ONE DOLLAR & ONE CAN of SOUP

YCM’s SOUPER BOWL of CARING

This Sunday – February 2nd Just two weeks ago, Yadkin Christian Ministries

assisted 92 families and gave out 350 bags of food

in 2 days. We’re called to respond as God’s people

sharing His love in tangible ways with our neighbors.

Let’s be generous in our giving, doing more than

merely watching a football game. We can

make a difference in the lives of others!!

He is best known for his leading role in the television series ChiP’s. He plays the role of a high school janitor and volunteers to help the students salvage their drama and music programs. He will be speaking before the showing of the film; as well as, Jason Campbell, Dean Haskins and recording artist - Brandy Allison. She is the writer and composer of the music used in the film.

7 pm debate of decade

mbc fellowship hall

Is creation a viable model of origins in today’s modern, scientific era? Leading creation apologist and bestselling Christian author Ken Ham will debate this question with popular TV personality and evolution apologist Bill Nye. Each

man will share information supporting their respective position and then there will be an opportunity for rebuttal and afterward questions submitted by the audience. This debate has already generated significant media attention and

tickets to attend this debate at the Creation Museum sold out within 2 minutes.

Dear Maplewood Church Family, After considerable thought and prayer, I have decided to resign

my position as church & financial secretary. I assure you it was

not an easy decision to make.

As you know, I have continued in my other part-time job, working

from home. Although I entered this endeavor with the earnest

belief I could do both and carry out my responsibilities as a mother

& wife, it has proved to be far more of a challenge that I expected.

I value the experience I have received at Maplewood, and greatly

appreciate your giving me this opportunity. Maplewood is truly a

special place. I have been touched by the warmth and kindness

demonstrated to me by each church member that I have met.

I wish you all the best and will pray for a smooth transition.

Sincerely,

Jodi Gough

What happens when we forget the basics in any area of life? We run the risk of abandoning what brought us to the this moment. Innovation occurs as we bring the basics of our faith into the present and future - not as we change what we believe.
