Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants. Deuteronomy. 32:2

Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” Hosea 6:3

They waited for me as for showers and drank in my words as the spring rain. Job 29:23

  3. Old Talon: A good old-fashioned spooky story about a mysterious apparition named Old Talon terrorizing a remote Appalachian community. An Appalachian dulcimer figures prominently in the story.

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9

Then He [Jesus] said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:37-28

Beth McClusky

JULY 26, 2022

Beth passed last night about 11:30 p.m. after a long illness. More later as we learn of any services.

Beth was a lot of fun and her energetic spirit will be missed.

Jesus said, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” Matthew 5:4

‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Revelation 21:4
