THE WAY IT OUGHT TO BE!

This past week or so I've tried to be observant as to what we've been up to as a church here in Wichita county and there is much reason to praise God. For example:

• The youth took a day to make bierocks for the county fair. Had a good turnout and they worked hard. Some of the youth also went and cleaned the food booth. I checked it out. It looks great!
• Several members of the church have been making and taking meals to those in need. Thanks to all who are giving their time and serving the Lord in this capacity.
• Many have generously responded to Gina's need to raise money for her upcoming mission trip to India. I spoke with her and know she is truly appreciative.
• Thanks to Lee for taking Dale to Haviland for the Emmaus walk.
• Thanks to Mary Lou, Marqueta, and Randy for treating Marge like a queen while Dale was gone. Also thanks to Mike who drove a group to Haviland to bring Dale back to town.
• What about those who helped the Schumachers move on that hot Saturday afternoon? Definitely a labor of love. Helpers included young and old(er) and male and female.
• And what a great evening on Tuesday as the Emmaus group took supper to the Schumachers. More importantly, what a sacred time it was when they all gathered together in prayer in the middle of the living room praying that God would bless the family and the transition that lie ahead.
• And the outreach to the kids continues as 21 of the God Squad kids from outside the church showed up for the Splash Bash at the pool. Great stuff!

These are only a few things that have taken place in the last week, not to mention those things that have taken place behind the scenes. As you can see, the body of Christ is at work in Leoti. And that most assuredly is the way it ought to be!
