*Saturday Night Fellowship Service:

The next Saturday night service is going to be held on April 21st at 6:30 PM. This is the 3rd Saturday.

Read Joel 3:18 I hope and pray for all of you to have a wonderful Easter! I have learned much while amongst you, and I will miss you all. We will soon worship in different houses but we will worship the same risen Lord. Joel is making the point that when the Lord sets all things right a new beginning will occur. We will see marvelous things far and wide. We will know that the prophet is trustworthy when we see new growth in the land as well as within ourselves, and it will be beautiful. The Resurrection reveals the ultimate will of God- that not even death can separate us from the beauty of the new life that is to come, and this life to come will soon happen because the Risen Jesus is the new wine, the hills flowing with milk and honey, and the fountain flowing from the Lord's House.

Be at peace, Pastor David

*Congratulations to Noah Holzschuh who made honor roll again this past semester. *Congratulations to Colton Graham who participated in the Governor’s Cup State competition. This is the highest academic competition in the state of Kentucky. Colton was one of only 6 middle school students from the NKY area to receive an award. Colton won 10th place in social studies. He was awarded his medal and trophy by Governor Steve Beshear. Colton also won 11th place in science and even though he did not receive a trophy, his mom was very happy. Colton has worked

very hard this year and it paid off. Well done, Colton. Colton took the ACT as a part of the Duke Talent Identification Program. Colton’s composite score was a 30. This ranks him in the top 5% of juniors and graduation seniors in the nation and in the top 3% percent in the state of Kentucky. *Casey Graham was recognized as one of the Top 25 readers at Campbell County Middle School. She was treated to a breakfast buffet as a reward.
