Inside Out
The youth are starting a new 8 week Bible study tonight at 4:30pm. This is separate from Wednesday night's "The Mix" that starts at 6:30pm. Nine students have previously signed up and will begin a study called "Crazy Love" by Francis Chan. This study focuses on walking deeper with Christ. Please be praying for these students as they study God's Word.
Voelker - February 2010
Teachers 2010-2011
God has provided teachers willing to serve the Lord here next school year. Please pray with us for Sarah Haynie and Erin Wahlstrom who are in the process of raising support to join us for 2010-2011. Meredith Peters came to us last August and has decided to return for another year. Pray for her supporters to be willing to continue to give toward her ministry here. Pray too for Tammy McComb, Laurie Flietstra and Craig and Megan Beatty, and Minne and Michelle Bouma who are currently in North America raising the necessary funds to return as career missionary teachers. God is able to supply for all of these individuals. Pray too for those who are already here as career missionary teachers; Cal, Nick Rachevsky and Phil Schlener. Ask God to con-tinue to use our staff and our school to touch lives for eternity.
Charity Voelker
Our youngest daughter will graduate from Moody Bible Institute in May. God is leading her into missions. Charity plans to do a one year missionary internship with Association of Baptists for World Evangelism. She will be working with the mobilization department, traveling to various college campuses to encourage Bible college students to give their lives to serving God in missions. We are excited about God’s leading in Charity’s life and the way that Charity can use her gifts and passions to serve the Lord in this way. Please join us in praying for her as she raises the financial support she needs to serve in this capacity. Individuals or churches can participate by pledging monthly support for a year or by giving one time gifts. If you are interested, please contact us for more information or to know how to get in touch with Charity.

New Design for MatthewsDownUnder.com
Our missionaries to Australia, Russ and Cathy Matthews have launched a new website design. You can visit it at www.matthewsdownunder.com. It was designed by Josh Byers from our Lakeside church plant.
New Website
We've just launched our new website that has been in the making for many, many months. The front page is designed to be always changing with new content almost every day. Over on the right there are links to our social networking accounts like Facebook, Twitter or our sermon audio podcasts on iTunes. We've also made it easy to listen to the most recent sermon right from the front of the site. If you're looking for something that's not right on the front page, check out the menu across the top. If you need help, just ask here and we'll try to help. Also, please give us your feedback on the new design here in the comments.
Toddler Nursery Remodel Complete
The toddler nursery remodel is now complete. The wall was taken down and a new drop ceiling installed along with canned lighting. This makes the room feel much larger and allows teachers to see all the kids at once.
