Relay for Life


Hazel Creek is trying to form a Relay for Life Team. Faith Farley & Kim Sigers have volunteered
to get the ball rolling. We need 15 members to form a team. As everyone knows Relay for Life
raises funds for the fight against cancer. If you are interested in being a member, please e-mail
Faith "ASAP" because we don't have a lot of time. She also needs your T-shirt size.

I hope you will prayerfully consider getting involved and get in touch with Faith or Kim as soon as you
read this. And please help spread the word to members without e-mail.

Love in Christ

Terry

Kim Sigers Wins Mercy Award



Kim Sigers won the Mercy Award at Logan Memorial Hospital where she works as a Lab technician. The award began 8 years ago and is named after the founding CEO of Life Point Hospital--Scott Mercy. The Mercy award is given annually to one employee of each Life Point Hospital and then one employee is chosen as the national winner. The Mercy award is given to those who go above and beyond the call of duty at work and they are also very active in the community. Kim is an exceptional example of someone who follows the "Golden Rule". As you know Kim teaches Sunday School and works in VBS here at Hazel Creek, however, did you know that she works every year for the Relay for Life. Kim shows Christian love in so many ways, not to be recognized by others, but from the love in her heart. We are very proud of Kim and wish her well in the national competition.

Why go to Church


This one will make you stop and think. No, I can't take credit for its contents.

Why Go To Church?

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all."

This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:

"I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals But I do know this.. They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!" When you are DOWN to nothing... God is UP to something! Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible! Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!

All right, now that you're done reading, send it on! I think everyone should read this! "When Satan is knocking at your door, simply say, "Jesus, could you get that for me?"
