Dear Faithful Servants at Wyebrook,

A continued thanks for your faithful attendance, work in the ministry and giving here at church. I am blessed by you. Philippians 1:3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you.

We are blessed of God here at Wyebrook. How faithful the Lord has been to us! Recognizing the Lord’s goodness to us is essential because I believe our Praise of him stems from our remembrance of his goodness to us.

Though our praise to God does not erase our problems. We can trust God’s heart when we don’t see his hand.  C. H. Spurgeon

A special thanks to all who donated to our 2018 Chevy 15-passenger van we recently purchased and paid cash for. Thank You!

Director Jim Davis and City Gate will be our guest on Sunday, February 12 at the 11:00 a.m. service with a soup and sandwich luncheon to follow in the gym, which I hope you will be a part of. Please bring some extra for our guests. We were thankful we could give City Gate an extra $1,000.00 for their needs in January.

Please plan to be with us for our annual Sweetheart and Friends Banquet on Saturday, February 18, 6:00 p.m. at Yoder’s in New Holland. Please encourage a couple to come along with you that might be “unchurched.” This could be the beginning of them coming out to the house of God. Cost is mentioned in the bulletin. Please make your check out to Wyebrook as we pay one bill for everyone.

Looking ahead in March, may I encourage you to plan to go with us to Jackson Baptist Church in Jackson, PA for their “Marriage Enrichment Seminar.” Pastor Gary Haskell and his people always do an excellent job of putting things together and the food is great too. The retreat is Friday, March 24 and Saturday, March 25. We will leave at 3:00 p.m. and return on Saturday around 4:30 p.m. Pastor Gary has a good deal with a Holiday Inn 10 minutes from the Church. They have a banquet on Friday evening at 6:30 p.m. and a lunch on Saturday. The speakers will bless your heart. Please sign up early for this. You must make the reservation through Pastor Haskell. The cost is $18.00 per person ($36 per couple) plus the motel room. Plan now to go with us.

Dependent upon the Master,

Pastor Perry
