ABF Baby Announcement 4-30-09

All,

 I just learned that Eric and Cindy Martinson had their baby on Monday.  Mother and baby are happy and healthy. An all natural delivery, after 10 days past the due date.  I know that it is a girl, I do not remember her name. I will get the details tomorrow and let you know.

 I do know Eric and Cindy have been away for few months, but they have been a part of our ABF for a long time.  They have been there for many of our members as well helping with mowing, etc.  Please let them know that we are thinking and praying for them and that they are missed.

 Peace and Blessings!

 Raymond

True Greatness

ABF Family,

What a wonderful Easter! I hope everyone enjoyed time with family to celebrate His resurection! Lets always keep in our minds the suffering Jesus endured for our sakes. May we sacrifice our needs to serve others every day and celebrate his overcoming the grave to allow us access to God.

I cant wait to see everyone this Saturday. Have a blessed week.

Brian
