REMINDER: Samaritan Inn Fundraiser through Food World Stores

The 2008 Regions Charity Classic, presented by Bruno’s, has given local Bruno’s and Food World stores the opportunity to select a community charity as benefactor of the in-store Golf Ball Promotion. For a seven-week period, April 2 – May 18, shoppers will have the opportunity to donate to Samaritan Inn Ministry. Store locations supporting Samaritan Inn Ministry include: Food World 2020 East South Blvd., Montgomery Food World 4896 U.S. Hwy. 231, Wetumpka Food World 1860 East Main St., Prattville Food World 3543 Alabama Hwy.14, Millbrook PLEASE ADD TO YOUR BULLETINS/NEWSLETTERS/WEBSITES You will have the opportunity to donate at checkout. A paper golf ball imprinted with “Samaritan Inn Ministry” will be scanned, and your donation will be added to your bill. This year, one store per Bruno’s district (there are five) raising the most money will be matched up to $5,000 by the Regions Charity Foundation. We will receive 100 percent of the funds raised in the stores that have designated Samaritan Inn Ministry as their charity of choice. The 2007 Regions Charity Classic, presented by Bruno’s, donated more than $688,000 to charitable organizations in Alabama. Over its 16-year history, the tournament has donated almost $10 million to Alabama charities. With your help, local neighbors and friends will become more aware of giving back to our community.

Martin Luther King...We Remember

A Hero for All People...A Fellow Traveler for those who are Believers!



Today marks the 40th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr's assasination. Someone who took a stand for what was right.

No he was not perfect...he was very human but he stood up when many fellow Christians did not...

No he wasn't always right....he made mistakes like all of us but he said what he thought the Lord was telling him to say. He stood for those who did not have a voice.

He was my hero. His life gives me courage to take a stand when I see an injustice.
He was someone who I admired for taking a stand for the poor and oppressed.




Whether you agree with all that he said or did...he remained as true as any human can to the call out of Isaiah 58:

" I'll tell what it really means to worship the Lord. Remove the chains of prisoners who are chained unjustly. Free those who are abused. Share your food with everyone who is hungry. Share your home with the poor and homeless. Give clothes to those in need. Don't turn away your relatives. Then, your light will shine...and you will quickly be healed.

(Contemporary English Version)





Be at peace with one another......
