Connecting With Christ
Some years ago, I was hanging around
Join a Mission Trip to Mt. Hagen,
Papua New Guinea, July 17-28, 2019
Come join Quiet Hour Ministries’ team
to share the love of Jesus in Mt. Hagen,
Papua New Guinea, and have a life
changing experience! This trip will be
special for many reasons. The last trip to
Papua New Guinea was in 2008, and the
people are eager to have us back after
11 years and hear God’s word. This is a
perfect opportunity for you to join us in
sharing your passion for Jesus. Help us
conduct outreach through 5 unreached
sites!
There is a great need for the amazing
grace of Jesus to be shared in Papua
New Guinea. This trip will include Vaca-
tion Bible School programs at 5 sites, eye
clinics and a church renovation project.
In addition, health talks will be included
with the evening evangelism meetings.
Make wonderful memories while win-
ning souls for God’s kingdom. We look
forward to serving with you!
Here’s what you can do in the mission
field!
PICK A MORNING ROLE:
• Eye Clinic or (medical & dental clinics
can be held if appropriate medical &
dental volunteers join the mission team)
• Construction
PICK AN EVENING ROLE:
• Children’s Ministry

Sometimes a rotation may be possible so
you can experience both options!
with a group of adventurers after their
weekly meeting when a little boy came
running up to me. Nathan couldn’t
wait to share with me that he cut his
head and the doctor put staples in to
treat the wound. As I looked for and
couldn’t find the cut in his thick hair, I
began feeling for a bump—and found
it (along with the cut and staples!)
I was reminded of my mom telling me
I’d come in crying when I was young
and she’d wonder where I had cut
my head “this time.” What a job my
mother had, yours, too— and oth-
ers continue to experience! Praise the
Lord for Susi, the incredible, wonderful
mother of our kids.
As Mother’s Day is approaching I have
reminisced about my mom and how
this is my eighth Mother’s Day without
her. I’ve thought of those of you who
miss your mothers, some for the first
time, others for years. I hurt for those
who have had a biological mom but not
a mother.
Moms are definitely needed! The good
news for God’s children is He promises,
“As a mother comforts her child, so will
I comfort you...” (Isa. 66:13)
Along with you, praising God for earthly
and heavenly Mothers,

Dear Church Family, FOCUS ON MISSION is what we for-
merly called “announcements.” Why
On this day that we honor mothers, it’s the name change? Everything we do,
good for us to think about how much every meeting, every event, every
you moms really do, or have done. Be- hike, every trip, is intended to fulfill our
ing a mother is not a walk in the park… mission. What is our mission?
By the time a child reaches 18, a mother Jesus gave the task to: “Go and make
has had to handle some extra 18,000 disciples of all nations...” (Mt. 28:18)
hours of child-generated work. In fact,
There are only 2 real offices in the
women who never have children enjoy
church, bringers, and includers. All
the equivalent of an extra three months ministry at Campus Hill falls into these
a year in leisure time! 2 areas. When we are sitting next to
someone at our Fellowship Luncheon,
A Junior High science teacher lectured when we ride on the train on a Prime
on the properties of magnets for an en- Timers trip, when take time for any-
tire class. The next day he gave his stu- one, young or old, we are fulfilling our

this: “My name begins with an “M,” has
six letters, and I pick things up. What It’s never enough to just do an activ-
am I?” Half the kids in the class wrote, ity for the activity’s sake, we must ask
“Mother.” ourselves what part the activity plays
in making disciples!
That reminds me of the father who was
trying to explain the concept of mar-
riage to his 4-year-old daughter. He got
out their wedding album, thinking visual
images would help, and explained the
entire wedding service to her. When he
was finished, he asked if she had any
questions. She pointed to a picture of
the wedding party and asked, “Daddy,
is that when mommy came to work for
us?
Thanks, all you “moms” out there who
have given so much! — Pastor Mark

YOUR CHURCH NEEDS YOU!
It’s time again for you to prayerfully
consider where God is calling you
to serve as a member of the body of
Christ here at Campus Hill.
Each member is a necessary part in
making our church all God intends it
to be. Without your God-given gifts,
our church won’t be at full-strength.
Prayerfully consider where you might
be hearing God’s call to “improve
your serve!” If you’re not sure,
wondering where to serve, needing
some direction, schedule a time to
meet with one of our pastors.
We desire to help you find your spot
so you can realize Jesus’ words,
“It is more blessed to give than to
receive.”
Grace Notes
“Can you feel the hug of
heaven as you leave
your past behind you—
leave your sins and all
your merits,
held by grace and
grace alone? Can you
hear the words cascading:
“This one’s mine!”
— Pastor Bill Knott
