Notes of
Thanks
Thank you to my church family for
all the cards, calls, and support during my illness. It
meant so much to me.
In
Christ,
Genneil Nye
We are
so blessed to be part of God's family at West-Ark. The
cards, visits, food and prayers have comforted us as we
begin to heal from the loss of Harold -- husband,
father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. Though
we miss him so much, we rejoice that his suffering has
ended and he is receiving his reward from the
Lord.

We're
missing 2/3 of our pie! The Tutoring Program has about a
third of the tutors, tutor subs, and snack providers
needed.
Please weigh and measure what you
are doing on Tuesday afternoons to see if you have time
to help a child in Kindergarten through 6th grade.
If you have questions, ask Sheila, Karen
Farris, Leslie Holland, or Jack Lewis.
Please
look for the little red schoolhouse in the foyer and
sign up. If you have questions, please call Sheila
Vaught at or talk to Karen Farris, Leslie
Holland, Jack Lewis or any of our past tutors.
