Bell Ringing at Schnucks, Walmart, or the Shell Station in Wright City

Agape is in need of lots of bell ringers for the season.  I would like St. John's folks to make a big impact with this and help as much as we are able.  85% of all donations stay right here in Warrenton at Agape!! 

 

If you're interested, go to www.agapemo.org and sign up. 

 

If you're interested in making it a St. John's group thing, please let me know and I will block off a larger time at a spot. 

 

Thanks everyone!

DEVOTION: Psalm 16 English Standard Version (ESV)

You Will Not Abandon My Soul

A Miktam[a] of David.

16 Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
I say to the Lord, "You are my Lord;
    I have no good apart from you."

As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,
    in whom is all my delight.[b]

The sorrows of those who run after[c] another god shall multiply;
    their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
    or take their names on my lips.

The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
    you hold my lot.
The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
    in the night also my heart instructs me.[d]
I have set the Lord always before me;
    because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being[e] rejoices;
    my flesh also dwells secure.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
    or let your holy one see corruption.[f]

11 You make known to me the path of life;
    in your presence there is fullness of joy;
    at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
