Pass It On.
“Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he will not depart from it.”
Proverbs 22:6
I met a man named Steve, a retired engineer and building contractor. He said his dad was a physician who practiced for over 40 years. Steve shared that his dad was a great doctor with a wealth of knowledge.
However, he said that his dad died without sharing his insight with the next generation, which could’ve benefitted from his knowledge.
This has prompted Steve to start teaching an online plumbing course. In this way, he can share his expertise with the next generation.
Moses reminded the children of Israel about the importance of passing knowledge to the next generation in Deuteronomy 11:19. “Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up…”
Unfortunately, after the death of Joshua, who succeeded Moses, and the elders of that generation, the children of Israel didn’t know the Lord…
“All that generation also were gathered to their fathers; and there arose another generation after them who did not know the Lord, nor yet the work which He had done for Israel.”
Judges 2:10
Because they didn’t know the Lord, they started to follow other gods, with disastrous results.
Let’s remember to share our knowledge with the next generation. Your wisdom will make a difference in their lives, Pass it on!
“We will not hide these truths from our children; we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the LORD, about his power and his mighty wonders.” Psalm 78:4

March Community Church Ministry Newsletter
Are you ready for March? Or, maybe I should ask… Are you ready to march?
When you are in the Lord’s brigade, you have marching orders. He calls us to go forward, working to advance the Kingdom.
The great thing about this army is that our leader goes before us.
“But the LORD is the one who is marching before you! He is the one who will be with you! He won’t let you down. He won’t abandon you. So don’t be afraid or scared!”
Deuteronomy 31:8 CEB
What a comfort! We don’t have to be afraid, because He is faithful, and won’t let us down.
Community Church Ministry is marching forward.
March starts slowly, Lord willing, with Dutch Gardens MHP on March 9th and Callier Forest Apartments on March 13th.
Then, Easter egg hunts begin on Saturday, March 25th with a triple header: 12 noon- Shade Tree MHP, 2 pm- Pine Village MHP, and 4 pm- Darlington MHP.
Swan Lake MHP is on March 27th and Ashland Park Apartments is on March 30th.
Please pray for no rain, for receptive hearts, and for volunteers.
Please let me know if you or your group would like to help with one of these events, or with the 8 Easter egg hunts scheduled for early April.
God bless you!–
Blessings!
