Therefore, every activity planned and carried out by this group will further the outreach to other adults and help all mature in their relationship to Christ."

THE SONSHINE GANG POTLUCK/MOVIE On Saturday, January 28, 12:00 noon, The Sonshine Gang is having a potluck meal and wonderful movie, "Courageous," in our Fellowship Hall. This movie was in theaters last fall and all who saw it gave it a high recommendation so now is our chance to see it as a group. Bring your favorite dish and join us. Please sign at the Welcome Center so we know how many to count on. AND BRING A FRIEND! Dean and Pat
