Welcome

For many, Lent is a time of sacrifice, a time to give something up. Many people will "attempt" to give up something that they feel is important to them, but I would like to turn that thought around 180 degrees. Don't give up something for Lent this year, but instead take something on. Take on reading and studying your Bible more. Take on visiting that neighbor you haven't talked to in years. Take on helping a senior citizen with some home repairs. Take on getting back in contact with an old friend. You get the idea! While we celebrate Christ's sacrifie of his life for us on the Cross, before that He took on many things; healing the sick, feeding the poor and finding the lost. This Lenten Season, don't look where you can take a step back, but instead, look where you can take a step forward.

Beds for Orphans
Pastor Jonathan's former pastor in South Korea, Rev Kwon, is presently in the Philippines on a long term mission trip. Rev. Kwon has asked Pastor Jonathan if our church could help an orphanage she is serving by purchasing 5 bunk bed and 8 mattress for the children. Bunk beds are $150 and mattresses are $80 each. Total cost for all of the items is a little over $1300. We will be setting up a pledge board in the church lobby which will give people the opportunity to pledge as little as $5 up to $150 towards the beds and mattresses. If you would like more information, please contact Pastor Jonathan.
