April 18th Announcements

Class went great yesterday. Thanks to Jared for teaching the lesson. We studied Acts 9:1-16 and had really good involvement and discussion. It's spring time and we're all coming out into the sunshine and our calendars are getting full. Please remember to place lifegroup and church on your priority list and take part in as many of our ministries and events as you can.
