What’s Happening for January 15th–21st
VERSE OF THE WEEK
1 John 1:5-8 ~ “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.”
WORSHIP SONGS FOR THIS WEEKEND’S SERVICES:
| Trading My Sorrows | Surrender |
| Your Great Name | Heart of Worship |
| Christ Is Risen | Here I Am to Worship |
| Your Beloved |

Hello Pure Heart Christian Fellowship,
I am the Resource Coordinator at Andalucia Middle, on North 47th Avenue and West Campbell Avenue. I’m starting up a new mentoring program for our at-risk students, and would like to see if any of your staff or followers would like to help us mentor, one day per week. These students live in the heart of Maryvale, and are going through poverty, homelessness, potential gang involvement… they can really use a good role model. This would make a big impact on our student’s lives, and give you an excellent opportunity to give back to the community. Hopefully you will be able to assist me with this new project.
I’m not sure who to address this email to, so if you can forward this to the right person I would greatly appreciate it. I would like to meet with someone and talk more about this community project. For additional information or for any questions please give me a call at my office, 623-848-8646 x6409.
Best regards,
Erich
