1) The church will be ordaining Brother Martin Bowers as a deacon next Sunday. There will be a potluck following the morning worship and then the special ordination service. 2) As of yesterday’s offering, the parking lot project is completely funded. The offering yesterday was very large indeed. God continues to meet our needs. 3) The Long Friday is coming to an end for your pastor. I will be returning to my job at Younger Optics next Monday. I’m excited about the o...pportunity to earn my living and opportunities I will have to share my faith. 4) I plan to post the text of the man part of yesterday’s sermon. For those who missed it, you can still stream it. 5) Donald Simon’s sister passed away last week. Please pray for him. He retired to Florida several years ago, but this fear man faithfully sends his tithe by mail every month. 6) Marilyn is stronger, but having severe stomach pain. She is at this time at the emergency room being examined. Please continue with your prayers.

I am pleased to announce our parking lot project is fully funded. I want to thank all who gave so freely. Let’s give glory to God.
