Free Oil Change

Today, Hesston MB Church in conjunction with Lord's Lubers hosted our free oil change. I am thankful for another great day of serving. First of all, God answered prayer about it not raining while we were doing the oil changes. Second, after a non-existent sign up, we were able to change oil on 25 cars. Praise God!

Why do we do this? Because of our relationship with Jesus and wanting to share that love with others.

Thanks to those who made the community outreach possible! Here is the list:
  • 5 men from Lord's Lubers to supervise & change oil
  • 12 men from Hesston MB to work on cars both under the hood and vacuuming & cleaning windows
  • 8 women who provided goodies and drinks while people waited on their cars
  • 5 women who visited with people during the oil change
It is great to see how God uses each of our gifts to accomplish His will here on earth. I am thankful for each and every person we were able to make contact with today.

Sermon Notes-"Transitional Thoughts"

Introduction: As I was thinking and praying about what to share during my final sermon on staff, I began to think of the transition that I am making as well as the church.   We as pastors have been consistently focused on three priorities over the last several years: prayer, worship and equip.   So, even though I may no longer be on staff in a few weeks at this church, as a member of this church I believe just as strongly that Hesston MB needs to continue to be about these priorities in the days ahead.   However, the more I prayed about it, the more I realized that to get to these priorities, we as a church also had to make some transitions so that is why I am entitling this message “Transitional Thoughts”.   Transition is defined as “the process or an instance of changing from one form, state, activity, or place to another.” Educate to Equip- Ephesians 4:11-16 ·          What is the difference?   o    To educate the focus is information; to equip the focus is transformation o

Sermon Notes "Plans" based on Acts 10:24-48

Introduction: I would like you to think about the word “plans”. Write down on your bulletin some plans you have for: this week, summer, your future, etc.   I am a planner so I love to know what is going to happen.   Yet we also need to keep in mind a Scripture from Proverbs 19:21 “Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.” We are going to see from the story of Peter and Cornelius, two great leaders who had plans yet God had a different plan and purpose for them and for others. Prepared- vs. 24-29 ·          Vs. 23-24-Peter and Cornelius have visions (10:1-23) o    Peter is told not to call common what God has made clean (15). As Peter is trying to figure out what it means, some men come and find him. o    Cornelius is told to call for a man named Peter and is given his location and he sends his servants to find him. o    Peter makes preparations and goes to Caesarea, Cornelius gets ready for his guests and invites his close fr
