Isn't it great to Remember Who Is Really In Control, and that;

"the Word of the Lord endures forever." (Peter 1:25)

I hope you found this encouraging! I sure did.  sometimes we need teh reminder of just "WHO" is really in control.

Till the nets are full, keep on fishing.

STATISTICS DON'T LIE!!
HOW TO STAY SAFE IN THE WORLD TODAY
WHERE IS THE SAFEST PLACE?

1.  AVOID RIDING IN AUTOMOBILES - BECAUSE THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR 20% OF ALL FATAL ACCIDENTS.

2.  DO NOT STAY HOME - BECAUSE 17% OF ALL ACCIDENTS OCCUR IN THE HOME.

3.  AVOID WALKING ON STREETS OR SIDEWALKS - BECAUSE 14% OF ALL ACCIDENTS OCCUR TO PEDESTRIANS.

4.  AVOID TRAVELING BY AIR, RAIL, OR WATER - BECAUSE 16% OF ALL ACCIDENTS INVOLVE THESE FORMS OF TARANSPORTATION.

5.  OF THE REAMAINIG 33%, 32% OF ALL DEATHS OCCUR IN HOSPITALS.

SO, ABOVE ALL ELSE, AVOID HOSPITALS.

BUT.....

YOU WILL BE PLEASED TO LEARN THAT ONLY .OO1% OF ALL DEATHS OCCUR IN WORSHIP SERVICES IN CHURCH, AND THESE ARE USUALLY RELATED TO PERVIOUS PHYSICAL DISORDERS.  THEREFORE, LOGIC TELL LLUS THAT THE SAFEST PLACE FOR  YOU TO BE AT ANY GIVEN POINT IN TIME IS AT CHURCH!!

AND .... BIBLE STUDY IS SAFE TOO!!  THE PERCENTAGE OF BIBLE STUDY IS EVEN LESS.

SO ATTEND CHURCH AND READ YOUR BIBLE

IT WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE!!

GOD BLESSSES YOU!!!

THANKS TO AN EMAIL SENT BY CASSANDRA ROSS

Greetings all,

 

Good news.  Our Viridian website is up and running.  You can now go online and choose Viridian as you electric provider and start saving $$ on your monthly PSE&G bill.  The best news is for every person that chooses Viridian through our website, www.Viridian.com/CFPChurch as their energy supplier; The Carlstadt First Presbyterian Church will receive $2.00 per month each and every month a Viridian bill is paid.  Also don't forget for those of you that have homes either at the shore on ACE electric or in the Poconos on PPL you can also choose Viridian as your electric supplier.

 

The average residential PSE&G customer is saving approx 18% on their summer bills. 

ACE customers save approx 20%.

PPL customers save approx 14%. 

JCP&L will be available very soon.

 

Choose Viridian as your electric supplier and keep your local utility for all service issues.  The only change you will notice is a lower monthly electric bill.  Your new rates are billed on your regular utility bill each month just as they are now.  Compare Viridian's Summer Rates for PSE&G:

Our Rate = 10.50 (cents/kWh)

Utility Rate = 12.60 (cents/kWh)

Your local utility will still guarantee reliable electricity service to your home or small business.  Viridian provides greener electricity (20% or 100% renewable, wind and solar) at a lower cost than you are currently paying.  To learn more about Viridian, simply click on Our Company above.  

Choosing Viridian will save you money, help the environment and there is no risk, no contract and no catch.   Going green has never been so beneficial or simple. 

Signing up is easy as 1, 2, 3:

1.  Get your utility bill in hand
2.  Click on this link http://www.viridian.com/cfpchurch/Custom/Genealogy/EnrollCust.aspx

3.  Enter all information exactly as it appears on your current ELECTRIC (not gas) BILL and you will be entered into the system.

 

I have also dropped off paper customer application at the church office if you wish to use them.

 

Please contact me on my cell 201-697-1430 if anyone as any questions of needs my help choosing Viridian.

 

Please let me know if you would like me to come to your next meeting if anyone has any questions they can bring their electric bill with them.
