We are so excited about the new steel pan! We have been wanting to incorporate the steel pan into our worship services for a while. Now we can do just that! Special thanks to Nikki for using her connections to get us a good deal, and special thanks to Pastor Eric for doing all the running around to make it happen!
Here is the story behind the hymn:
Jesus Saves
The heart of the Christian gospel is a person, not a church or a system of doctrines. The angel proclaimed: “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:21)
Priscilla J. Owens, a Baltimore public school teacher for 49 years, wrote these stirring soul-winning words for a missionary service in the Sunday school of the Union Square Methodist Church.
Fourteen years later, William Kirkpatrrick wedded his vibrant music to her words.
And through the years they have challenged God's people with the urgency of soul winning.

Pastor Eric caught the camp experience from the very beginning as he was there Saturday, Sunday, and Monday! Here are some still shots and video from his camera.
Wow!! Dillon can really eat!
Here are some of the still shots from the Running with Patience Camp 2009!
Camp this year was great! I was only able to be there for the last two days, but I really enjoyed it. Last year was my first experience with camp in Trinidad, and my first experience with that time honoured tradition known as "pasting". Learning my lesson from the past I stayed up all night and shot pics and video of everone else getting pasted this year.
Aside from the lessons from Mr. Colgate and Mr. Crest (tartar control of course), there was also great Bible teaching and good fellowship. I am looking forward to next year!
