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

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