A Word to Consider
April 1, April Fool’s Day…This is the day that should be dedicated to all athe-
ists. Psalm 14:1a (and 53:1) “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no
God…” However, this year April 1 is Easter Sunday and we (Christians) will
again celebrate and proclaim! Mark 16:6 “And he saith unto them, Be not
affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: He is risen; He is
not here…” Let us sing it, share it, proclaim it that Jesus is risen! To God be
the glory! Ask your pastor how you can help follow-up with the Easter
guests.
June 25 – July 1 is our return mission trip to Young Harris, Georgia. We will
help a small struggling church with maintenance on the building, outreach to
the community and encouragement to the saints. We must have commit-
ments ASAP! Call or email us if you plan to go.
July 9-16 is our planned mission trip to the Dominican Republic. Our Associa-
tional Hispanic Missionary John Gunter is leading this trip. Again, we must
have commitments ASAP! Please call or email us, or John Gunter at jdgun-
[email protected] for details.
Our Disaster Relief Team is taking shape. Training is being planned and we
need to know what area you are interested in. Our co-directors are Bruce
Andrews and Lee Childers. Call or email us!
We have begun opening the Ministry Center Store on Fridays. We certainly
could use around 20 more volunteers. Any hours, any day. Call or email us!
We need a WMU Director to serve on our association leadership team. We
are looking for someone to be Music Leader on our VBS Team. Call or email
us!
It is a joy (albeit still learning!) to serve our Lord through DBA! Robin and I
pray for each of you and ask our Lord to continue to bless each one as you
continue to serve HIM! Call or email me if I can help. NO April Fool’s joke
here!
Because of Jesus,
Love,
Bro. Jim & Mrs. Robin
DBA Missions Development News…
Matthew 5:16 says “In the same way, let your light shine before men so
they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in Heaven.”
As an Association we have several opportunities to do just that. We
would like you to prayerfully consider asking God how He wants to shine
though you. It might be here in the county, state, the U.S., or even going
to a foreign country, but God wants us all to use the time, resources, and
talents that He has blessed us with.
Also, if there is a project or place God has laid on your heart or ideas
where we can fulfill the Great Commission, please let us know.
Thank you,
Bo DeLoney
DBA Mission Team Director
