Looking For More
#MotivationMondayatCapri
There is a political uproar in this country over the major discrepancy between the rich and the poor. Like this is something new? Throughout history, man’s greed has fueled way too many fires. Look at 1 King’s and how Ahab wanted Naboth’s vineyard. Ahab already had vineyards and he had more of everything he could ever need but he coveted Naboth’s vineyard and wanted to possess it. When Naboth wouldn’t sell it to Ahab, he threw a hissy fit until Jezebel got it for him at the expense of Naboth’s life. There is nothing wrong with being wealthy until your main goal becomes being the wealthiest. Oliver Twist wanting more was a legitimate request. Someone like Warren Buffet wanting more is greed. So the question again rises. Are you working to build treasures in heaven or on earth? Wise is the person that is doing both.

Capri Weekend
Season is off and running again and what a great start we’ve had. The Capri family has done a great job with inviting neighbors and friends and our attendance numbers are reflecting your work of inviting…711 total this past weekend.
The last two Sunday’s Pastor Curt has preached two great sermons on Encouragement and Telling the Truth in Love. Be sure and let him know how much you have enjoyed him and those messages.
After the 11:15am service our kitchen ministry, under the leading of Cathy McFarland and her awesome crew, served up a fantastic church dinner. This group of volunteers is a ‘well-oiled machine’. And the food is just fantastic…it’s hard to beat an all-church dinner with the cooks we have at Capri.
Then our choir had it’s kick-off for this season with a Hot Dog & Hee-Haw night. We had around 37 come out for the event. We talked about what to expect this season with our concert & Easter Sunday. This is a wonderful choir family that continues to grow and we would love to have you add to our harmony.
Keep up the good work everyone!
Help to Soar
Jesus taught us to love one another. So, what does that entail? Being patient, being kind, not being jealous of someone because they are talented and/or beautiful/handsome. Not being egotistical and thinking of yourself first, being courteous, self sacrificing, not easily irked by others, and only wanting the best for others. If we truly want to be examples of Christ’s love, we need to exhibit all those traits, which will in effect, make us encouragers. You don’t need the gift of encouragement to be an encourager, you only need love. Encourage others in truth, help them to be their best, to learn to soar, and if need be, soar with them. When someone does a good job, tell them. When someone messes up, tell them they’ll do better next time. Let’s be a body of Christians that are known for our love and honest encouragement for one another.
