Suggestions and Concerns
We are always looking for ways to improve. One way is to get feedback from our parents. If you ever have suggestions, comments or concerns, please contact Ms. Celeste or Ms. Heather, either in person or by email (see below). We have had some really good parent involvement meetings. It is not too late to become involved and get on a PTO committee. If you are interested, please email Ms. Belinda (Belinda.Herring@westcobbchristian.org). We can only make this school great with your help! We appreciate you being a part of
RSVP
What do you do when you receive an invitation that has an RSVP at the bottom? It means please reply. It is the polite thing to do without delay. God invites all to come to His Son by His divine power, the Gospel (John 6:44-45). God offers the gift of salvation, and man must receive it by obedience, meeting the conditions prescribed by God (Ephesians 2:8-10). God's Son is the author of eternal salvation to all who will obey him (Hebrews 5:8-9).
Life is such that we do not know when we will hear for the last time the Lord's invitation (James 4:13-15). It is wise to not put off our affirmative answer to the invitation to the feast of salvation. There is an RSVP on this invitation to every individual (Galatians 6:5). Jesus' outstretched arms on the cross should be seen as an offer of an incomparable invitation to lost men to be saved today (II Corinthians 6:2, Matthew 11:28-30, Acts 9:6, Romans 6:1-5, Revelation 3:20). Man could not know God's will and be saved without the Holy Spirit's work in revealing the blood-sealed New Testament (Matthew 26:28, Revelation 22:17).
Pray that all who have been made aware of the message of salvation in the Gospel will quickly and sincerely respond positively to Heaven's invitation. The day will come to each of us when we will have heard our last invitation! All of our opportunities to respond in obedience are this side of death (Hebrews 9:27). Let our RSVP of response to the invitation be "I come, I come."

On Sunday mornings at 7:30, there is a special program called In Search of the Lord's Way on television. This month they are discussing topics about the family and seeing what the Bible says. This is a great study program. Either make your plans to get up early or set your machine to tape it. You won't be sorry. On Comcast, it's Channel 02.
As always, you are invited to attend services here at
There are other congregations of the Lord's church meeting for worship and Bible studies. If you wish, please feel free to contact us to find out if there is one more convenient in location to you.
