Keep these in mind....

Coming up on April 25th, we are having a photo shoot and asking you to sell Antique Picture packs to benefit the church. This is only for kids. They supply old-timey clothing for the children. See Beth Smith for info. Her number is 522-7623 (cell) or 487-8740 (work). Also, it would be nice for us to have a few folks here at the church that day to meet and greet. This would benefit WCFC.

Please, everyone, mark your calendars for April 26. Jim Elliott and his brother and the families will be here at the church for morning and night Singing and Evangelistic Services. Invite people to come with you and let's pack this little church-house out!

In May, be ready for Men's and Ladies' Retreats.
For the Men's, May 1-2. They will meet at the church and leave from there.
For the Ladies' May 15-16. They will have Donna Howard as Ladies' Minister and Joan Smith will be their personal guide.

Revival May 7, 8, 9. with Bro. Butler.

June means camping, outreach, kids' retreat @ Green Pond. (between Bessemer and Tuscaloosa) If you have never been to camp, you have missed something that will stay with you the rest of your life!! I know I vividly recall days spent in camp (wayyyyy back when) There are many things to do and one of the best parts is what is absent: tv, phone, radio. Speaking from experience, that part MIGHT not be so inviting to the kids now, but it is well worth it in the long run. The beds, mealtimes, facilities, schedules, etc are a bit foreign but that is all part of the whole "camp experience" thing. It is secluded, with constant Christian activities, night services, and new friends to meet!!! SEND YOUR KIDS TO SUMMER CAMP Click on this link to check out the Camp www.campboothe.org

July 16-18 is State Convention at Metro Church of God in Birmingham. At the same time, there is a Youth Convention and Kid's Crusade. Make plans to attend, especially if you have never had the opportunity to go.

Revival is July 19-22 with Bro. Nick McSpaddin. It is never too early to pray for Revival.

Right now we have an urgent prayer request for Harold Sandlin. He is Neal's dad, Lou Carter's brother and Dianne Cockrell's uncle. The doctors are doing surgery for cancer today, Monday, April 6th. We pray for the best outcome and for the Lord to be glorified in this situation. Whenever anyone faces major surgery or a serious health issue, it is so important to pray for the family who will be there to care and support the one in need. Sickness involves the WHOLE family.

As you know, this is Easter week, and we will not be having services at WCFC. Instead, we have been invited to participate in Community-wide Service @ Faith Fellowship Church. It is located behind the Main State Bank in Winfield. Jeff Norris, Pastor of New Life Fellowship, will be bringing the message. Several churches will be involved and we want to represent our church well. It begins at 7pm. Remember, no church here Wed night.
