Personal Relationship with God ...

Enjoy real and lasting freedom through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Scripture: Galatians 4:1-7 and 1 John 1:5-9, 3:1-3

We had a great day with 37 in attendance in Sunday School!! (We had about 10 out who normally come so we could have easily overfilled the room! Wouldn't that be a great day?!!)

Prayer Requests:
Family of Eddie R in the death of his 96 year old uncle, Clarence, but this is a praise in that they know where he is because he was saved the week before he passed away! Many prayers had been said for him and people had been witnessing to him. Thankful for his salvation and home in Heaven!

If you have placed your faith in Christ you are free, forgiven and loved!

Mark the date of Saturday August 13th on your calendar. That's the date of our Annual Bar-B-Que. Don, Donny and Pete will cook all day with help from some of the other men and the others of us will bring a dish and gather about 6PM or 6:30 for good food and fellowship. If you can let us know before then that you will be coming and donate $5 each or $10 a couple toward the meat, the guys will know how many to buy and cook for.
