Choose Life … As we mark the 39^th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the following quote aptly summarizes the feelings of those of us who fight for life: “I am boggled at how in one breath you can call killing a baby ‘murder’ and in the next breath you can justify this murder because you don’t want to tell others what to do.  I cannot fathom how someone can say that life is precious and should be protected, then turn around and support ‘the choice’ to destroy that very life.”  (Brian Kemper of Stand True Ministries in The Southern Cross, 2/10)     

 

           PLEASE REMEMBER – TURN YOUR

                                                 CELLPHONE OFF WHILE IN CHURCH!

                                                                                                                                         Thank you for your cooperation.
