Sandra, and Carolina (the lady that lives at Redbud and runs the program) did an incredible job leading the party.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The kids had learned 2 Christmas songs and 1 praise and worship song that they performed at the party. Then Sandra told the Christmas story and lead all of the kids and parents in an incredible prayer. It was truly a picture of heaven as these kids were filled with joy and wonder listening to the story of Jesus. Angelo, Sandra's husband dressed up as Santa Claus and delivered the presents to all of the kids. It was incredible !! I talked with Carolina and she said that it has been incredible to watch God move through this ministry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;There are now between 30-40 kids that come consistently Monday through Friday from 5-7.&lt;/strong&gt; They have started a bible study for the parents, and the children have started sharing their faith and what they are learning with their parents and friends. God is so Good!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you would like more information how you can help impact the lives of these precious children, please contact Sandra at &lt;a id="qa_compose1" class="email fontLink" href="mailto:avlahakis@tx.rr.com" target="new" _no_widget="true"&gt;avlahakis@tx.rr.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4568813779700381039-8473119237682043743?l=missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/feeds/8473119237682043743/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/2009/12/brad-webb-missions-pastor-writes-i-went.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4568813779700381039/posts/default/8473119237682043743'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4568813779700381039/posts/default/8473119237682043743'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/2009/12/brad-webb-missions-pastor-writes-i-went.html' title='Christmas Party at Redbud Apartments'/><author><name>Missions at the Corners</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03442073839848793277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/Sz0syucZL7I/AAAAAAAAADM/kbQ1CSRxwCA/s72-c/Sandra+preaching.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568813779700381039.post-3125397593961685335</id><published>2009-11-17T09:35:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-17T10:01:45.107-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Personal Missions and Ministry&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The Corners is incredibly blessed to have so many members of our church involved with and leading ministries.

Jesus asks to just bring what we have and he will miraculously multiply it to bless the world. &lt;strong&gt;We will be having monthly mission projects&lt;/strong&gt;. Feel free to bring your elementary age friends, neighbors, cousins - everyone is invited to participate and see God move through the children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our first mission project will be a &lt;strong&gt;Bike-a-Thon at the church on Sunday, Nov. 8th from 3-5pm&lt;/strong&gt;. We will be raising $$ to purchase keyboards for special needs children to give to Our Children's House at Baylor. &lt;strong&gt;Our own 7 year old Ashley Simmons&lt;/strong&gt; (who has cerebal palsy) is one of the patients that has benifitted from Our Children's House. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Our Children's House at Baylor&lt;/strong&gt; is a licensed pediatric hospital dedicated to giving quality care to children from infancy to age 18 who need medical care and treatment for developmental and birth disorders, traumatic injury, and severe illness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These keyboards have larger keys which allow patients to have better control in typing and will assist them in their educational progress. We will be including a book about Jesus with each keyboard. We are donating the keyboards and books about Jesus to the centers in Frisco and Allen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc0000;"&gt;Bike-a-Thon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Pledge drive to raise $$ to purchase special keyboards. Each child needs to fill out a registration card at church. The child will be given a pledge sheet and envelope to collect the $$. We're asking each child to get at least 10 pledges. The pledges can be so much $$ per lap or a flat $$ amount.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Where: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;We will hold the bike-a-thon in the parking lot of The Corners Church, Highway 121 and Custer.

We had right around 200 people from our church volunteer at all of the projects! Here is the story of all that happened that day….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It started out bright and early at 7:30 with the Food Pantry Crew. We had been collecting canned food as a church for a few weeks leading up to this day. Lisa Hoyles and Ayeshia Duru did an awesome job leading this project and getting everyone involved. To bring in more food for God’s food pantry, Beth Knights and others from the group set-up shop in front of Krogers the weekend before and were able to get 4 trunk loads of donations and also more than $150. We were able to almost triple what God’s Food Pantry had, and over 100 families will be impacted by the food we brought. Here are some pics…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 321px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 197px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392596898957893346" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZaTvNCHuI/AAAAAAAAAAk/Nd6joPc916I/s320/food+pantry.JPG" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then it was off to the Fix a House Project. Jeff Rice and Erik Rogers led an awesome group of volunteers to do some much needed work on the house of a grandmother who is raising her 2 and 4 year old granddaughters. It was an incredible opportunity for us to lend a hand, bring hope, and encourage a family with the love of Jesus. There was a lot of sweat, tree climbing, laughing, limb cutting and landscaping; and what a difference it made. It was so great to spend time at the house and pray with the family. They were so appreciative and wouldn’t stop thanking us. Here are some pics….&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 321px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 220px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392601211894533202" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZeOyJQjFI/AAAAAAAAABc/kZrDD-lxDxs/s320/Fix+a+house+group+pic.JPG" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;The group with the family&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 321px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 220px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392601199296086178" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZeODNjgKI/AAAAAAAAABU/oIrl6dRcqH4/s320/fix+a+house+family.JPG" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Rawls Family&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392601182578477842" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZeNE7xCxI/AAAAAAAAABM/RzjbjqcUGxk/s320/Fix+a+house.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Brooks(white shirt) is 6'5" so that's a huge pile of stuff we cleared&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392601170783598322" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZeMY_pdvI/AAAAAAAAABE/ygE0nxxf3uQ/s320/erik+tree.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Erik spent about 2 hours 25ft up in the tree. We gave him some banannas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392598501199155506" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZbxABHkTI/AAAAAAAAAA0/NvFZSF49a30/s320/carrie+tree+cutting.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Erik's wife, Carrie, was trying to cut down the branch he was on.

The Picnics are always a blast to be at! Getting to have fun with friends, meet new people, and getting to chow down on food makes serving seem more like a party. But there is a purpose behind the fun. Over 100 people from the community were fed, many of them might not have had a meal that day otherwise. I saw people being prayed for, the gospel being shared, and invitations to join us at church happening left and right. Chad Price absolutely went beyond anything I could have ever hoped for in leading this project. His spirit was all over this picnic and made it awesome. Who would have thought that grilling hot dogs, playing music, and a bounce house could open so many doors to impact the kingdom. One family, who did not speak English, asked if we had a Spanish service. When they were told we didn’t, they still said they wanted to come because they just wanted to be around us again and feel more of the love they received from our church. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392609288238474994" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZlk43tJvI/AAAAAAAAACE/FgLjfyloOyw/s320/Remy+holding+baby.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;My Wife Remy taking every chance she gets to hold a baby.

They have painted faces at all of our picnics and do an incredible job. Many times they are painting for 4+ hours and never take a break. This is probably the number one attraction for the families and kids in the area. I don’t know how they do it, but it is awesome to see them steward their talent and be so selfless to make an impact for the kingdom. Not a single kid leaves that face painting chair without a huge smile on their face. Thank you so much John and Jovana. You have no idea what an encouragement you are to me and how thankful I am to have y’all at our church. &lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392606151942399890" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZiuVQc55I/AAAAAAAAABs/JbEw1IB8kuk/s320/Jovana.JPG" /&gt; Jovana, you're awesome!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 321px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 248px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392606138196451570" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZitiDKYPI/AAAAAAAAABk/-5cAXw6FS14/s320/John.JPG" /&gt; John, you're cool too!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bruno cut hair for anybody at the park who needed it. It was another awesome way to engage the people at the park. I haven’t known Bruno for all that long, but I can just feel the heart of Jesus in him and it was such a great experience to watch him minister to people with his gifts and talents. And if that wasn’t enough, his wife Rene was an outreach and ministry machine at the picnic. There wasn’t a second that I didn’t see her speed walking to welcome the next family and make sure they were taken care of. Many of the families only spoke Spanish, and although she is far from fluent, you wouldn’t have known it on that day. She said she didn’t know how to explain it, but she could understand and communicate in a way she never has before. God is pretty cool at using what little we have and making God sized things out of them. My heart overflowed with joy watching her and hearing her share what God did in, and through her that day. I truly got to witness heaven coming to earth in an incredible way through the Lopez’s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392598490228766914" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZbwXJkuMI/AAAAAAAAAAs/JFl55-IBlJU/s320/bruno+haircut.JPG" /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Bruno cutting some hair.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are those times when you look at somebody and although they still look like themselves, it is undeniable that you are getting a glimpse of Jesus. One of those times just happened to be when I turned around to see this… &lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392616788563854978" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZsZdwoBoI/AAAAAAAAACc/8ydWkllwWqY/s320/SOS+prayer+pic.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Candice Praying with new friend. Coolest Pic of SOS!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The compassion, the courage, and the heart of Jesus was displayed all day by Candace, but this moment captured it all for me. It was such a powerful moment that it almost brought me to my knees. Jesus is Good! Darryl Thrasher ended up continuing to minister to this guy and stepped out in faith when he felt God telling him to get his contact info and follow up after. We ended up taking him to lunch the Tuesday after and we’ll continue to show him the love of Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was such a great crowd at the end of the picnic that we decided to move the location of the Back Yard Bible Club to the park where the picnic was and continue to minister to that area. Darryl and Micole Thrasher did an incredible job improvising and leading their group despite the changes. The kids loved doing all of the crafts and activities that they had planned, it was a great way to engage whole families.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392606166600516322" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZivL3OAuI/AAAAAAAAAB0/6a8Mz8MsmLY/s320/pastor+carol+jr.JPG" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Pastor Randy, Carol, and JR&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yvonne Mains and Lori Blackwell went to a battered women’s shelter called Emily’s House and ministered to the lady’s there by giving them manicures and pedicures. They also did the same thing at a nursing home in the afternoon. I was not able to be at there, but heard an incredible report of all the ways Jesus moved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lastly Dave Dryden Sr. had a handful of guys help some families in our church with some projects that were desperately needed. Just another way to be the love of Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can’t thank everyone in our Church enough. It is incredible to be a part of a Church that is actively transforming the world around them with the love of Jesus. Stay Tuned for more. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4568813779700381039-3454207575684146140?l=missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/feeds/3454207575684146140/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/2009/10/sos-was-incredible-day.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4568813779700381039/posts/default/3454207575684146140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4568813779700381039/posts/default/3454207575684146140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/2009/10/sos-was-incredible-day.html' title=''/><author><name>Missions at the Corners</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03442073839848793277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gZdnXGoNu3I/StZaTvNCHuI/AAAAAAAAAAk/Nd6joPc916I/s72-c/food+pantry.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568813779700381039.post-423975635860377089</id><published>2009-09-15T08:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-28T15:21:39.647-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SOS'/><title type='text'>Saturday of Service (SOS)</title><content type='html'>Mark your calendars for the next &lt;strong&gt;Saturday of Service (SOS) on Saturday, October 3rd&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This one is sure to be bigger and better yet !!

First they go to the homes and invite people to come eat &amp;amp; hear a word of God. They have been doing this for three weeks now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first week they had about 40 people, the second about 35 people and this week there were at least 80. It was awesome!!!  Next week we are going to do a bible lesson for the kids since there were so many.  We have also been telling these people about the upcoming picnic and many of them came to the last one and are excited about the next one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two women came up after the sermon and asked for prayer. I believe more will come forward as time goes on. &lt;strong&gt;One young man (19yrs) gave his life to Christ and is going to be baptized. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was a huge mix of people coming out to eat, fellowship and hear Gods word. Several who came out were families, moms, dads &amp;amp; their kids. We really tried to talk to them and engage them in conversation and they were receptive. It was such a beautiful to see all these people gather around at the end and hold hands to pray. I am sure the heavens were rejoicing.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4568813779700381039-3891902394782860123?l=missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/feeds/3891902394782860123/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/2009/09/missions-testimony.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4568813779700381039/posts/default/3891902394782860123'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4568813779700381039/posts/default/3891902394782860123'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://missionsatthecorners.blogspot.com/2009/09/missions-testimony.html' title='Missions Testimony'/><author><name>Missions at the Corners</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03442073839848793277</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568813779700381039.post-6618697932727917308</id><published>2009-09-15T07:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-15T08:42:31.331-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus Loves You Celebration - Sept 19'/><title type='text'>Jesus Loves You Celebration - this Sat 9/19 !!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This Saturday!!&lt;/strong&gt; September 19th from Noon - 3pm at Old Settlers Park in East McKinney (where we had the first SOS picnic in March). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contact: Carol Wood phone: 806 282-0447; email: &lt;a href="mailto:c-hinojosa@hotmail.com"&gt;c-hinojosa@hotmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sandra Vlahakis phone: 972-704-9597 email: &lt;a href="mailto:avlahakis@tx.rr.com"&gt;avlahakis@tx.rr.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Needs:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;handing out fliers in neighborhood @ 10:00am&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;setting up at 10:00 am&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;serve, fellowship and share the word of Christ during the picnic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;clean up after the picnic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Please pray that God pour out his holy spirit so that lives will be touched, souls will be saved.
