Quote of the Week

Broken Alabaster Jar
“God uses broken things. It takes broken soil to produce a crop, broken clouds to give rain, broken grain to give bread, broken bread to give strength. It is the broken alabaster box that gives forth perfume. It is Peter, weeping bitterly, who returns to greater power than ever.” - Dr. Vance Havner
Children's Moments 020920 1
Awww, isn't heartbreaking to think that God doesn't give Valentine's? On the other hand, maybe He wants to give you more than chocolates, roses, and valentine cards. Find out with Mr Tom this Sunday. But, just in case God doesn't give you any Valentine's on Sunday, you can join the Silver Saints on Saturday and celebrate Valentine's Day Italian Style. Remember you must first RSVP. See below in the following section.

Pack a Sack

Our very own Steve Olsen has been collecting food donations at Ascensus for a while now, so we invited Ascensus to come here and pack. They took us up on that last week, and we had Steve, Daniel and Hilary come and help. We were able to prep and pack for 2 weeks. We shared a lot of laughs and it’s always great to share the mission with others and have them see the true impact of their efforts. Check out the group photo on Facebook. Click on Facebook Photo

February starts the 'Have a heart, grab a heart' month along with Bridges. Last year
was really fun and hugely successful…we’ll keep you posted during the month about what we’re collecting. For those that have been asking here are a few things we are in need of:
  • Jif to go peanut butter cups – 1.5 oz.
  • Juice pouches or boxes
  • Granola Bars – kid friendly flavors
We always value your prayers for the pack a sack children, their families, the admin staff at these schools. It’s been a difficult school year, so prayers are always appreciated.

If you have any questions about Pack a Sack or purchasing items, you can always ask me at church on Sunday or feel free to call me Jamie Wright @ 813/967-3800 or contact Shaun Black.
Just a reminder for our Amazon shoppers out there - - Wesley (proceeds go to Pack a Sack) is now part of the AmazonSmile program. And for those of you who do not know about this program – here is information on AmazonSmile:
