Sad news

We are sorry to inform you that Kevin Slatton has passed away. His visitation is set from 3:00 - 4:00 on Sunday, May 5th with his funeral to follow at 4:00 pm. The church has sent a living plant to the family. Here's the link to his obituary for more information:

Kevin was part of Castle Christian early in our church's life. He returned to preach for us when we needed him. Please know Kevin is no longer suffering in hospice and is now with his Savior. As Christians we find peace and hope in that knowledge.

Important Reminder

We will be meeting at McDonald's funeral home this Sunday. Same time.....different place. We'll return to the VFW next Sunday.

Thanks, all.

News

1.We have no choice but to cancel our normal Maundy Thursday service. We encountered some scheduling conflicts with the VFW.

The Crosswalk will go ahead as planned.

2. Also, congratulations to Mike Foster who has graciously agreed to join the leadership of Castle Christian. Mike has always been dependable and he's full of fresh ideas. Thanks, Mike, for taking on this new responsibility. We all love you.

3. Barbara Chapman is now spending time in room 100 at the Cumming Nursing Center (2775 Castleberry Road) for her rehab.  

Update on Barbara

We understand Barbara suffered a pretty severe break in her arm. Her shoulder is also out of joint. At this point, they're going to keep her in the hospital for a couple of more days and then she'll be released to rehab. We don't know for how long she'll be in rehab.

Please remember Barbara in your prayers. We'll post updates when we can.

Message from Bill

When I left church this morning I had a text from my dad that my Uncle Horace, Mom’s brother, had died around 9:45 this morning. Though expected, it’s never easy. Horace was a visionary. He founded and ran Camp Chatahooche in Roswell for about 30 years. He also founded NOC (Natahala Outdoor Center), one of the largest river outfitters in the world. He was also a seminary graduate from Union Theolohical Seminary in Richmond, VA. These are a few of the things he did. He was a very gentle man with a great sense of humor. We’ll miss Uncle Horace. 

REMINDER

Children, please remember to move your clocks forward tonight. If you don't you will miss all of the service and you'll have to sing by yourself and preach to yourself and call Ben when you're done so he can come and lock up. HAHA
