<strong>Church</strong> Life Updates<br />
“A Quarter Is All It Takes!”<br />
I would like to invite you personally to sing with us in the choir! I know some of<br />
you may not feel like you can devote time for rehearsing and singing every<br />
week for a whole year, but how about a quarter of the year? Why not try<br />
things out for just three months (whenever you are able), and at the end of the<br />
quarter you can stay with us longer or return to the congregation. Either way,<br />
we will be thankful that you’ve shared your time and talents to enrich the<br />
worship of our church family!<br />
Teresa Martin, Minister of Music<br />

“Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into<br />
His Harvest.” Matthew 9:38<br />
Somalia is a disaster of a country situated on the Horn of Africa,<br />
on the northeastern tip of the African continent.<br />
Constant fighting, a breakdown of government and deep poverty<br />
have led to chaos in the country for many years. That partly explains<br />
why most of Somalia’s 3.7 million people have never heard the<br />
gospel of Jesus Christ. More recently the country has suffered<br />
famine and late in 2012 it was estimated 400,000 children could face<br />
starvation.<br />
Southern <strong>Baptist</strong> workers like Drew Carson*, not his real name,<br />
who lives outside the country, have organized relief efforts to help.<br />
Let us pray that many in Somalia will come to know the peace of<br />
Jesus Christ, which is the only hope for this troubled land.<br />
We pray for our missionaries who are risking their lives every day<br />
to make that happen.<br />
