This date is forever embedded in our minds. On January 15, 2010, my father-in-law was killed in a car wreck. Today marks the one year anniversary. Skip loved his family and especially his wife but most of all he loved his Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. His devotion to Christ was obvious in his lifestyle and character. His selflessness and integrity are what stood out to me the most. Please pray today especially for Becky, Brad's mom, and for the rest of us as we gather together to remember our dear Dad and Bop.

Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD;
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol him with music and song.
3 For the LORD is the great God,
the great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth,
and the mountain peaks belong to him.
5 The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.
6 Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;
7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.
Psalm 95:1-6
