HAPPY NEW YEAR



HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The Wenatchee Valley Baptist Church Library is looking forward to another exciting year. Our wish is that everyone make the most of 2014, giving and caring that little bit more than we did last year. At this time of year we often make New Year's Resolutions in hopes that we can change or improve on things in our lives. Some wish to exercise more, others to lose weight. Many of us strive to be a little bit better than we have been in previous years.

We are asking that people share their resolutions with all of us. Who knows? It might just inspire us to try something new. Just what is it that you would like to do differently in 2014? Your name isn't necessary ... just your initials, or you may even remain anonymous. Stop by the library and post your resolution note to the wall. We welcome responses from people of all ages. Check back in from time to time and see what other people would like to change.

Here's just a few things that Book Worm and I would like to improve on:

Read more books.

Get organized.

Be a little nicer.

Cut back on snacks.

Pray more.

Be patient.

How do you want to change?

Why Have a Church Library?  

Paul wrote to Timothy, "When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, also the books, and above all, the parchments." 2 Timothy 4:13. Paul had need of books: how much more the growing Christian of today needs the stimulus of books for reference, for Bible study, for inspiration in Christian living!

Spurgeon wrote of Paul, "He was inspired, and yet he wants books! He has been preaching for thirty years, and yet he wants books! He has seen the Lord, and yet he wants books! He has a wider experience than most men do, and yet he wants books! He had been caught up into the very heaven, and had heard things that it was not lawful for a man to utter, and yet he wants books! He had written the major part of the New Testament, and yet he wants books!" (Barton:100 Great Texts and Their Treatment, p.111.)

Book Drive

As the old year winds down and I look forward to the new year, I always look for opportunities to improve our library.  During the month of January we will have a book drive! If you have any books just sitting on shelves, never to be read again, I would gladly accept them as donations.  Books for juniors and youth are especially needed, but we need children and adult books, also. Just drop them off in the donation basket in the library. You can help!!!

-----------------------

If you have been feeling that there must be more to Christian Life than you have experienced up to now, you'll be happy to know, there is.

Welcome pilgrim, you have come to the right place!
