Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret—it leads only to evil.
Psalms 37:8
Baptist Press
I especially enjoyed the article about ministry in Plant City, Florida.

Senior Adult Lunch
Don’t forget the lunch for senior adults at Charlie’s in Springfield.
If you are not able to go, please pray for those who will be traveling as a group, both on a bus and in cars.
Some OCC Needs Already Met
We already have enough combs and toothbrushes. You can continue to bring washcloths (need 40), marbles, and flashlights. As Sunday School classes meet this week, please consider purchasing marbles and flashlights as a group. Wanda Smith will gladly order online for you and have the package sent directly to the church. Also, remember the drop-off box, a bright green tote, in the hallway in the basement (under the sanctuary).
Thank you for your early support and your continuing support. You will help make a difference in the lives, now and eternally, of 650 children and their families, around the world. In 2023, our boxes that have already been sent out from Dallas, went to Ghana and countries that cannot be identified.
We are sharing a new shopping list each month. Let’s shop for this one now, knowing a new list will be given to you soon.
Continue to pray for the children who have and who will receive our 2023 shoeboxes and those who work with these childrens in their home countries. I leave you with this thought, “Jesus loves all the childre no matter what county they live in.
Thank-you for praying and for shopping!
