A Changed Family
Our Sunday School lesson this week was on A Changed Family. This was about when Paul and Silas were beaten and thrown into jail for casting out the demons in a young girl. Instead of showing hatred Paul and Silas sang songs and witnessed to other prisoners. Read Acts 16 to see how this changed lives of the jailer, his family and fellow prisoners. I could not help but think this morning with the many funerals that are being held now, their families are also experiencing a forever “changed life”.
Sympathy is extended to the families of Kim Giles Miles, Ricky Myers, Nadine Goolsby, Doris Delcomyn and Helen Rochinski. In their loss of loved ones.
