Your Children Have Everything They Could Ask For. Does That Include Life Insurance?

SAVE UP TO

Over 3,5 0 Medica 0 tions Availab le

One of the most important things you can give your children is a life insurance policy for yourself. At Edward Jones, we meet with you face to face, so we can get to know you and your entire financial picture. That way, we can help find the life insurance policy that best suits your family’s unique needs.

*PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED

Because all the toys in the world aren’t worth as much to your children as ensuring you’ll always be there for them.

To learn about the wide range of life insurance products we offer, contact your local Edward Jones financial advisor. This literature is intended to promote and assist in the sale of life insurance or annuities. Talk with me about the various insurance and annuity products offered through Edward Jones.

Words of

Faith &Hope

A WORK IN PROGRESS “He who has begun a good work in you will bring it to completion on that day” – Philippians l: 6 We are all “a work in progress”... ...Our work is incomplete. ...Our learning is incomplete. ...Our character is incomplete. ...Our love is incomplete. ...Our faith is incomplete. When I was about a freshman in High School I volunteered to deliver what would have been my first sermon on Youth Sunday. One of our youth advisors said “You can’t preach!” People tend to judge and mock people because they have not as yet seen the finished product. Examples: ...Noah and his ark ...A shepherd boy named David ...Jesus of Nazareth ...The Wright brothers and their plane ...Walt Disney and his drawings ...Baseball great, Jackie Robinson ...Basketball great, Michael Jordan

Shortly before his execution by the Romans, Apostle Paul wrote a letter (from prison in Rome) to his friends at Philippi. His message was simple: • Find joy regardless of your circumstances • Keep pressing on • Remember God will complete his perfect work in you. God’s work for us began when Jesus died on the cross for our sins. God’s work in us began the moment we believed. One day His work in us will be made complete. So, the next time someone is critical of you or doesn’t believe in you, just turn to them and say, “God isn’t finished with me yet!”

Prayer: “Finish, then, thy new creation; pure and spotless let us be. Let us see thy great salvation perfectly restored in thee…” –Charles Wesley

Peace to you and please join us for worship this Sunday in a church where Jesus’ love is lived. Rev. Dan Minor, Pastoral friend & colleague of Rev. Joe Shaler Sponsored In Part by:
