Abba’s House has made a substantial donation to Operation Compassion to help with disaster relief efforts following yesterday’s deadly tornados. “Operation Compassion already has teams on the ground in Ringgold, Trenton, Tuscaloosa, Chattanooga and Cleveland to bring help and relief goods to those who were hardest hit,” commented Pastor Ron Phillips. “By donating, we have an immediate impact.” All of the assets Operation Compassion has at its disposal will be brought to bear on this disaster, including 4 shower trailers, 3 mobile cooking units capable of cooking 3,000 meals each day and dry vans capable of moving product. Abba’s House has volunteers mobilizing to help their fellow church members, from cutting trees to providing housing and food. We pray for those who have suffered loss.

Company D, the K-5th grade choir at Abba's House, will present the musical "Happily Forever After" on Sunday morning at 10:30am. Knights! Castles! Princesses! Dragons! Join Princess Pride, Sir Brags-a-lot, and their curious band on an amazing trek in a very faraway land.

Due to more impending storms this afternoon and evening, all evening services and activities are cancelled. The Dinner Table, 6:33, Awaken, Kids Catalyst, rehearsals, etc, will all resume next Wednesday. The church offices will close at noon today. We'll see you on Sunday!

Pastor Ron is preaching a new series on "The Cross" all month leading up to Easter. While the cross of Christ is a brutal, bloody topic, it is important for us to understand the meaning and depth of love and forgiven that was given to us through the Cross. Plan to join us each Sunday for "The Cross."

On Sunday, April 10, Kelle Chapin, wife of slain officer Tim Chapin, made a statement of thanks to the church and community for the love and support shown to her family during this difficult time.

A walking funeral procession honoring slain Chattanooga Police Sgt. Tim Chapin will proceed from Abba’s House to Hamilton Memorial Gardens on Highway 153. Highway 153 will be closed to all traffic not in the procession from 11 a.m. until all services are complete. Please avoid the area if at all possible, police said.

Visitation will be on Wednesday, April 6 from 12-3 p.m. and 5-8 p.m. in the Abba’s House main auditorium. A memorial service will be held on Thursday, April 7 at 1 p.m., also in the AH main auditorium.

Beginning next Wednesday, April 13. you can join your AH family at The Dinner Table, from 4:30-6:00 pm each Wednesday night in the Faith Building. It's a great time to relax, fellowship and refuel from a busy day. It’s also a time to refocus and prepare for worship.
