What better way to celebrate the gift of motherhood than by helping to save the lives of
unborn babies and share Christ with their mothers. We are once again participating in
the Life Centers (formerly known as Central Indiana Crisis Pregnancy Center) Bottles for Babies campaign. If you’d like to participate,
here’s what you should do:
• Pick up your family’s baby bottle today from the display in the lobby.
• Take your bottle home and have fun filling it with coins or cash.
• Return your bottle to the Welcome Center next Sunday, May 18.
The focus of the food pantry at Neighborhood Fellowship is to provide for the
immediate need of those who seek assistance. They would like donations of
single serving sizes of items that can be given to individuals in sack lunches,
including packets of tuna or pasta products in single serving cans, fruit or
pudding cups, granola/breakfast bars, peanut butter cracker packs, etc. Please
drop your donation off in the ZF lobby near the Welcome Center.

What Do I Do With My Life?
The Heartland Fellows is currently
accepting applications for the Fall
2008 class. This is a nine month
academic program designed for recent
college graduates who seek to build
Christ’s kingdom into their vocations
while pursuing God’s calling on their
lives. It provides a forum in which
young people become firmly rooted in
Christ and are trained to integrate
their spiritual lives with all other areas
of life. Each participant builds a framework
for discerning God’s calling and
answering the question, “What do I
do with my life?” The program emphasizes the
importance of understanding the redemptive work of
Christ as the foundation of life, work, and calling. Please
consider young people in your life who would benefit
from a year as a Heartland Fellow and encourage them to
give thought and prayer to being a part of our program.
For more information and to download an application,
please visit the Heartland Fellows website.
