“The Enemy Is In My Neighbor-hood, And He’s Vicious”

Satan is much like those squir-rels we see all around town. They look so sweet, until they get into your house. Satan may make sin look all cute and cud-dly , but don’t be fooled. He is a roaring lion seeking ways for which he can devour. Come tonight for Part II of the series.

Adam & Lindsay Elliott

(Capri) Adam has been our

Residence Minister for the past 2 years.

As was announced this past Sunday, the Elders have decided to make Adam our new Outreach Center Min-ister for the next 2 years. At that point the Residence Minister Program will continue, and Lord willing, the Outreach Center Minister position will be on it’s way to becoming self sufficient.

We believe that God is opening many doors right now in the community surrounding the Outreach Center, and if we have someone working full time with the adults, to join Denise who is working with the kids and their families, God will use us to share Jesus in some in-credible ways.

Please be praying for this local mission effort.

“Someone, Just Anyone”

She sat alone in a nursing home Lonely, and old and gray;

She wished someone, just anyone Would call on her that day.

Did you?

He lay for days on his hospital bed The hours were long and hard;

He wished someone, just anyone Would send him a cheery card.

Did you?

He was far from home on foreign soil

Feeling homesick, lonely, blue; He wished someone, just anyone

Would write him a letter. Did you?

Her loved one had died weeks ago All sad and broken hearted she sat She wished someone, just anyone

Would come to her house and chat.

Did you?

That matter of Christian service— We are living it day by day;

When we help someone, just any-one

As we walk along life’s way. Did you?

Wednesday Evening, April 6th our format will change!

Bible Classes will begin at 7pm with an all family devotional following in the auditorium.

What this means for your children:

1. Their classes will begin at 7pm. 2. You will need to leave your class

quickly, pick them up & take them to the auditorium, so that our teachers will have time to get

to the devotional. Please join us as we aim for a

smooth transition!
