From Dan Dozier While JaneLee and I were students at David Lipscomb College, Dr. Joe Gray formed a group on campus

known as “Project Good News.” Having served as missionaries in New Zealand for several years, Dr. and Mrs. Gray wanted to raise the awareness of college students to the need to evangelize the world. They wanted to give students a taste of what mission work was like. They organized short-term mission trips to various parts of the world. As a result, a number of our college friends became long-term missionaries. Those of us who did not become missionaries had a new appreciation for mission work and have become lifelong supporters of mission work. “Mission Accomplished,” Dr. Gray (pardon the pun). Since those days many churches have sent groups on short-term mission trips. These days many of those trips are to parts of the world where poverty is predominant. Instead of knocking doors, they do things like dig water wells, build basic housing structures and conduct medical mission work. Those things are used to open people’s hearts to hear the gospel. The individuals from Rural Hill who are going this week to Guatemala will return as different people because of the experience they will have there. Not only will we be able to help people in that area, but also we will return with our eyes and hearts more open to the need to spread the good news about Jesus to the world. In some ways we, as individuals, and we, as a church, will benefit more from the trip than those we went to serve. Keep us and the people in Guatemala in your prayers this week.

Needs for June:

From Wilfred Salvatierra

Nuevo tiempo Haré con ellos un pacto eterno, y nunca

dejaré de hacerles bien. Pondré mi temor

en su corazón, para que no se aparten de mí. - Jeremías

32:40

Una de las cosas más bellas de ser cristianos es la

oportunidad que Dios nos da de un nuevo

tiempo, de un reinicio. El pasado no puede ser

cambiado, pero en la Biblia aprendemos que por

medio de Cristo recibimos el perdón por

nuestros errores. Hoy, el presente, es una

oportunidad que Dios te da de un nuevo tiempo,

de un nuevo comienzo. No esperes más.

¡Renueva tu vida! Confiesa tus pecados a Dios y

confía en el perdón que él te ofrece por medio

de Jesús. Hoy es un nuevo tiempo. Un tiempo

de perdón y de vivir tu vida por medio de una

nueva visión, en la perspectiva que tú fuiste

perdonado y que Dios tiene un plan maravilloso

para ti. Acuérdate que no estás solo. Dios está

contigo. Confía en él y ten la certeza de que días

mejores vendrán.

The Guatemala Mission Team leaves this Tuesday for a week of intense

work. Please pray for their safety, their

energy, enthusiasm, and the success of their

mission as they influence souls for Christ.

New Ladies Wednesday Night Class begins August 5, 2015

A Wednesday Night Ladies' Bible class will begin August 5, meeting in room 214 from 7:00 - 8:00. The class will engage in a six-week study of "God's Holy Spirit As Revealed from Genesis to Revelation." Class participants will need to spend 1-2 hours each week in Bible study. Contact Diana Crawford (615) 361-7584 or dlc1lcsw@bellsouth.net to reserve your study guide. The Ladies Class that meets in room 211 will resume at a later date.

Your influence for Christ

around the world.....

In recent bulletins, we reported on the early years of the

church in Cebu, Philippines, its growth over the years,

the development of a Christian School (K-12th grade)

and Cebu Bible College as well as the work of the college

graduates as they preach the good news to rural areas.

One final segment about the Philippine work:

Ronald Quilaton is a Philippine native who attended

Lipscomb University a few years ago. During his studies

here, Ronald was a member at Rural Hill. He is now our

point person for the work in the Philippines and teaches at

Cebu Bible College. He and his wife, Caidy, have started

the Jesan Center. The Center is dedicated to children who

are in poverty or orphaned. The staff there provides food,

a safe place, tutoring, and teaching about Christ for the

hungry street children. Above all, the love of God is

planted in their hearts.

Ronald & Caidy & new baby One of the children at

the Jesan Center

Praise God for all the mission efforts both at home and abroad. We will have a report soon from Guatemala.

New Sunday Morning Class begins, TODAY, July 19. Muslims are the fastest growing religious group in the world.

While the percentage of U.S. population that claims to be

Muslim is rather small, they are projected to grow faster than

any other US religious group, with the exception of those that

claim no religious affiliation. The Mayberry Class (Room

212) will begin a survey of the religion of Islam TODAY. This non-political and respectful study will begin with the

basics of Islamic history and belief, and also examine the

Qur’an and Islamic law, Muslim worship and daily life, and the

major forms of Islam. During the study, we will look at the

concept of Abrahamic religions as we compare Christianity and

Judaism to Islam. Mike Green will lead the study, combining

DVD resources as well as lecture and discussions. Anyone

interested in expanding their knowledge is welcome to join us.

A Wedding Shower for Lindsey Welch,

is planned TODAY (Sunday, July 19)

The M & M’s (Mature Members 55+) will meet this Tues-

day, July 21, at 6:00 p.m. for a potluck dinner in the fellowship

hall. The theme will be “Garden Party.” Vegetable dishes,

salads, and desserts are encouraged. Meat will be provided. If

you wish to dress in “farm attire” feel free to do so.
