OUR NEWEST DISTRICT PASTORAL FAMILY

We are pleased to announce that Rev. Padraic and Roxanne Ingle will be joining our district family as the parsonage family at our Sunrise Church. They will be moving in early January 2012 from Guymon, Oklahoma along with their two boys. Below is a family photo with the newest Ingle who arrived about two weeks ahead of schedule. Please pray for this family during these days of transition and adjustment.

 

 

ANNUAL DISTRICT CHRISTMAS DINNER

This year, we were forced to find a brand new location for our annual celebration due to the closing of our previous hosting facility. There were no complaints about the food, facilities and atmosphere that we received at Cherry Valley Lodge in Newark. Enjoy some of these photos.

Pastor Wes and Pauline Frederick were blessed to be the recipients of the beautiful canvass painting that has been donated by former District Superintendent, Dr. J. Wilmer Lambert for many years for this Christmas banquet celebration.

 

Here is our district treasurer, Carl Styers, presenting a puppy dog in the Christmas stocking that was given to Pastor Trevor and Mary from the district family.

Dear District Friends,

We are extremely excited to report to you the results of last week's "The Big Give" event hosted by the Columbus Foundation. There has been a lot of media coverage from 10 TV and the Columbus Dispatch about how huge of an event this was. In total, $8.7 was donated to local charities! We are pleased to inform you that during the 24 hour event, Lower Lights Christian Health Center raised $30,000! That is $30,000 that will go toward our "Transforming Lives, Improving Health" campaign. This campaign will allow us toexpand programs and services and triple the number of patients we provide care for.

We wish to extend a huge THANK YOU to everyone who supported us during this very successful day of giving! Your support for our mission, and ultimately, God's kingdom is phenomenal and we are so appreciative of it. As always, to find out more ways to be involved, check us out at our websitewww.llchc.organd on Facebookfacebook.com/llchc.

God Bless,

Lower Lights Christian Health Center
