The Week at a Glance
Words or deeds? Too many of us have a Christian vocabulary rather than a Christian experience. We think we are doing our duty when were only talking about it. Charles F. Banning A Special Note To: Sunday School Classes & Individuals WMU Council is sponsoring a Basket Silent Auction (April 27) to support LU Students, Shannon Ritter & Steven Russells trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming through Campus Crusade for Christ. Please be thinking about donating a basket for the auction. Some possible themes are: baby, sports, movie night, game night, cooking, gardening, chocolate, etc. If class members each bring something then it wont be too expensive to make. Please read about this outdoor ministry/leadership training online or to give a donation: http://www.gofundme.com/ steveloafund http://www.lifeofadventure.com
They still need to raise $800 - $1,000.
