CHURCH LEADERSHIP: Marv (Karen) Lutterman, Elder Board; John (Tiffani—Taylor & Hannah) Clark, Deacon Board

 

MISSIONS FOCUS: Paul & Liz Bowman, TEAM, Spain (children: Stephanie & Tyler)

  • “It was once said that Spaniards are not won to Christ through words or events but through watching one’s life…Liz and I have tried to do lots of showing, which is living and rubbing shoulders with those around us. Our prayer is that Christ will be so evident in our daily lives that many will be drawn to Him.” Please pray for Frederico, Rosa, Juan & Belen—all of whom are asking questions!

  • Gaudi and Diana came to the Lord while doing premarital counseling with Paul. They have continued in a discipling study for about a year. Pray for them as they strive to apply Biblical principles to their daily lives.

  • “Over the last 6 months, many have prayed for our financial needs. God has answered in amazing ways!...we have experienced God’s incredible provision. He used these gifts to not only care for financial needs but to strengthen our faith as well.”

 

 

VBS: A volunteer is needed to coordinate the CRAFTS for Bible School (7/21-25). If you can help with this, please contact Marlene Weston or the church office.
