Ephesians 6:12-13 - “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.”
Mission Trip to Colonias is Approaching; Money, Food & Donations Lagging
Support for our mission trip to the Colonias is not as robust as we might hope. In particular, we are lagging in our cash donations for the purchase of the food items. Given our experience with the two day trip in December we will be needing at least $3,000.00 for the July trip. Even with the expected help from East Side Baptist Church we are still far behind where we should be. Pray on this and let the Spirit lead you to make an extra effort to help the less fortunate.
Are you ready to put Matthew 28:19 & 20 into action? If you are, after you have made your financial contribution to the trip, see Pastor Paul or Pastor Terry about volunteering to accompany them on this missionary journey. You will not be disappointed!
Sister Anne is busy organizing the donations into packages for transportation Sister Amy is well on the road to systemizing the process and could use some help. See either of these fine Christian ladies about where you might be able to help.
Our own Vacation Bible School is still in need of help. Use our own VBS as a training ground to prepare us for the Colonias trip. The young folks near the border just don't have much opportunity to take a regular vacation between school years. Often, the VBS brought to them by visiting churches is the only vacation they get. Won't you help?
Just a reminder. It is Income Tax Refund time. When you are planning on what to do with those few extra dollars, don't forget the Mission Trip to the Colonias. They can always use the extra help!

Musicians, Where Are You?
We could really use a few more musicians to add to our efforts in Praising God in music. A lead guitarist (or two), bass player, drummer, etc. etc. We are open to talent. Even if you are only good at playing the Kazoo, we would like to give you a try. If you are aware of anyone who is interested in using their musical instrurments in lifting praises to Jesus, let us know or have them contact Pastor Paul. And, even if you don't know of anyone, please keep the matter in prayer.
