THOUGHTS FROM BRAD I want to say thanks to all the men whoparticipated in the Heath Church of Christannual Bean Dinner. It certainly was a greatnight of fellowship. I hope you will considerreturning next year and bring a friend withyou so we can bring home the bacon.
FYI This year, our schedule for EasterSunday will be 7:30(breakfast) 8:45 (BibleSchool) and 10:00 Worship. Easter this yearfalls on April 20 th . We hope you will makeplans to worship here and bring a friend withyou.
April 5- If you are looking for an opportunity
for community service, then I want to inviteyou to travel with me to the SE Ohio FoodBank in Logan, Ohio. We will work in themorning from 9:00-12:00. That means we willleave the church by 8:15 a.m. If you want togo, talk with me or sign-up on the bulletinboard in the coat room by March 30th.
I am looking forward with great anticipationabout the traveling Prayer Wall coming toFifth Avenue on May 18 th . This 27 paneledwall will be a visual reminder to us about thecall God has placed on our lives to becomeUnleashed for the Unreached. Let mejust remind our Prayer Wall Committee thatour next meeting will be at 6 p.m. on March31 st in room 214. If you would like to find outmore information concerning the PrayerWall, go to www.U4theu.com.
There is a proverb that says, We may throwthe dice, but the Lord determines how theyfall (Proverbs 16:33). Let us remember thisas we make plans in our homes and in Hischurch.
In His Service,
Brad

Reluctant Prophet: Jeremiah (Jeremiah 1)In coming weeks we will be examining the
prophetic ministries of Ezekiel, Jonah,Zechariah and Malachi. I m looking forwardto seeing all of you at the 6:00 pm service.
M I DWEEK BIBL E STUDIES : On WednesdayApril 2, we will be resuming our midweek Biblestudies. We will not be returning to the studythat was disrupted in November but will begin anew series on I Timothy. This will be one of mytypical verse/chapter studies, with studyquestions. Why not join us for the 10 am or 6:30
pm sessions?
SENIOR EVENT : Watch this space for anannouncement regarding a planned activity inApril. I continue reminding all of our seniorsof the great Senior Saints In The Smokies
program coming May 26-30, 2014. This grandgathering is held on the Johnson University(formerly Johnson Bible College) campus andis recommended for those 55 and up. (I have
been attending for over 20 years.) We,already, have 8 committed to attending and I
have mailed the first 4 reservations!Registration forms are available. If you needforms or have questions, contact me. If you,already, have registration forms, I will behappy to mail them for you. (We do use ourvans for travel.)
FI NAL THOUGHT: I want to ask, once again;if Sunday is the Lord s day, do wedemonstrate, by our lives, that we consider
only 1 or 2 hours constitute His day?

Core Values...Values central to the life, mission and
vision of Fifth Avenue Church of Christ are
Christ-Centered Worship We make it a priority every Sunday to celebrate Jesus through
music. (Romans 11:36-12:1-2). We focus on Jesus through grbased preaching and teaching & understand the Bible is ouauthority (2 Timothy 3:16).
Church Health and Biblical Balance Church health becomes reality when God's people seek harmo
live consistently. We expect every member to protect the unof Christ's Church. (Romans 12:16; 1 Peter 3:8)
Global Evangelism We are constant to our founding call to worldwide evangeli
proclaiming to all that Jesus Christ is the Savior, Healer, and SComing King (Acts 20:27).
Fellowship and Ministry After people begin their journey with Jesus, we will equip thfind a ministry based upon their strengths. We want everyon
serve in some capacity. (1 Corinthians 12:12-27) We also wanchurch to be the living evidence of His love and power to the
Discipleship We do not want you to "get religion" here at Fifth Avenue ChuChrist in Lancaster. We are all about teaching you that Jesus s
a daily relationship with Him through a life of obedience. Inwords, we want to see the things you are taught actually chan
your lifestyle & your daily decisions.
Social Conscience We place high value on the sanctity of human life, of Bibli
marriage and morality, and we welcome ethnic diversity (Is56:7; Philippians 2:15-16).
OUR PURPOSE
WE EXIST TO
Exalt Gods Greatness; Evangelize Gods Work Equip Gods People Express Gods Love through Jesus Christ
OUR MISSION
To Love God and Love
People!
H ow Can I Respond Today?At FACC we look to the Bible for guidance on allissues. We believe that Gods Word is clear
concerning what a person must do to become aChristian.
Trust that Jesus can bring you to salvation. Turn (repent) from the sin in your life. Confess your desire to make Jesus the Lord
of your life. Be baptized (immersed) in water for the
forgiveness of sins and to receive the HolySpirit into your life.
To make this li fe decision for Chri st , we ask that youcome forward duri ng our commitment song at theconclusion of the Sunday message. Bapti zed beli eversare welcome to become members at FACC by comingforward on Sunday morning or by seeing our SeniorMinister to discuss this further.
