We will be talking about music that is important or meaningful to each of us...be it rock, church music, country, classical, etc. Your choice! Come be a part of this very special fellowship at 7pm in the youth room. IMPORTANT: Bring lyrics, a CD, a cassette or just the title of the song that is meaningful to you. We will all share and sing together. If you have the name of a song but don’t have the music for it, contact Kevin Christian and he will try and bring it from his extensive collection.

Special announcement: Many of you know that our fundraiser last year benefited Dave Collins, who suffered from leukemia. We raised a great deal of money for his treatment, and he and his wife were very grateful to us for our support. Unfortunately, Dave passed away on January 30th. May he rest in peace and may God watch over his family. Cards and/or letters of support can be sent to: Carol Collins, 8633 Walnut Ridge Way, Sacramento, CA 95828.
