Special Announcement: We are moving

After celebrating week after week for 10 years, PISD is asking us to move over to Sigler on Janwood.  Apparently it is quite expensive to A/C the large cafetorium at Vines.  Sigler will be more economical.  September 6 we begin our new adventure.

Check the map:    View this photo

                                                                                                 

True?  

 Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely

 in a pretty and well preserved body,

 but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out,    

and loudly proclaiming,

 

                                           —WOW— What a Ride !

 

 

                                      Sandra and Nina.

 

See you this Sunday.

Acts 2:   Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them.  And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim.

1 Corinthians 12:To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.

John 14:  The Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you."
