Thought for the Week
Jesus said to His followers, “In the world you will have tribulation,” but “in me you may have peace” (John 16:33).
Ron and Joke Jones serve with the Christian and Missionary Alliance in Israel. And during a tumultuous time in the Middle East, they wrote the following in a prayer letter:
The result of the fighting and killing has left a profound sense of discouragement that hovers over the country. Several times we have come into closer contact with this conflict than our comfort zone allowed.
Yesterday a friend shared with us something she observed that was a delightful reminder of God's care for us. She watched a shepherd caring for his flock near the area where guns are fired. Every time the shots rang out the sheep scattered in fright. The shepherd then touched each of them with his staff and spoke calmly to them, and the sheep settled down immediately because they trusted the shepherd. And then another shot sounded, and the same routine happened again. Each time, the sheep needed the shepherd to orient them again and to reassure them they were safe (Ron and Joke Jones, Christian and Missionary Alliance missionaries).
My dear friends, that’s what the Good Shepherd does for you, too! He brings peace even when you’re under fire, so trust Him!

News!
Ladies Bible Study, 6-7 p.m. every Monday @ Faith Bible Church. Nancy Hicks leads a study in God’s Word focusing on the women of the Bible. Invite your friends and join this life-transforming fellowship focused on the issues women face in our world today.
Celebrate Recovery, 6:30 p.m., every Monday at Kings Cross Church (former Presbyterian Church on 221 South Pioneer Street, Lyons, KS). Celebrate Recovery is a safe place to find freedom from your hurts, hang-ups, and habits. Celebrate Recovery is for EVERYONE! No one should have to face their pain alone. We are a grace-filled community of strugglers who courageously enter this safe and beautiful space to get honest about our pain and the negative ways we may see ourselves, God, and others. In this process, we come to accept that some of the habits we have developed to escape our pain may have hurt us and those close to us. It is a biblically based approach to help us achieve long lasting recovery by healing our hurts, guiding us toward new healthy truths, and developing life-giving habits.
Men of Faith meets at 6:45 a.m. to 7:45 a.m. every Tuesday morning in the lobby at Faith Bible Church. "As iron sharpens iron," men are invited to sharpen one another in the middle of each week before work during a time of mutual encouragement, Bible study, and prayer (coffee provided).

Caregiver Support Group, first meeting, 6 p.m., Thursday, April 16, at Faith Bible Church. Caring for a loved one is difficult work. It can often leave a strong person feeling overwhelmed and stressed.
