News and Events...
When one talks about church family, it sort of just rolls off your tongue and you really don't think much about it,but Nan and I have actually seen how it works. Starting with the time I fell December 16 (in our house), we have been showered with cards, rides to the hospital, food, lots of visits and phone calls, snow shovelers and last but certainly not least, the prayers you said for my recovery. As many of you already know, my surgeon gave me permission to drive (Nan was there and heard it herself) and today at my second follow up visit, he gave me permission to drive to South Texas so we will be leaving Sunday morning for "The Valley" for a shorteded trip. Thank you all for your concern, your caring, and most of all your prayers. How many people can boast the fact that they got a complete new hip for Christmas!?

Saturday afternoon at the movies
Come see the movie of an olympic athlete's dedication and faith in "Chariots of Fire" at the home of Ray & Cindy Urbanski on Saturday, March 6 at 2 p.m. The address is 62 NW 575 and to get there, drive about five miles north of Hwy. 50 on Hwy. 13. Turn left (west) on 575 Rd. Go down the hill and across the creek. It is the first house on the left. Everyone is welcome.
We have a new fax machine
Thank you to First Christian Church for offering this new fax machine. And, thanks to Henry Croes for setting it up in the church office.
We need volunteers
We need volunteers to help out at the church office Mon. thru Fri. to mainly answer the phone. These are the times as follows: Mornings (9:30 am - 12 pm) and afternoons (2:30 - 5 pm). If you are available for any of these times, please contact the church office at 747-5731. Thank you for your continued support.

Adult Sunday School Class
The Old Kitchen Class continues to meet each Sunday at 9:30 downstairs in the church library. We read and discuss lessons from The Present Word Bible study series. The atmosphere is casual.
