About Town

By Doris Lessenden

“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another”.  Proverbs 27:17   The Lord allows our rough edges to be smoothed over through the sandpaper of life.

We welcome Pastor Mark and Deb Imel to Eads and their pastorate at the First Christian Church.  They moved here last week from northern Kansas.  Sunday afternoon they led the chapel service at the Weisbrod ECU and what delightful people they are with great singing voices too!
