Luke 19:1-10
191He entered Jericho and was passing through it.2A man was there named Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was rich.3He was trying to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was short in stature.4So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree to see him, because he was going to pass that way.5When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, "Zacchaeus, hurry and come down; for I must stay at your house today."6So he hurried down and was happy to welcome him.7All who saw it began to grumble and said, "He has gone to be the guest of one who is a sinner."8Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord, "Look, half of my possessions, Lord, I will give to the poor; and if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I will pay back four times as much."9Then Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because he too is a son of Abra-ham.10For the Son of Man came to seek out and to save the lost."
Neighbors Helping Neighbors Forty five years ago Beaumont Grade School allowed Bethel to hold church in their school while our church was being built next door. Bethel now wants to return the favor. We will be collecting "Box Tops for Education" and "Labels for Education" to help the children get a better education. Bring or send them to Church and drop them in the two boxes waiting there.
