The youth will be having a fundraiser next Sunday, March 18 immediately following the morning service. They will be providing a roast beef dinner complete with mashed potatoes and gravy, side dishes, salad, desserts, and drinks all for a suggested donation of $5.00. You can’t beat a deal like that!
Plan on staying for lunch after church, enjoying great fellowship, and helping the youth earn money for a trip to Branson, MO.
If you have any questions, please see Phyllis Fallen or Kellie Jennings.

Alan Feinstein has generously offered to distribute one million dollars across America to help with hunger issues. For the past two years, the Food Pantry Ministry has received a proportional contribution to assist our ministry.
Here’s how you can help. Mr. Feinstein will match contributions made to our food pantry in food or money during the month of March.
At the end of March, we will apply for matching funds from the Feinstein foundation. It will be awarded proportionately in competition with other food banks across America. Bring your contributions of canned goods or other groceries to our food pantry or make your checks payable to ISBC Food Pantry Ministry.
