By Morten Juberg RESTORE (Reaching Seattle for Eter- nity) has gone into a second phase of its ministry, the opening of the Five Loaves Deli and Bakery on Madison Street. Last year Jim Brackett, conference Health Director and RESTORE leader, recruited 10 college-age youth as shock troops for a door- to-door intensive campaign designed to ar- range Bible studies. The pilot project was based at the Volunteer Park Church.

Million Dollar Gift For Less Than $150 Can a gift that cost only $150 be worth a million, without it sitting in some mutual fund for a couple of decades? This question may be a difficult one to answer, especially since the majority of society has endured a capital loss in the chaos of the Christmas season. Millions of dollars are spent during the 28-day dash before Christmas, in a quest to find that perfect gift, the gift that could last forever. The question to ask yourself is, how many of the gifts, purchased for your children, will end up in the toy box in the basement either broken or forgot- ten? How long will those gifts make a dif- ference in each child's life? It is impossible to find a material gift that is perfect, as much as we would like New Members Join Pasco Church to. The only perfect gift that will last for- ever is Christ's Love. But does Christ come In the picture above, six students of Tri-City Junior Academy were baptized recently and became in a box or package? Can you gift wrap members of the Pasco Riverview Church. The teachers had charge of the church service. In the back row, from the left, are Fred Quaile, principal, LeAnn Huether, Cloreese Wilkenson and Sean Day. In Christianity? The answer is, Yes, you can! the front row are Mary Day, Isis and Cisco Wilkenson and Pastor Don Kindig who had the baptism. To wrap this gift would take 24,829,200 sq. ft. of wrapping paper, which would total 496,584 rolls of wrapping paper at a cost of $1,087,518.90. The gift inside would have a big shiny label with bold red print which would read, MIVODEN. When I look back at the one gift I received that stands out from the rest, had the biggest impact, that never became old and boring, and made a difference in my life, it was the four weeks of camp my grandparents gave me. If you want a gift that will help your child be the best he/she can be, give the gift that will make the difference. A dif- ference that will cost you only $127 a week, an investment of $1.78 into each year of your child's life. It's never too late to give the perfect gift.
