Note From Pastor Jim

Hi Everyone,

It was a great Missions Weekend with Dr. H.C. Wilson this past weekend and it was exciting when he ended our Sunday morning gathering by encouraging us to bring our loose change to the front to change a life in Haiti. As hundreds of our church family came forward with the change in their pockets and purses, we collected $1355.75! Dr. Wilson told us that the average daily wage in Haiti is one dollar, so we changed over 1300 families lives with only the change in our pockets! Praise the Lord! A huge Thank You!!!

You may or may not know that our official church year comes to a close this Sunday. We begin our new church year in the month of May. Although we are doing better than last year in our giving, we are ending the church year with approximately a $22,000 deficit. I want to encourage each of us to come ready to close up our church year with a balanced budget. Could you please pray about what God would have you give on this last Sunday of our church year? Diane and I are going to give extra to do our part to end the church year responsibly. I thank you in advance for doing the same!

Blessing to each of you,
Pastor Jim & Diane
