Greetings!
"WHAT REALLY MATTERS"
May Emphasis
Prayer Matters
TODAY . . .
Pastor Ron begins a series of messages on "The Power of Prayer."
HOW BIG IS YOUR GOD?
Is He big enough to heal your marriage or heal your child?
Is He bigger than a positive MRI or a negative evaluation?
Is He bigger than your secret sin or secret dream?
This month learn how to pray in a new way by drawing prayer circles around your dreams, your family, your problems, and most importantly God's promises. In the process you will discover this life changing truth.
GOD HONORS BOLD PRAYERS AND
BOLD PRAYERS HONOR GOD
Our Pastor recommends the following resources that you can purchase at local bookstores (LifeWay Christian Book Store and Family Christian Book Store) or online at
www.christianbook.com.
"The Circle Maker" and "Draw the Circle: The 40 Day Prayer Challenge" by Mark Batterson

leave a legacy........
Information:
Leave a Legacy - Sponsor a Student for Camp
This July, our students are going to be a part of LifeWay's Mission-Fuge Summer Camp in Mobile, AL. Last year, this camp energized our students toward having a heart for the Lord and a passion to see the gospel of Jesus spread around the world. Like last year, this year's camp will undoubtedly leave a legacy upon our students that will last for the rest of their lives! Though the impact of M-Fuge on our students is great, so is the cost to attend. The cost is $322 per student. Start praying now about whether the Lord would have you sponsor one of our students who cannot afford to go to this life-changing camp. Information on how to sponsor a student or donate money to help send our students to M-Fuge was inserted in the bulletin last Sunday. Extra copies of this insert are available on the info table in the foyer. For more immediate information, contact Brad Borowski, our Interim Student Minister.
