The Bazaar at Lost
Creek was a roaring suc-
cess. Inspite of the rainy
weather, it was a packed
house. At the end of the
day, everything was
largely sold out. This
year!s bazaar was the
biggest ever, and we'd
like to thank everyone
who supported it.

Nazarene Church of
Stillwater speak about
the work of Gideons In-
ternational. Also, in
recognition of Universal
Bible Sunday, youth at
Eden Chapel were
presented with a new
Bible•
Ne~t Sunday will be a
special Sunday at both

blessings bestowed upon
the Eden Chapel and
Lost Creek Churches,

an evening in fellowship,
sharing and praise on

The Lord has given all
