Youth Spaghetti Dinner February 11th
The youth will be sponsoring a “All you care to eat” Spaghetti dinner at the church on February 11th from 6-8 pm. The donation for the dinner is $7 for adults and $5 for children. You may purchase tickets from any of our teens or pay at the door the night of the event. Please let Darlene or Marquis know if you are coming so they can properly plan for the event. Lets help support our teens as they plan to go to festival of life in Boston!
M & M Breakfast Jan. 21
Due to weather conditions we will NOT be having the men’s breakfast this morning(1/21/12). This will be moved back into February. If you have any questions please feel free to call me. I will update the M & M page later today with a small part of the devotion for today. Thank you all for your time and may God bless.

I hope that the New Year celebrations are behind you and you have begun to look at the New Year as an opportunity to break some individual barriers as well as some as a church family. It is about three weeks into the New Year that we usually start to see resolutions begin to fail and we take on our bad habits and resist change. Success is never an accident: it is the result of intention, effort, and the skillful execution of what you know to do as you seek intelligent direction from the Lord.
Winston Churchill says Excellence is caring more than others think is wise; Risking more than others think is safe; Dreaming more than others think is practical. Expecting more than others think is possible. These elements with the Lord’s help will make 2012 a year to remember.
- Caring for others beyond casual.
- Risking and getting out of your comfort zone.
- Dreaming big because we serve a God that can do ANYTHING!
- Expecting God to honor His Word and use His people to accomplish great things!
I pray this is the start of your New Year,
Pastor Tony
Operation Overboard Wish List
This year’s Vacation Bible School, Operation Overboard is scheduled for July 16 – 20. That is approximately 190 days away! I can hardly believe that VBS is so close. I’m gearing up for another great year of ministering to the children of our community.
I wish my excitement alone could make this program happen, but that is not the case. I need everyone’s help. I need people in all facets of VBS. Even if you cannot make it to the program each night, I can use you! I’ve attached a wish list of items for Operation Overboard.
This list includes items that are needed for decorating, crafts, recreation, the returning Pre-School program and the Bible story. Snack donations will be requested closer to VBS. If you are able to purchase or give a donation towards any of the items, it would be greatly appreciated.
I’ll update the list monthly so that everyone can see our progress. With the congregation’s help, this year’s Operation Overboard will be a huge S P L A S H!!!
Wanted
