Lent is a time for us to examine our character before God, allowing Him to examine our innermost being. It is also a time to confess sin and to repent and allow us to be cleansed and made new. It is a time of preparation for re-creation of our hearts and souls before our Lord. It is a good time to recommit our hearts to God so we can seriously walk with Him. Pat and I are truly looking forward to our time of searching together with you and finally being able to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord. Our faith walk together with you all promises to be deep and meaningful. Check the schedule and plan to worship with us.

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.

You have taken one more major step in taking on the task of seeking new pastoral leadership. This now becomes a time when we need to be in earnest prayer. Not so much for the individual whom God had chosen but rather for those whom He has chosen to work with Him in the search process. This is not the time for you and me to be telling this committee how they should move forward or who they should be considering. Why?

Because God tells us in His Word that "our ways are not His ways, nor are His ways our ways." Now it is extremely important that we listen and watch for His revelations as to how we move forward together, so we need to be of one mind and heart and that is we need to know the mind and heart of God Himself.

We can be confident that what God has begun in His people in Lamoine He will continue until He returns. "Being confident of this very thing that He who has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ." So we, together, march forward under the banner of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. God bless you all as you move forward with Him.

Pastor Jim
