"The Sabbath-school affords to parents and children a precious opportunity for the study of God’s Word.
But in order to gain that benefit which they should gain in the Sabbath-school, both parents and children should devote time to the study of the lessons, seeking to obtain a thorough knowledge of the facts presented, and also of the spiritual truths which these facts are designed to teach."...…..Testimonies on Sabbath School Work...Page 10

“Sweet, Sweet Spirit”
1
There’s a sweet, sweet spirit in this place,
And I know that it’s the spirit of the Lord;
Refrain:
Sweet Holy Spirit,
Sweet Heavenly Dove,
Stay right here with us,
Filling us with Your love,
And for these blessings
We lift our hearts in praise,
Without a doubt we’ll know
That we have been revived
When we shall leave this place.
2
There are sweet expressions on each face,
And I know they feel the presence of the Lord.
Refrain
There’s a sweet, sweet spirit in this place,
And I know that it’s the spirit of the Lord;
Refrain:
Sweet Holy Spirit,
Sweet Heavenly Dove,
Stay right here with us,
Filling us with Your love,
And for these blessings
We lift our hearts in praise,
Without a doubt we’ll know
That we have been revived
When we shall leave this place.

There are sweet expressions on each face,
And I know they feel the presence of the Lord.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner, it must not suffer loss:
From vict’ry unto vict’ry, His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished, and Christ is Lord indeed.
2
Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey:
Forth to the mighty conflict, in this His glorious day;
Ye that are men now serve Him against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger, and strength to strength oppose.
3
Stand up, stand up for Jesus! Stand in His strength alone,
The arm of flesh will fail you, ye dare not trust your own;
Put on the gospel armor, and watching unto prayer,
Where calls the voice of duty, be never wanting there.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! the strife will not be long;
This day the noise of battle, the next the victor’s song;
To him that overcometh a crown of life shall be;
He with the King of glory shall reign eternally.

Remember the Sick and Shut-In
Take a moment to remember in prayer and to show love through acts of kindness, to those members who are unable to come to worship services.

News From South Atlantic Conference
44 Children’s Books on Mental Health: “Mental health has impacted our children and it’s not getting any
better with the most common disorder of children – anxiety and increased suicidal rates. If you’ve ever
heard a child talk about suicide ideation, it will break your heart. Let’s do what we can do love on, support and encourage our children. Looking through the list of books I got excited – Don’t Feed the Worrybug,What to Do When You Worry Too Much: A Kid’s Guide to Overcoming Anxiety, In My Heart: A Book of Feelings, and more! These books will help kids understand emotional and learning challenges. I think these are excellent to read to our students, children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and church members. Let’s keep our children in prayer!”
