Hello C3 families. It was a blessing to start out the day with praise and worship and an encouraging word from Gods word.  I think it changed the environment of the entire day, what do you think?  Thanks to Joshua Randle for being willing to come and be used to lead us into Gods presence through praise and worship.  We may have some volunteers within our ranks to do praise and worship each Tuesday morning!  I'll keep you posted on that. 

Next weeks presenters will be:
Isaiah Simpson
Jesse Murillo
Elisha Cecil

Have a great week,
