Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the men of old received divine approval. By faith we understand that the world was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was made out of things which do not appear.     Hebrews 11:1-3 RSV

This chapter in Hebrews is the beginning of a quick history of Israel, how God worked in and through men and women to accomplish His plans. I can't help but think of the early people of Sharon who struggled to get to worship, and kept going until we became the church we are today. We don't remember their names, but their work lives on in the life of Sharon. Their dreams and prayers have been answered. As we continue on into the next hundred years, we too will leave 'footprints'. So by faith, let us continue to pray and work for God's Kingdom here in Moon Township.

Prayer:   Heavenly Father, as You were with the early founders of our church, may we continue to pray for your guidance and blessings, for the growth and continuation of this, Your church in Moon Township. Thank you in Jesus' name, Amen
