The latest...
Mission Possible, our annual mission conference, was the best ever. The kids enjoyed a petting zoo of African and Israeli animals. We had the race between the tortoise and the hare. The tortoise won! Our missionaries to Africa and our Jewish missionary to St. Louis spoke and we enjoyed a Passover Seder and an Israeli breakfast.
100 foot banana split was attended by 100 of our Awana children. Wallhouse provided 11 gallons of ice cream and our township trustee made 10 gallons of ice cream with his custom-made ice cream machine.

1 llama, 4 goats and 240 people filled the Chili Crossroads Bible Church for the 2011 Christmas Pageant. The most fun was watching the children sing!

The Daughter Banquet was a tremendous success. Over 140 ladies enjoyed shrimp, crab salad, fresh smoked beef brisket. The auditorium was packed with tables and the men of the church served a beautiful meal.

40 of the great folks at the Chili Crossroads Bible Church worked shifts at the 2011 Coshocton County Fair. They did 520 Spiritual Viewpoint Surveys and got to see 76 people trust Christ as their Savior. What a great experience! This was a fun and easy way to share the good news that "Christ died for our sins and rose again." We made a lot of new friends in the community and are seeing friends we made there come to church. We can hardly wait for next year to do it again!
Thanking God for our new bus...
God has blessed our church with a beautiful 33-seat bus. We've taken it to Chicago and the big screen TV kept us entertained. We use it every Wednesday night to pick up kids at the park in Baltic for AWANA clubs. The bus arrives at 6pm and returns at 8:20pm. Come have a blast with us!
Every Wednesday night from 6:30-8pm we have a blast with AWANA clubs for kids aged 2-18...and an adult Bible study on life's BIG questions. Come join the fun!
