Concerning Sunday School on June 3rd
Sorry for not being able to teach the material to you all on Sunday. The Lord's providential hand lead us to join the Youth Group, which I think was good for two reasons in light of the recent transitions going on. First, we were able to show the Youth Group that there actually is something after Youth Group. Secondly, we were able to extend a warm welcome to the new comers in our group (Courtney Nichols and Katrina Vance). There are others, however, those gentlemen were out of town I believe. I will use the material I handed out to you on Sunday morning as our lesson plan. I encourage you to read ahead and formulate questions in your mind.

Sunday School Highlights
This past Sunday we continued our journey through the book of Deuteronomy. We began to explore the first section of the book's summary statement 'God chooses His people, His people must choose Him.' Therefore, we studied the first aspect of how God chose the Israelites as His special people. It wasn't because of their righteousness but out of His love for them. Remember what kind of people they were? They were insignificant to the world, they were slaves turned vagabonds wondering in the desert. They were small and stiff-necked. All more the reason for God to turn from them, but no. He embraced them with love and showered them with grace. Just think of our own salvation. Each one of us has a past, has a history, has string of issues that follow us each day. That past tells us that we are like the Israelites, undeserving of the Lord's grace and love. Just take some time and meditate upon these verses, Eph. 1:3-4. What comes to your mind?
