AWANA Grand Prix
The AWANA Grand Prix was a huge success! We saw a lot of family participation and had the opportunity to explain that the night was not about winning trophies, but about a relationship with Jesus Christ. Thank you, Jerry, Amy, Tom, and Cheryl, and all those who helped make another AWANA Grand Prix a night to remember.

Quotes from Church History
“Some make gods of their pleasures; some choose Mammon for their god; some make gods of their own supposed excellencies, or the outward advantages they have above their neighbors: some choose one thing for their god, and others another. But men can be happy in no other God but the God of Israel: he is the only fountain of happiness.” – Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758, English American Theologian and Pastor)

AWANA Grand Prix
Wood, sawdust, graphite, hot lead, and paint…Parents, Grandparents, and children…Hotdogs, ribbons, trophies, and games.  All of these things are part of an AWANA Grand Prix.  But none of these are the reason to have an AWANA Grand Prix.  CHBC hosts the AWANA Grand Prix in order to build relationships with guests of the church, and to present the gospel in word and deed.  Even if you do not have a child who would be racing a car, please come, be hospitable, and show the love of Christ.  The Grand Prix is Wednesday, February 26, 2020.  Dinner begins at 5:15 PM.

CHBC Student Ministry – Winter Retreat
Friday, February 21, 2020 at 6 PM our Student Ministry will leave for Falls Creek for their annual Winter Retreat.  Why should students retreat?  Our Lord and Savior would occasionally escape away to commune more closely with the Heavenly Father.  Our students will be getting away for about 27 hours in order to commune with God.  During these critical hours we should be in prayer for our students that they would see Christ and savor Him more deeply.  Pray for Pastor Jason, and Alex Meyer as they lead this trip.  Pray for Pablo Villa and Caitlyn Crosby as he preaches, and she leads in times of worship.  May this be the start of a spiritual awakening in our student ministry and church.

Quotes from Church History
“Whenever you put happiness before righteousness, you will be doomed to misery. That is the great message of the Bible from beginning to end. They alone are truly happy who are seeking to be righteous.” – D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981, Physician and Minister in England)
