Letter From The Publisher

Greetings for the Upcoming Easter Season

The parents among us are now entrenched in a new school semester, and our nation is facing an election cycle. We’ve left 2011 behind and are finally used to writing 2012 on our checks and correspondence. Yet this hustle and bustle pales in comparison to the greatest story of all: Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. His wonderful gift of salvation will soon be commemorated once again.

Yes, April 8 marks this year’s Easter celebration, a joyous time in the lives of Christians the world over. As believers observe the Holy Days, many will count down the liturgical calendar heading into the Lenten season. Others will attend special Easter services and wonder anew at God’s grace and faithfulness. All will worship with gratitude and reverence, knowing that Jesus paid the price and made possible the amazing relationship we share with Him.

It is my hope that those who do not have a church home find one during this sacred season. I, along with all Christians, pray for those who are seeking. In this day and age, the comfort and support of a church family can make a huge difference in everything from raising children to living life abundantly. I encourage every one regardless of their denomination to add church attendance to their regular weekly schedules. Honoring the Lord through our attendance in preparation of eternal life is encouraged in one of my favorite scriptures:

Hebrew 10:23-25 (KJV): “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.”

In Joe’s words, our innate talents are given by the Lord, and are meant to be used to serve the Lord. Aside from being a President and Publisher, Joe Menslage is also the co-founder of Katy Christian Chamber of Commerce, where Christians can network, build business connections, listen to passionate speakers, and enjoy monthly breakfasts and lunches.
