The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul.
The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever.
The decrees of the Lord are firm, and all of them are righteous.
Psalm 19 vs. 7 - 9
Should GFEC do a Holiday Bible Club this year? How could you /
should you be involved? What will the theme be? Please join us
to think about the above on Monday evening. Coming to share
ideas and suggestions will not commit you to anything.
