West Lynchburg Baptist Church

April 13, 2014 Volume 4, Issue 13

The church with heart in the heart of the city.

Just Around The Corner...

He is risen! W.E. Sangster (1900-1960), a well-known pastor in England, contracted a progressive, incurable muscle disease. He lost the ability to move his legs, and eventually his voice faded away. Because Sangster wanted to continue serving God even though he could no longer preach, he became a prolific writer and organized prayer cells throughout England. On Easter morning, shortly before his death, Sangster wrote a note to his daughter in an unsteady hand. It is terrible to wake up on Easter morning and have no voice to shout, He is risen! he wrote. But it would be still more terrible to have a voice and not want to shout. -The Newsletter

A Special Note To: Congregation DRUMMER NEEDED: We are currently searching for an experienced drummer who is a team player to play regularly on Sunday mornings. Primary responsibilities would include a 9:00 AM rehearsal/run through and 11:00 AM worship. If you are interested or know of someone who might be, please give Randy a call.

The Mission Team has put a city, country, and world map on the bulletin board on the 2nd floor of the Education building. We would like you to take a pin and pin where you have participated in Missions. It does not matter if you were a member of this church or another church. The point of this is to see where we have been and where we can go. Once you look at the maps, one can easily see there is a world of opportunity that remains.

Kens Deacon Families Ian, Melissa, Nicole, Jonathan & Ashley Bacon Micah & Miho Camarata Ryan Campbell William & Nancy Davis David Gallop David & Melissa Gunter Vance & Stacy Matthews Lynn Mayberry BIBLE QUESTION All four gospels tell of Jesus resurrection, but each gives a different list of women as the first to arrive at the empty tomb. Which woman appears in all four accounts? A. Joanna B. Mary, the mother of Jesus C. Salome D. Mary Magdalene E. Mary, the mother of James (Matt. 28:1; Mark 16:1; Luke 24:10; and John 20:1.) This is a little story about four people: Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done, and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybodys job. Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldnt do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
Pray for the people of South Asia.
