Raising Expectations, May 5, 2025

Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield, Stefanie and Dr Craig Thayer, Dr Paul Hall, and Ron Greer Dear Friends, We will be celebrating Mother’s Day, a beautiful and wonderful occasion indeed! Abraham Lincoln aptly stated, "No man is poor who has a godly mother!" As we ponder this profound statement, we are reminded of God’s beautiful plan and design. As believers, we understand that a godly mother embodies the ‘Heart and Love of Christ’ to her children. She remains cognizant of her influential role and responsibilities over their lives and futures, thus making sacrifices for their welfare without hesitation. This week, our team will share why we are grateful for our mothers and how God guided us through childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood because of them and our dads. We look forward to being together with you and encourage you to think about your mothers and how 20/20 hindsight and perhaps a great amount of personal growth in wisdom and your relationship with God may have given you a new appreciation and understanding of Lincoln’s words! However, most important, a grateful and loving heart for all Jesus has done for you! You may have an opportunity to call in a say a few words about your special Mother! The Team! Pastor Joe Schofield,  Dr. Paul Paul Hall,  Stef Stefanie Shaw Thayer,  Dr. Craig Craig Tank Thayer,  Pastor Ron Ron Greer.
