Being at church while a gunman walks in and shoots your minister during the service, is difficult for adults to deal with, but for children it is shattering.  204 little angel teddy bears are on the way to comfort these youngsters when they return to church on Sunday, March 15th.

Rev. Fred Winters sermon about "Being Happy in Difficult Times" is prophetic…but hard to apply.  If we can help, we must.  Our prayers are with all the parishioners and family. The shooting occured at the First Baptist Church in Maryville, Ill., a St. Louis suburb.

We would like to thank First and Main, Inc. for their speedy response and thoughtful assistance.
