PRINTS OF PEACE

SATURDAY, APRIL 28 8:00 AM

Matthew 25:40 “...Inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.”

Operation Inasmuch is a movement of churches across America, a Com-passion Revolution, that focuses on serving those in need through local area churches. Over 1600 churches in 21 states have joined the Revolution. And as more Christians from more churches start to serve their neigh-bors in need, more lives change in the community and in the church.

RCBC has some projects that we will be doing in our own community. Projects include cleaning, light carpentry, yard work, and most importantly, sharing Jesus Christ. There is something for everyone to do; families are welcomed and encouraged to participate! We need many hands and feet; please sign-up in your Sunday School classrooms as we serve others in the name of Jesus. (Lunch will be provided.)
