Craig, his wife Betsy, and his mother, still need to be kept in our prayers. They have a deep faith, a young marriage, and a bright future. They are brave and are blessed by what they do not know and are content to take life a day at a time and be grateful for the progress each day hold for them. Thanks for your continued prayers.

If you can help out, contact Janice Turner at 943-6686 or 510-3750. Help is especially needed on Mondays, but they welcome help anytime. The boys study hour is from 4:00 - 5:00 PM.
The Springs! Wes Conley asks for back up help for the technical services on Sunday mornings. Wes said their need is for three volunteers to serve as back up to the Springs Technical team. They would request that the volunteers train with the team for two Sundays and then be on standby should they need help when one of the first team members should be out. There is nothing really technical to learn and any in our group could learn quickly. There is mostly moving, setting up, running cables, and some lifting--but not much. Contact Wes to volunteer at 671-7734.
