Pastor Keith's Quill

You will be happy to know that the Focus on Marriage Conference was a wonderful success. The conference came off without a hitch and fifty-nine people were stretched and encouraged during the daylong event. I am excited that we are able to provide this programming for our community. There were four churches represented in the group. All came together and had a great time. We are now looking forward to the ladies gathering in April for the Beth Moore Conference. A good number of ladies are reading the book by Beth and making plans to be at the conference. I would like to thank each one who worked at and attended the simulcast.

Today as I write this quill, we are having the best weather day of the last ninety. I think we are going to turn the corner now and head back into some good Moab weather. I am sure many of us are ready to get out of our houses and spend some time in the wonderful country that God has given to us. And some of you may be able to get back to church without worrying about driving here in a snow storm. God is good all the time.

I would like to share an observation that I have made about the way ministry is changing. I remember not too many years ago visiting many of you on a drop in basis. I would just get in the car, drive around and drop in. That was a fun experience. But over time this routine has changed. Now it is more likely that I will visit people as a need arises or an invitation is extended. It is more a time when you call me when you would like to talk or have a need, rather than me stumbling upon you when you might need to talk. So this is your invitation to call. I never miss an opportunity to visit with those who desire one. I am always open for you to drop by the office, but also to see you at your home or meet you for coffee or lunch. I want to be with you and this seems like the best approach at this time. If we compare it to the medical model, we would never expect our doctor to know when we are feeling bad and then drop by our house for a checkup. We make an appointment and then expect to have his or her full attention. I hope this works for us. I won’t have to depend on my psychic gifts to know when to call and you will have access to me whenever you need it. And do call because I love to visit with you. PK

EVERYONE CAN SERVE

Look for opportunities to serve; don't wait to be asked!  Remember: You can serve without being a part of an "official" ministry. We all can:

  • Extend the word of welcome, whether or not we are official greeters
  • Be listening caring friends, whether or not we are offical lay counselors
  • Be ready to give reason for the hope that is in us, whether or not we are on the evengelism team
  • Be enthusiastic participants and ready to give a hand, whether or not we are on the planning or cleanup committees.
