Life & Justice Campaign. This campaign supports local
organizations dedicated to defending the dignity of the person
and the sanctity of human life. Join the campaign to share our
gifts! To learn more, visit www.lifeandjusticekcsj.org.
Check out the CDs on the Lighthouse table in the west
vestibule. One CD featured is “Fan or Follower?” In this
talk, Jeff Cavins shows how he has come to see that Jesus
wants us to surrender every bit of our own comfort to follow
Him. There are many fans of Jesus in this world, but we are
called to be his disciples. CDs are only $3 each.
