2015
I am still not all I should be, but I am focusing all my energies on this
one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies
ahead, I strain to reach the end of the race and receive the prize for
which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us up to heaven. (NLT)
Philippians 3:13-14

THAILAND MISSION TRIP
An exciting mission opportunity - expressing the love of God to Thai students.
We have a fantastic team going to Chiang Mai Thailand to work with the Tilleys in
their language school for an entire month. We will not only reach out to the Thai
students but offer real support and encouragement to the Tilleys who were sent out
from SCC and have been serving for nearly a decade in Thailand.
We would love our church family to be a part of this mission…
MOST OF ALL WE NEED YOUR PRAYERS!
IF YOU ARE ABLE, WE WOULD LOVE YOUR HELP!
This mission trip comes at a significant cost both in time and finances to our team.
If you would like to financially support you can:
Place your gift in an envelope marked THAILAND and: put in offering bags / give to
church office / pass to one of the team or ...
