FROM OUR PRESIDENT
SEPTEMBER 2009
I did it!
Greetings:
It seems that I have more things on my summer “to do” list than I have remaining summertime. It, also, seems like this happens to e a lot more often than years ago. Some might say it is part of getting old. I want another answer. I think it has to do with priorities.
There are some things more important than others. Since people are different, people priorities are also different. Seasons and holidays make for different priorities at different times. (Springtime is a time when fishing is a high priority to me.)
Young people today have many things to include in a priority list that we did not have. Some of us cannot make any decisions or priority or non-priority things.
If you make it a priority to be in church more Sundays than not, for the rest of the year, I know it makes your other priority matters easier. As soon as we prioritize with words like “every”, “always”, “never-miss” we set ourselves up to fail.
A priority of “one more than half” for the Sundays left in 2009 can be easily achieved. I know you will find your other “priority” items will not suffer from you being in church; it most likely will help.
Take the priority challenge. See you Sunday.
s/ Bob Goldman, Council President
