The Search for the Lost Coin
Kid’s Church and The RUSH class are in a race to see who can collect the most coins to send to the Burgers to help in Haiti.

Please support our children’s efforts to help their adopted Haitian brother Chrislin. They would welcome your donations!!

Life Group Leaders:
Please turn in your list of members and your time and date of meetings to Sarah Gerber this week.
Seedtime and Harvest
The Bible says in Genesis 8:21-22 NKJV “And the LORD smelled a soothing aroma. Then the LORD said in His heart, ‘I will never again curse the ground for man’s sake, although the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done. While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, And day and night shall not cease.’”
This was just after Noah and his family left the ark and had offered up sacrifices in worship to the Lord. This was one of the early covenants of God, and the truths God spoke at that time still affect us today.
During March, Pastor Cameron will explore how the promise of “seedtime and harvest” affects many areas of our lives. Each Sunday we will look at how this promise can influence different aspects of our lives, so don’t miss it!
