STEWARDSHIP - May Unified Budget Receipts $ 24,001.71 Disbursements $ 24,567.61 BECAUSE YOU GIVE Fourteen youth spent a week together in Nags Head. They learned how to serve one another on KP teams. They practiced a Christ-like community when they ruffled each others feathers, then worked through their problems and forgave each other. They were exposed to Christian role models who chaperoned them, led them in morning and evening devotions, and developed friendships with them. They experienced Christian gen- erosity from you and from Bob and Anita Ed- wards. These are Kingdom of God happen- ings. THANK YOU FOR GIVING. Orange Baptist Book Club Club meetings are cancelled for June, July and August. We will resume discus- sions in September 2010.
