Bible Fellowship Classes at Immanuel have an "Adopt a Serviceman" program and they adopt a man or woman who is serving overseas and send them cards, letters and packages. Below is a picture of a bulletin board in Room A207 that shows how the classes are supporting our troops.  "Haven't I commanded you: be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." |
THANK YOU to Rev. John Potter for the following poems regarding the military.
John has a great heart for this ministry.
A Merry Christmas
