(John testified concerning him. He cried out, saying, “This is the one I spoke about when I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’”) ¹⁶ Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given. ¹⁷ For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.   Pew Notes John 1, 14-18, The Word Became Flesh, Part 2

Everyone, please be in prayer for our AWANA Games group that will be heading to Southaven next Saturday morning, which will include your pastor and his family.  We participated last year and it was a wonderful blessing.

Here is a schedule of what remains:

• This Friday, March 15, 5:30pm – 8:00pm – FINAL AWANA PRACTICE

It will be very important to be at this last practice.  Parents, we will go over details of when/where/how Saturday, March 23rd will work.  We also need a signed release form for each child and parent volunteer.  We could use a few more sprakies, even if you missed the first practices, we could work you in.  We need 10 and only have 9.

• Next Saturday, March 23rd – Travel to Southaven for AWANA GAMES – return later that day around 7pm – Church Van will be going if you want to ride, but you need to let us know ASAP.

**The Kids have been working hard and are ready to go!  It will be an exciting event.  Please call Brian or Sarah (662-570-1119) if you have any questions/problems.

We will need over 100,000 signatures to get this amendment on the ballot.  Please be in prayer for this endeavor.  All of the issues voiced about language, birth control and Invitro fertilization have been addressed through focus group interviews and countless other sources of consulting.

¹⁴ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. ¹⁵ (John bore witness about him, and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.’”) ¹⁶ For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. ¹⁷ For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.
