LAST SUNDAY'S DECISIONS

Another one of our teens made her life-changing commitment to Christ during the Get-a-Way weekend at OCC recently.  Veronica VanderMolen, daughter of Mark and Jessica VanderMolen, was baptized by Jennifer Dunbar on Sept. 25.  Watch for more info on her and the family on the BLOG soon.




ALSO, we rejoiced to have John and Rhonda Adams transfer their membership to the Bella Vista Christian family that same morning.  


Arkansas can truly be called home for the Adams. John is a third generation family raised here and Rhonda moved to NWA when she was young.  John was in the Army branch of the military for 15 years. While he was serving, Rhonda was also employed with the government. At the present, John is IT Director of Washington County. Rhonda is enjoying being a housewife and taking care of the home.  They have three children and 11 grandchildren all living in Bentonville and Rogers.

The Adams are very musical and were very active in the Contemporary Praise Band at Peace Lutheran Church when Amy Talbert was the Director. John plays electric, acoustic and bass guitar. Rhonda also plays the bass. They enjoy gardening, hiking, boating, going to concerts, and time with family.

Church has been an important part of their lives, as John served on the church council and the music ministry.  Rhonda has been on the Board of Finance, volunteered with the food pantry, organized the World Day of Prayer, helped in the church office, and taught in VBS.  They both served on the greeting team in former churches.

Rhonda is very interested in working in a ministry to reach out and help young women who have struggled in areas of their lives, especially with substance abuse.        
 
WHAT AN GREAT WAY TO END SEPTEMBER!!
