the service.
Jeff will share the Children's Moment and we shall conclude our Service with Holy Communion.
 
As I am "cleaning out" much of my book library I took time this week to read a story about Dietrich Bonhoeffer. He was a Lutheran Pastor and theologian, imprisoned by the Nazis and then just days before his prison was liberated, he was hanged.
 
Bonhoeffer is one of our great 20th century persons of faith. He wrote these words: "Faith means the finding and holding fast of this foundation [the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ]. It means casting anchor upon it and being held fast by it. Faith means founding my life upon a foundation which is outside myself, upon an eternal and holy foundation, upon Christ."
 
We need to hear that and receive it again today and it is my prayer that we at Snyder's Church can help you in your foundation journey.
May you truly be blessed today and may you also truly be a blessing to others in the name of Christ.
God loves you and so do we.
We are hoping to greet you in Church this Sunday morning.
Pastor Bill
