The focus for this hour of worship was about reaching the world for Christ. To proclaim the gospel for all to hear, we must use all the languages
so that all might hear and know the Good News of the gospel. Various individuals were asked to read and/or recite the Bible verse John 3:16 in
different languages:
In English, Charlotte Guerin... in Greek, Pastor Galen... in Dutch, Pastor Roy...
in Japanese, Steve Niino... in Spanish, Mario Arteaga... in Chinese, Lynn Chen...
in Korean, Diane Jin... in Sign Language, Cathy Greenwalt... ...then signing the song "I Can Only Imagine."
Steve Niino (the RezRev) speaking on the ministry on the Pala Indian Reservation.

The youth groups from two churches (The Vision Plus Church of Riverside and Northwinds Church of Fontana) gathered together for a wonderful
night of music, games and pizza.
SUNDAY, APRIL 1 - "BRING YOUR BIBLE AND YOUR TITHE" SUNDAY
We had a major focus on the Word of God and its importance in our lives. Printed Bibles with the church name imprint were given out to those who had a need
for a Bible.
In addition, we focused on the joy of giving and the importance of the tithe. The giving of tithes and offerings is a wonderful demonstration of our love for the Lord
and the ministry to build His Kingdom. It was a blessing to see God move in lives, as many proved their desire to be good stewards of that which God has
blessed them with.
