Welcome to Atonement!
Haiti Relief

haiti.jpgPraise God for the generous giving of His people toward the tremendous need in Haiti!  A special offering was received at Atonement on Sunday, January 24, and close to $4,000 was given!  How exciting to be participate in this way of bringing relief!  We directed the offering through World Concern, headquartered here in Seattle.  Here is a portion of an e-mail received from World Concern:

"World Concern, a ministry of CRISTA Ministries here in Seattle, touches the lives of desperate people in 24 countries, including Haiti. We have been working in Haiti for more than 30 years. World Concern has more than 100 staff in the country and the Haiti headquarters is at the epicenter of Port Au Prince. When the earthquake struck, buildings were “pancaking” by our office but our headquarters was miraculously spared - along with the staff in the office. We now have a chance to shine the light of Jesus into the most desperate of situations. Our staff is already involved in the recovery effort. We do have about 30 staff that are still unaccounted for, so the loss and devastation is very real to us.
As you can imagine, we are focusing on immediate, critical needs: rescuing those who are trapped, providing clean water, shelter, blankets and food. It is to that end that I come humbly to you and ask for your help.
World Concern is contacting churches to ask if they would take a special offering this Sunday or next, for the relief efforts. We are clothing the naked, caring for the widow and orphan, giving that cup of water in Jesus’ name… but we can’t do it alone. The need is overwhelming. We are on the ground positioned, by God I believe, to be of great help. Can you join us by helping? Would your church be willing to take a special offering for our relief efforts?"

God bless each one for their generousity and continue to guide, strengthen and provide for the relief efforts!
Pastor Rick

Thank You, Mac McElrath

The 20th Anniversary of the Panama Invasion was marked this past December.  Mac McElrath, who has been a part of Atonement in the past and lives here in Marysville was one of the Rangers that jumped in with the operation that night.  A parachute malfunction, however, left Mac paralyzed from that day on.  He recently re-visited Panama with some other Ranger buddies as they marked the 20th anniversary of that mission.  They were accompanied by a film team.  Take a moment to watch this video.

AGAPE CELLS – A network for prayer and caring
The mention of ‘Agape Cells’ may sound familiar to many of you.  It is an arrangement of the congregation in caring units that we initiated a few years ago but allowed to slip by the wayside.  It is time to reorganize with renewed vigor.
 
 
We noted when Agape Cells were begun that the military assigns each soldier a ‘combat buddy.’  The need is recognized for each soldier to have someone who is watching out for him, ready to give a word of encouragement, a warning extra protection, or whatever else the situation requires.  What is true in the physical realm is also true in the spiritual!  Because we as Christians are
