CONGRATULATIONS!To all of you at FACC I just want to congratulate you on your faithfulgiving to our Special Easter Offering. The missions committee isputting forward $2000 for one pallet of food and we challenged you tomatch that amount for a second pallet. Well God blessed this effort
through you and showed his power with the Easter offering totalingover $3300! This means that God is not only allowing us to send 2pallets of food, but to also bless Lifeline Christian Mission with agenerous donation that they can use for their needs. This worthymission serves the kingdom in many amazing ways, and we get to playa part in that. PRAISE THE LORD!
A Special Thank YouI also wanted to give a special thank you to Dale Thornton. He showedgreat generosity with his time and general patience as he helped direct
myself and some of the youth in painting the old KidsZone room. Thisis the room on the opposite wall from the kitchen elevated from thefellowship hall where we do many programs with the children. Thenew paint job looks amazing and it would not have been accomplishedas quickly or as excellently without Mr. Thornton's help. Thank you.
Children of God..."Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old
he will not turn from it." -- Proverbs 22:6

month for families
