NATIONAL
DAY OF PURITY
2009
PROMOTING PURITY IN MIND AND ACTIONS
Today’s culture and entertainment media encourage youth to become SEXUALLY ACTIVE at a young age and to experiment with  sexual preferences.  When youth stand up for SEXUAL PURITY, they send a message to communities, to legislators and to the media,
We want a better world.”

 
Day of Purity is observed every year on Valentine’s Day.  Day of Purity is a  project of Liberty Counsel 800-671-1776 www.dayofpurity.org  
 

"What's so wrong about wanting

You Are Welcome Here
One of the greatest pleasures in life is the blessing of family and friends.  That’s especially true in a growing church like ours, so we never want to  take anyone we know for granted.  The message of the Gospel in its simplest form is that God loved people so much that He sent His son, Jesus, to die in our place because of our sins.  This brings us into peace with God and opens the avenues for change in our life so we may receive the fullness of the blessings from God.  We at River of Life Church love you also.  We want to get acquainted with you and worship with you.
You are welcome here.

Guess What?
You are who you are from the inside out.  It is OK to emulate someone else as far as their good habits and manners are concerned, but you are a very distinct individual.  If you cannot realize who you are, you can recognize yourself by two particular things.  Remember that you are designed by the challenges in your life and you are developed by the choices you make.  Your life comes out of yourself and the “One” who lives inside of you.    ----Jerry Maston

Gatea Romanian Missions
The Romania mission work is making great inroads into the schools,
homes and government of the Transylvanian region of Romania. 
Pastor Nico Gatea is a native of Romania while his wife, Caprice Scott Gatea, is a native of Ranger, Texas.  They reside with their teen-age daughter, Nicole, in the town of Ocna Mures located in the heart of the Transylvanian region in Romania.  This mission work was birthed in 1990 following the overthrow of the socialistic/communist party of the time.  The Gateas saw a tremendous need among the poorest of the gypsy people.  They began feeding several hundred young children hot soup and/or  bread in shifts and teaching them about Jesus as the children waited for their turn to eat.  The Gateas are currently pastoring four growing churches and conducting Bible studies in a fourth work, as well as heading a large feeding and outreach program for children and caring for an orphanage.  Caprice teaches Religion fulltime in Romania’s public school system.  This in itself is proof of good changes taking place in this post-communist country.  If their schedule sounds busy, that’s because it is. 
Nico and Caprice, and their daughter, Nicole, minister 24/7 to precious people who have lived generation upon generation without hope and in deep poverty, under harsh communist rule. Now, a new generation is growing up in Romania with hope for their future and their nation’s future.
The Gateas give a strong influence and support to pastors in the large
surrounding area.  What this mission team represents will challenge and
inspire all who hear to become more active in each one’s own sphere of
ministry and leadership.
