"Small things done with great love can change the world."



Approximately 28 class members gathered in the church parking lot on Monday night, May 2nd, with donations for the Pleasant Grove area. Both the Baileys and Bonners are long time residents of that area. Jerry and Glynda spearheaded this effort with connections through the First Baptist Church of Pleasant Grove. We filled Jerry's truck, Dianne's car and Butch's huge pick-up! A lady who saw us there stopped and gave us things including a case of large bottles of Gatorade. A car stopped and a little girl gave Glynda a plastic Easter egg with her money she wanted to donate.This devastation has touched so many. We thank those of you who came and those who sent donations. We held hands and Jerry voiced a prayer for those affected by the tornadoes and ones who do what they can to assist them. "Bear ye one another's burdens and so fulfil the law of Christ." Galatians 6:2. Our class verse in motion on that asphalt as we gathered to share, Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
