Our spies make use of every mobile technology, and one has just contacted us from the road by carrier pigeon. The spy reports that they have just crossed into New Jersey, and expect to be in the church parking lot about 10:30 AM.

Welcome home, weary travelers!

Quizzing may be over, but Nationals is Not!

Remember to keep praying for safety, fun, and spiritual awakening for the students in Columbus, Ohio. Events like this can easily lead to revivals both in the town where they take place, and all the way back home. Pray that the Spirit will move, and the Lord will work in their hearts today and the remainder of the week!
