FROM PASTOR Charlie

Damage the Debt
On Sunday, April 14th – Offering Goal is $50,000.
Praise the Lord, over the last 3 years the church debt has been reduced by over $1 million. We currently are down to approximately $700,000. Lord willing, we will be ‘debt free’ in the next couple of years. In order to service the debt, we need $200,000 per year. $50,000 comes from
the budget, $100,000 comes from the four 5th Sunday regular offerings, and $50,000 comes from the ‘damage the debt’ special offering. You are being asked to prayerfully give.

Who’s Your 1?
While we have concluded our ‘Who’s Your 1?’ emphasis, you are being encouraged to continue praying and reaching out to others. There have been many exciting reports of God working through our church family to reach the lost.

Portugal News
All adult Sunday School teachers are encouraged to INVITE some of the Portugal team members to come and share a few stories about our partnership. Participants are Jack Hickey, Hinson Swain, Joseph Treadaway, Jenny Hall, Felipe Hodge, Tim and Becky Thompson.

Sunday School
Everyone is encouraged to get connected with other brothers and sisters in Christ through the Sunday School. The Christian life was never intended to be lived in isolation. Instead, God saved us and designed us to develop deep and meaningful relationships with one another. There is a Sunday School class for you!

Pray
Let’s be disciplined and committed to the ministry of intercession; let’s pray for each other.
