Happy Father’s Day
Pondering what I could write to honor our earthly fathers I
turned to Mr. Google to see what was said about “Father’s Day.” I
was drawn to a few quotes:
“Any fool can be a Father; but it takes a real man to be a
Daddy!” … Phillip Whitmore Snr “The most important thing a father
can do for his children is to love their mother.”… Unknown “Fathers
are angels sent from heaven.” … Unknown “It is not flesh and blood
but the heart which makes us fathers and sons.”… Johann Schiller
“He didn’t tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do
it.”… Clarence Budington Kelland “Blessed indeed is the man who
hears many gentle voices calling him father!”… Lydia M. Child
One night a father heard his son praying, “Dear God, make me a
kind man my daddy is.” Later that night the father prayed, “Dear
God, make me the man my son wants me to be.”… Unknown
At 4 years: My Daddy can do anything! At 7 years: My Dad knows…a
whole lot. At 8 years: My father does not know quite everything. At
12 years: Oh well, naturally Father does not know that either. At
14 years: Oh Father? He is hopelessly old-fashioned. At 21 years:
Oh, that man-he is out of date! At 25 years: He knows a little bit
about it, but not much. At 30 years: I must find out what Dad
thinks about it. At 35 years: Before we decide, we will get Dad’s
idea first. At 50 years: What would Dad have thought about that? At
60 years: My Dad knew literally everything! At 65 years: I wish I
could talk it over with Dad once more. …Unknown
Never forget, we all have a Heavenly Father full of love and
grace just waiting for you to call him … FATHER.

June 11 – 15, 2018
5:30 meal – 6:00 VBS
Come join the fun, fellowship, excitement, and yes there could
be a little work (that is if you call sharing God’s love with a
child - work) each evening as the fellowship building and sanctuary
will be transformed into an uncharted island where kids survive and
thrive on God’s word.
Susan Christian will be working non-stop with this
transformation, so if you have some spare time come by the church,
there will be plenty to do. If you would like to help in any way
during VBS week, please contact Ruth Psencik.
We will need cookies, brownies, and Rice Krispy treats. Monetary
donations are always welcome, but most of all be in prayer for the
children who will be attending and the volunteers who come and
serve the Lord in this way. Registration forms are located in
several areas of the church and on our website: seatonchurch.org.
Several forms have been turned in already; let’s make this the
biggest year yet!

Summer is fast approaching with the temperatures rising and
drying out the land. Pray for rain to revive the crops and
gardens…but never forget God is in control.
