Dear Southmoore Baptist Church,

We all pray that we can get back to the good old days.

How long will this pandemic hold us hostage? I’m convinced only God knows. I’m not going to be guilty of minimizing our current condition. And I don’t have a clue of when we begin to live the life of old.

But I do know this, God doesn’t want us to be passive. God doesn’t want us to sit, sulk, or be sad. There is still much that we can do. You ask, “What can we do?”

We can pray. Yes, pray! The Bible teaches us that prayer changes things. Let me suggest you start praying the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6:9-13.

We can be busy serving others. Start in the home. Then branch out to your neighbor or any one in need. You can make a difference. You can change someone’s life. A phone call, a text, a card, or any act of kindness will change lives.

My encouragement to you is to do something. Don’t crawl in a hole and hide. Don’t hide your candle under a bushel. Don’t forget you are the light of the world (Matthew 5:14-15). You have the ability and opportunity to bring light into dark places.

Before I close, I want to share a change in our Sunday morning services. We will begin having only one service on Sunday morning. Starting at 10:00 am August 2, 2020. So, help us get the word out that people will know. Especially, to those who do not read our website.

I’m praying for you. I miss you so much. Can’t wait to see you soon!

Before I close this update, I want to thank you for your continual financial support. We can continue to move forward on the East Wing Project, pay the bills, and support missions.

Southmoore, I’m blessed to be your pastor!

To Live is Christ,
Bro. Danny
