March 16-18 We are excited about the student discipleship weekend that is coming up March 16-18 at Philippi. DNOW is a time when our students will be separated into

small teams that will be hosted for the weekend by families in our church. Each group will have devotions together each day lead by college students from NGU. There is a legendary competition call the Amazing Race that all teams will compete in on Saturday. Please pray for the host homes and all involved. If you would like to help with this weekend, please let me know. Pastor Robert
