Pastor Ken Horning
Red Run News – Sunday, July 17, 2011
In our service today, the children sang “Rock of Ages,” a song they had learned in our Summer Bible School a few weeks ago. The choir sang, “My Life Flows On.” We sang one of Emma Good’s favorite hymns “Jesus Paid it All” and Edith Gehman’s favorite hymn “We Praise Thee, O God.” We also enthusiastically sang the hymn “Follow On.”
During the children’s time, Pastor Kevin Weaver displayed some weeds and talked about the effects of weeds in a garden. His message was on the parable of the weeds and the good seeds from Matthew 13:24-30. Kevin showed us two cartoon clips: the parable of the soil and also of the good shepherd. God is good, and the whole world belongs to God. However, we can expect struggle and trouble here in this world. That’s why we need to encourage one another. But the end is coming. Let us be faithful to God, doing what pleases Him – no matter what.
A memorial service for Pastor Kenneth Horning was held this afternoon at Oley Mennonite Church. Ken was the pastor at Red Run in 2001-02. We remember him as a man committed to Christ and the church.
As always, we brought to God the needs among us along with thanks to God for His goodness.
We look forward to August 21, which is our Sunday at Woodcrest. The church service will be held at 11 a.m. at Woodcrest, followed by a fellowship meal which will include the chicken BBQ prepared by Willis and Anna Mary Burkholder.
