Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I am writing with a very heavy heart.  Debra Ting's daughter Esther  
died this week.  Many of you may remember her when she was in our  
youth group.  We all had such fun together at our various events and  
I miss her very much.  Her funeral will be on Monday April 20 at  
12:30 at the Church.  Her family is setting up a foundation in her name.

You've probably already heard about the Christ Church Bible  
Challenge.  We're trying to get as many of us as possible to read an  
entire book of the Bible before Pentecost Sunday (May 31).  Starting  
on April 26 we'll be providing head phones and recorded versions of  
the Bible.  I'll also be having office hours from 2-4 p.m. on  
Tuesdays (please come by and visit even if you don't plan to talk  
about the Bible).

Finally, I wanted to let you know that beginning in May the Tuesday  
Bible Study will be at noon (instead of 11:00 a.m.).  We're trying to  
make it more accessible for folks who might be able to get away at  
lunch time.

Please keep dear Esther and her parents in your prayers tonight.  She  
was a very sweet person and we lost her far too soon...

Love,

Malcolm
