Eden Chapel
by Bob Hilley
Rev. Max R tsdd's ~,ermon. "'Who tlae Hell Is the Devil?," focused on
our personal conJrontatiofis with Satan. Through Jesus' example in
l,uke 4: I- 13, we can see that the way to combat Satan's attempts at
leading us astray is Io quote Scripture. Even if we don't know the
verses word-for-word, understanding the meaning of scriptural pas-
sages will help us to resist temptation. It is important for us to re-
member that, while Satan is at work in the world, so is God.
Priscilla Pig came by during snack time. She brought a Talons Time
Card for Bob. Talons Time Day is a holiday that Priscilla invented so
that people could tell each other how much they hate each other--just
like we have Valentine's Day to tell each other that we care. The kids
hRIped Priscilla see that we don't need a special day for hate--al-
though she, of course, thought that that means that she needs to send
Bob a Talons Time Day cttrd every day.
l uring the Sunday evening services, Max talked about prayer. Read-
ing from Matthew 6: 1-6, the text about not calling attention to your-
self when praying, Max asked if we prayed before meals in restau-
rants. He pointed out that we have a chance to witness to others when
we pray in public.
Charles Kaupke shared his musical talent during the evening ser-
vices by singing with a couple of songs. Next Sunday night, the guest
speaker will be Chris Reding, a seminary student from Stillwater.
The Eden Chapel/Lost Creek Lenten Devotional, an annual collec-
tion of stories thai tell how God is at work in our lives, is now avail-
able. Come by one of the churches or contact someone who attends to
pick up a copy.

alicl then Sunday sch~ol at I 1:00~ Please come join us. You're sure to
fi/ d caring people who want to share their love of God with you.

'Sunday Leonne brought us the message "What Heaven is like in
w~rship" from Revelation 4 and 5. Heaven is a place of worship, and
will be populated by people who want to worship God. The good
times of worship that we have in our churches give us a foretaste of
the worship in heaven, giving God the glory and praise.
Haelee Marr sang a special, "'Jesus Loves Me".
A blood drive lbr Kyle Knott, six year old grandson of Dane and
Susan Blubaugh will be at the Perkins-Tryon Elementary Gym, March
12, 2-7 p.m. It is sponsored by the Perkins United Methodist Church.
The Oklahoma Christian Convention was held in Stillwater last
weekend. It was very good. Some of our local church members par-
tic]pated in the conve~tion choir. We got to hear some contemporary
Christian music as well as some traditional music. The featured speak-
ers, Mark Scott and Them Rainer, brought outstanding messages.
Thanks to Hollis Ward who shared two photos of the 1954 basket-
ball team. The photos were in last weeks Perkins Journal. These young
men were my classmates. I remember how hard they and Coach Ward
worked at practice. In 1 Corinthians 9:25 Paul writes, "Everyone who
competes in the game goes into strict training. They do it and hope to

Sunday mornings message from Matthew 25:14-30 was entitled "It's
All Always His." Pastor, Albert May, brought us the message.
In this passage of Scripture, we often refer to as the "Parable of the
Talents"; Jesus is speaking of stewardship. As you are probably fa-
miliar with this Scripture, a man going on a journey called his ser-
vants in and entrusted his property to each one of them. To One he
gave five talents of money, to another he gave two, and to another he
gave one. Each was expected to get a good return on the property.
Increasing what the Master had originally had given them.
Two of the servants increased what the Master had entrusted them,
and were praised for their good investment. The third servant how-
ever, hid his tale and did nothing with what He had been given. The
Master called the latter servant "lazy and worthless" You see the prop-
erty was never the servants property to hide or to hoard.
The ownership of the property was always the Master's, and he had
given the property to his servants to manage, while he was away.
God has given each of us the responsibility of managing his prop-
erty. Whether it is money, material things, time, or talents. All of
these things are his and are to be used for his honor and his glory.
Are you being a good steward of the things that God has given you to
manage?
As your recall our Mission trip to Estonia in June of 2001 is coming
very soon and we continue to ask for your prayers. Pray for our safety
as we go and for the hearts of the people in Estonia to be receptive to
the Gospel. You may also contribute financially if you would like to
be a part of the work that God is doing there.

Estonia, 500 East Knipe, Perkins, OK 74059.
Checks should be made payable to First Baptist Church. Your con-
tributions both in Prayer and Finances, will further the work of our
