LADIES' CLASS PLANNING MEETING

The ladies held their planning meeting Tuesday night for our ladies' bible class and we had a great turnout. There were 11 in attendance which is double what we normally have for our monthly classes. There are a lot of exciting things happening for the congregation and Pam's lesson before all the "planning" took place focused on being thankful for what the Lord has done and is doing for the Church here at Warren. We've had three baptisms this month, and several families expressing their desire to place membership here at Warren. Pam also spoke about the unity of purpose we have here at Warren in our desire to be obedient to God's word, how we have all come together in striving to do His will, and that in all that we do our goal is to glorify Him. It was a very good night, an encouraging night, with a call to celebrate and to attempt to let others not only hear about the joy we have in Christ, but to see it in our lives. There was of course, as always, lots of good food and some great fellowship. We stayed together longer than we intended, but I think all of the ladies left uplifted and ready and excited to get to work for the coming year.

MARCH KIDS' DEVOTIONAL AND GET-TOGETHER

This month's kids' get-together took place today at 5 PM at the home of Roger and Jackie Sherwood. After everyone arrived, the kids sat themselves down at the two picnic tables outside and since planting season is soon upon us, they started planting the seed. And as you probably already guessed, Randy taught the kids a lesson on the Parable of the Sower. Each child was given one clay pot, a small baggie of potting soil, a plastic spoon, and a pack of seeds. It was also explained to them that from one little seed, if fed and watered and nurtured, a beautiful much larger flower would grow, much like themselves. Afterwards there was enormous amounts of food to eat, which we did eagerly, and then young and old alike just "played." Those in attendance were, in no particular order, Randy M., Evan, Collin, John, Michael, Randy H., Vickie, Kara, Graham, Scott, Cathy, Aubrey, Selvie, Hannah, Jordie, Chris, Amanda, McKayla, Christopher, Sandy, Joann, Paul, Leyna, Logan, Roger and Jackie. 26 in all, what a great turnout!!
