Norm’s Notes February 20, 2014

Pastor Norm

Random Thoughts

Vacations are fun. On vacation we have helped the economy of central Florida, seen some FMCers who have permanent status in Florida and some FMC snow birds, we’ve also seen the white sand beaches (they look like fine snow when it is -20 degrees only they are very hot). And I went to the Ringling Brothers Circus museum. That was very interesting. In its prime it took 1500 people to do the circus, including 800 performers. They started setting up at 3 a.m. and tore it down by 1 a.m. the next morning to move to the next city. The big top held 15,000 seats. There were 100 horses plus other animals, all decked out with leather and rhinestones. For 30 years the same man made all the animals’ outfits and he was totally blind.

There are three movies coming to theaters in the near future. Do not go see them with other believers. Use these movies as a spring board for those who are taking their first step toward Jesus. Take non-believers with you.
Son of God
Heaven is For Real
God’s Not Dead

Fox News recently did a 13 minute segment on the work Samaritan’s Purse is doing in Iraq. Near the end it includes some pictures of shoe boxes being distributed, just like we make for Christmas.
