Can you imagine 200 years of God's working in Lamoine, Maine? The people who voluntarily gave to build the church buildings, to support all those pastors and their families so that they could do the work of the ministry? Whoever said, God isn't faithful?
This is the year that we at Lamoine Baptist Church celebrate 200 years of ministry and all who have gone on before us faidthfully attending and supporting God's work here in this place. Just think, God had chosen you and me to do His bidding so that His work will continue here.
Wasn't it Paul who wrote, "Rejoice in the Lord always, I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally. brothers (and sisters) , whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is praiseworthy - think about such things."
That is just what we want to do during this time of celebration. We want to think about all of those wonderful works of God which have happened in the past 200 years to bring us where we are today to the Praise and Glory of God. It has always been and continues to be today HIS WORK. PRAISE GOD!
Won't you come and join us in celebration.
