¨  Butler Street’s first Financial Peace University Class will graduate on Sunday August 10 during the 10:00 A.M. Worship Service. The culmination of this thirteen week course designed to give people insight as to how to learn the principles of financial management to include spending, saving and giving has been a great experience for those persons who have completed the course. Through the prescribed Dave Ramsey course content on getting out of debt and staying out of debt, individuals have gained a new approach to money and its value and benefit and are on their way to financial peace. Registration is taking place from now through the end of August for persons who are interested in being a part of the next class which will begin in late September. Enrollment information will be available beginning next Sunday.

¨ All TV programs will convert from an analog signal to a digital signal effective February 17, 2009.  This means that if you have an older TV set (more than 3-4 years old) it likely has analog signaling. If your TV has analog signaling it will no longer be able to pick up a signal and thus no longer have TV programming broadcast. You have the option of buying a new TV or of purchasing a TV Converter Box. The TV sets will not work without a converter box or cable or satellite. If you subscribe to cable TV or satellite TV you will be able to get the digital signals. However, if you do not have cable or satellite you will need the converter box. The FCC is offering a TV Converter Box Coupon Program toward the purchase of a converter box.  The converter boxes cost around $50.00 each and the coupon is good for $40.00 thus reducing out of pocket costs to around $10.00.

For more information please visit the FCC Web site at http://www.dtv.gov/and click on consumer corner and then click on converter box coupon program. Or you may call 888-225-5322 to get your coupon for the converter box.  Pastor Alford

 


 

 

Bells To Remember

Early Detection Saves Lives

Schedule Your Breast Cancer Screening Today!

 

If you are a woman over the age of 40, we strongly encourage you to have an annual mammogram.  A mammogram is an X-ray of the breast that can detect abnormalities that are too small to be detected by a regular breast self-exam.

 

There is a steady decline in the number of people who die each year from breast cancer.  This decline can be directly attributed to the fact that more women are getting mammograms which leads to early detection.

 

What are the risk factor? 

While the exact cause of breast cancer is unknown, there are some risk factors that have been identified.

  • Gender

  • Age

  • Genetics
