DEAR CLINTONIANS
We, the Christians of the Christian Reformed Church, that white,
wooden building with the black roof at the eastside of town, like you
very much to get acquainted with our wonderful teachings. We have our
belief from the Holy Bible, God's Word, which tells us that we have all
sinned and are of ourselves unable to do any good at all, and as a
consequence heading for eternal destruction. However, God in His
marvelous love gave us a way to get rid of all our sins through belief in
Jesus Christ, His Son, Who died on the cross to pay for our wrongs. To
show our thankfulness we live as much as possible according to God's
law of love.
We are waiting for Jesus second coming, now as King of the
Universe.
if you have basically the same faith as we haVe we would be very
happy to once in a while see you in our church to worship and pray
with us. WE NEED YOU.
If you do not believe the above, be do not,believe at all, we hope
you will give us an opportunity to exchange views and learn more of
God's love for you. WE NEEDYOU TOO.
