Small Group Bible Study - We are planning our next small group Bible Study on “Prayer”. Since this is a 12 week study we are going to get started a little early so as not to get too far into spring. Prayer is to the spiritual life what breathing is to the physical life. “Pray without ceasing”, "Brethren, pray for us”, “Watch and Pray”. Prayer is mentioned over 400 times in the Bible. Let us together search this wonderful and incredible gift God has provided for us. Prayer is our lifeline to God. Signup sheets are in the North hall or you can email Bro. Jeremy Knepp at jrknepp@frontier.com with your preferred times to meet.
Winter World Relief Project - A group from Princeville & Bradford is planning to take a bus to Arkansas the 2nd week in February to help out with the winter World Relief project. There is extra room on the bus and they would like for you to go with them. Anyone interested should contact Bro. Jim Braker for further details.
