THURSDAY SERVICE SPECIAL VIDEO PRESENTATION – You won’t want to miss the video interview of Frank Drown on Thursday, June 25th. Frank Drown (born ca. 1920) is an American author and missionary. Frank led the ground search party for 5 missionaries (Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Ed McCully, Peter Fleming, and Roger Youderian) who were part of Operation Auca, an attempt to make contact with and evangelize the Huaorani people of the rainforest of Ecuador. The Huaorani were an isolated tribe known for their violence against both their own people and outsiders who entered their territory. These missionaries began making regular flights over Huaorani settlements in Sept. 1955 dropping gifts. In Jan. 1956 they were attacked and speared by a group of Huaorani warriors. The news of their deaths was broadcast around the world, and Life magazine covered the event with a photo essay. Come to this Thursday’s service at 7:00 p.m. to learn more of this incredible story and how the Huaorani (including some of those involved in the killing) eventually were led to Christianity.

2. “To be Disappointed with (myself) means that I Believed in (myself)”.
3. “To be Discouraged is Unbelief”.
4. “To be Proud – is to be Blind”.
5. “The lack of Divine Blessing comes from Unbelief, not a failure of Devotion”.
