"SPREAD THE WORD" will be the theme for our annual attendance campaign which will begin Feb. 26-April 1. Pray for opportunities to witness to someone each day. This can be expressed in conversation of how your prayers have been answered, meaningful scripture that has changed your life or lifestyle or a new book that has brought you closer to Christ. Don't be afraid to share "your story" on what a difference Christ has made in your life. As you share, the work of the Holy Spirit takes over. Freely invite everyone you meet to come to church and share a ride, if that helps. Just "Spread the Word" and allow the Spirit to do His work. See you Sunday!
