No more excuses...rain or shine, you can walk a mile inside the church. Just follow the static cling footprints on the walls! Each footprint contains a bible verse & number. Start at the main entrance. Follow the numbered footprints down hall toward nursery, up stairs & walk 2nd floor of education building, walk around to steps going to 3rd floor, walk around inside of large youth room, come back down stairs to breezeway, enter sanctuary, follow footprints across back wall, go up steps on Eldon St. side, follow numbers as you have to crisscross the balcony several times, then come down stairs on fellowship hall side, make 2 passes through FH, come back across the lower level breezeway, & back up steps to main level, & walk back to main entrance. Now follow that path 3 times in total & you will have completed a mile. If you prefer to walk outside, 4 times around the block of the church equals a mile, also.

There was a barber that thought that he should share his faith with his customers more than he had been doing lately. So the next morning when the sun came up and the barber got up out of bed he said, "Today I am going to witness to the first man that walks through my door." Soon after he opened his shop the first man came in and said, "I want a shave!" The barber said, "Sure, just sit in the seat and I'll be with you in a moment." The barber went in the back and prayed a quick desperate prayer saying, "God, the first customer came in and I'm going to witness to him. So give me the wisdom to know just the right thing to say to him. Amen." Then quickly the barber came out with his razor knife in one hand and a Bible in the other while saying "Good morning sir. I have a question for you... Are you ready to die?"
