I can’t wait for Easter weekend as we prepare to worship through 4 services. Please pray and invite others to our Good Friday service and to our Easter services. Jesus is alive. We serve a risen Savior. If His body were still in Jerusalem, there is no hope of salvation for anyone in the world. But His body is not there. He is alive. His resurrection changes everything and it is history’s most important fact. Some of you may be wondering, “why so many services”? The answer is that we have an opportunity to share with as many people as possible through several services the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. I am all in and ready to preach as many messages as possible, so people hear about the matchless name of Jesus. Are you eager to see God move in our church? Who are you bringing with you this Easter weekend?

Jim and I would like to warmly thank Randy Moss and James Mangrum for their quick response to clear our drive and the beginning of clean-up following the tornado Monday morning. The value of seeing caring faces with smiles in the middle of a yard of downed trees and a barn roof partially gone was amazing. The path of the storm spared our home for which we are grateful. We are safe and all the animals are unharmed. Thank you to the Men's Ministry team and Pastor DeWayne and to all the other caring Christian friends. So many have called and offered assistance and for that we are grateful.
Thank you,
Jim and Valerie Barr
