SPECIAL PRAYER
Please continue to pray for our children at Summit Lake Camp this week, and also for our teens

REMEMBER OUR MILITARY WITH  A NOTE OF LOVE AND

ENCOURAGEMENT SALUTE THIS WEEK . . .
Jamie Child
            There are many active military that we do not have any mailing information on, and we
are inviting you, their friends and relatives to see that we get that information in order that we
can encourage them as well.  If the person that we list is no longer in the military, or if you are
aware of someone in the military that we do not have on our list, please let us know that as well. 
You can contact Pat Anderson at praiseps234@hotmail or Elaine Leiphart at
elaine.leiphart@stillnaz.com  with any names, addresses, and especially prayer concerns.

board’s leadership voted to move forward with the purchase and renovation of 350 Chestnut

survey was encouraging and held a lot of good information regarding our congregation.  This
was a year- long commitment by our leadership in preparation for our Faith Forward Campaign
in the spring of 2010.  This included Pastor Bud writing a devotional to be used by our entire
church during Lent along with sermon outlines, video production telling the Stillmeadow Story,
the development of a more cohesive functioning of the two campuses and a realization of our
entire church that we are they and they are us. Now looking through the windshield
The launch of our Faith Forward Campaign is under way.  We are seeking 100% participation. 
Dr. Stan Toler, General Superintendent in the Church of the Nazarene and founder of Forward-in
Faith, was our guest speaker for our launch.  During May we will be announcing our
participation in this faith raising campaign.  Our York City Campus renovation is underway.
