CentriKid

2018

Our children are preparing to go to camp this summer!

Our Spencer family has always been so generous in terms

of helping kids go to camps. There are several ways you

can help. First, attend our “camp lunches” once a month.

The children and youth who work at those events are the

ones who benefit from your donations. Second, consider a

donation to provide a scholarship to camp for one who

may be struggling to come up with the $280 it costs! No

amount is too big or too small. And third, pray even now

for the experience that these children will have when

attending camp this summer. There is no money value that

we can place on a child’s spiritual development. Pray that

God will speak, and our children will respond.

SUNDAYS in MARCH

As we approach Easter, we will

have special worship each Sunday.

On March 4, we will observe

Communion as we begin our focus on

the days leading up to Jesus’

crucifixion. On March 11, we will

focus on Judas’ betrayal of Jesus and

then on March 18, we will look at Peter’s denial. On

the 25th, we will be led in worship by our Adult

Choir. We hope you can join us as we celebrate

Jesus’ willingness to die for us.

WRITE A REFLECTION

On a recent trip to Charlotte, Bob Hensley and I

had some great conversations about some of the former

members of Spencer. Many names of great men and

women who are now in heaven came up. We thought it

would be great to have some of these written down and

then shared with the church. Would you be willing to

write a reflection about some of these influential people?

If so, we would love to have them ready for our “Birthday

Celebration” on April 22. If you could bring them by the

Church office by March 30, we would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance for sharing some of your memories of

these great people.
