The "June Mission of the Month" is drawing to a close. Sunday will be your last chance for you to help save the life of a child from around the world. The ladies have put out envelopes so that you can give $22 for a Child's Heart. The wonderful people at Samaritan's Purse send children from poor families around the world to the United States for heart surgery. It costs about $2200 for one child to fly to America, have the surgery and fly home. We are asking you to take an envelope from the table in the foyer, put your dollars in, marking off a heart for each dollar, then bring the envelope back to the church and give it to Beth, Marti, Julie, or Olivia or drop it in the offering plate and we will see that the women's ministry gets the money. Please be sure that it is marked "Child's Heart" so that the money goes where it is supposed to go. Thank you for your generosity.

Brother Danny is still doing the "Chronological Bible Storying " series on Sunday evening. Missionaries often use this form to help natives understand the principles of the stories in the Bible. Think of all the people around the world who either have no written language or are illiterate. Only through Story Telling can they hear the Word of God. Without the gift of storytelling, they would have no opportunity to be saved by God's Holy Word. Come hear some of the stories. It gives you a new prospective of some of the Bible stories you have heard throughout your life.

Do you have an interest in children? Would you like to get involved with our GAs? How about our young preteen boys? Both the boys and girls are guided by an adult mentor in the straight and narrow path that God has planned for them. I'm proud of all of them as well as their leaders who so generously donate their time and efforts to leading these groups. If you would like to get involved with the GAs, we are looking for a new leader for the younger children. These kindergarten to third graders are precious and a real joy to work with. They are truly a blessing

On Wednesday evenings Brother Danny is preaching on "Facing Your Giants." It is an interesting series. Do you have "Giants" in your life that keep you from doing and being all that God would have you be? Come join us at 6:30 p.m. every Wednesday evening and learn how to "Slay your giants."

Do you have a church home? If not, we welcome you to join us any Sunday morning at 9:45 for Sunday School and at 11:00 for our morning worship. If you have younger children, we also have a Children's Church (Castle) for those up through 3rd grade. Please come join us anytime. Our Sunday evening services are held at 6:00 p.m. and our Wednesday evening services begin at 6:30. We would love to have you join us.
