Vacation Bible School is just around the corner (Aug.) and we are beginning the planning process now. The second meeting will be June 18th following morning worship in the fellowship room. We need teachers and helpers (ages 13 and up) to volunteer their time and love in sharing the gospel. Our VBS is a fun time in the Word of God and our focus is always the Bible and one of our missionaries. If you haven’t been involved in VBS in the past or if you have taken a break for a few years, this year would be an excellent time to rejoin the staff! We can use full time (all five day) helpers or just one day helpers.

Ruling Elder James Bruder, a charter member of Faith Presbyterian Church died May 21, 2006. Funeral services were held at church on Thursday, May 25th. For some who are newer to our congregation, Jim was truly a founding father of Faith Presbyterian Church, and we have an indebtedness to him that many will not realize. Praise God for His faithfulness in not forsaking His promises. “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.” Psalm 91:1
