Interesting notes:
· The book of Psalms is divided into 5 "books." The fifth book covers Psalms 107-150. Psalm 150 seems to be the doxology for that "book."
· Psalm 136 was used as a call and response between the Levites and the people or choir.
· Psalms 146-150 are the Hallelujah Psalms.
· Proverbs 5:15 and following, speaking of drinking from your own cistern, speaks about faithfulness in marriage.

Women's Restroom
Our Building and Grounds committee is replacing the floor in the restroom in the church. The woman's restroom and water fountains aren't functional. Please use the ones in the Fellowship Hall.
Something to Think About:
Some go to church to take a walk,
Some go to church to laugh and talk;
Some go to church to meet a friend,
Some go to church their time to spend;
Some go to church to doze and nod,
The wise go to church to worship God.
