NEXT SUNDAY - ALABASTER OFFERING:
Twice a year we join with all the other Nazarene churches around
the world to receive an Alabaster offering. This money is used to
build schools, clinics, churches, hospitals and parsonages on the
mission field. There are special alabaster boxes on the communion
table that you are encouraged to take today for your offering.
THIS WEEK:
Wednesday, 7:00 p.m. - Midweek Service! Plan to attend.
ATTENTION ALL SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS AND
HELPERS:
There will be a planning meeting on Monday, February 23rd, at
7:00 p.m. at the church. Come with your ideas, needs, and bless-
ings. You are a vital part of the ministry of this church, and we
need to continue to share the gospel with our congregation.
NOTE TO ALL TEENS:
Starting on Sunday, March 1st, we will have a Teen Fellowship.
You will meet every Sunday at 6:00 p.m. and each Wednesday at
7:00 p.m. This will be a time of fun, fellowship, refreshments
(pizza) and learning about the love of Jesus. These get- togethers
will be led by Karen Newcomb. BRING A FRIEND!
We are still seeking a children's worker or workers to lead a pro-
gram for our children on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. and
on Sunday at 6:00 p.m. The Lord has blessed this church with a
great group of children whom we need to love, teach, train, and
encourage. Please pray for this special need.
PRAYER CHORUS - "HE IS HERE"
He is here, hallelujah! He is here, amen! He is here, holy, holy,
I will bless His name again.
He is here; listen closely, Hear Him calling out your name. He is
here; you can touch Him, You will never be the same.

NOTE OF THANKS:
Dear Church Family, It's easy to say "thank you" but harder to
let you know just how much your thoughtfulness was appreciated.
Hope you realize that this gratitude comes from the heart.
Thanks again for your prayers and visits. God answered prayer &
healed that cyst that was on my brain. "Praise the Lord" May
God bless each one.
Love in Christ, Sonny (and Myrtle) Cottle
