Update: Sherry Evans (whose home burned on Christmas day), was in a car accident this morning on the way to church. She slipped on the wet pavement, dropped a tire in the steep ditch and her car flipped. A 1st responder "just happened" to be right behind her and was able to assist getting her out and Lonnie called. Praise the Lord. She has just been released from the hospital and will have a follow up MRI tomorrow. Her car is totalled, but thankfully she has just suffered bangs and bruises. It is in times like these that we remember how quickly life can change.... in the blink of an eye. Praising the Lord with Sherry and Lonnie in the midst of the present storm.

Important update: Apparently the IRS will not allow us to issue a tax deductible "giving statement" to you if you designate your giving to a specific family 🙄. If you designate your giving to "benevolance" it will go into our benevolence account, you WILL receive giving credit and our board will disburse those funds accordingly. We just can not specifically issue giving statements if your check is earmarked to any given family. Having said that, all funds received designated for Lonnie and Sherry, obviously, WILL STILL BE GIVEN to them. All funds designated "benevolance" will be disbursed according to the board decision, and you will receive a giving statment. So if a tax deduction is important for your giving, make sure you just write "benevolance" in the memo. :) http://www.bivocational.org/BIVO/PastorsToday/Benevolence_Gifts_According_to_IRS_Guidelines.htm

The Lord is always at work! His calling is powerful, and the peace and joy he brings is immeasurable. We were thrilled to join with our sisters, Betty Christie and Rita Caruthers as they made the public decision to follow Christ in water baptism. Both have followed the Lord for years but felt impressed recently to make the public proclamation of their faith by being baptized.

Our dear friends Sherry and Lonnie Evans have lost their house today. The fire is in progress currently, but it appears it will be a total loss. Several local fire departments are on scene trying to put it out. In the meantime, we are setting up an account at church to take donations to help Lonnie and Sherry. If you can make a donation, you can send it to Havest Community Church PO Box 41 Avilla, mo 64833 You can make it payable to the church (with the Evans name in the memo) or, write "benevolance" in the memo and we can give you a giving statement at the end of the year. You can also just write a check or send cash directly to Lonnie and Sherry and we will give it to them. I will post updates as to items they will need, but for now, cash donations will help a lot. We already have had someone step up and offer a house with some furnishings already in it.
