for the choir to earn money to buy a set of bells, and it
gives you a nice treat on your day out at the sale.

Brian Young, a nationally known speaker and author will
be sharing at Calvary Christian Church located at 10100
Cedar Island Rd, Bellevue, NE from 2:00-4:00, on May 19th.
Mr. Young has debated numerous professors at secular universities
challenging the traditional views of evolutionary origins.
He will give answers to common questions such as:
"Where did Cain get his wife?"
"Are dinosaurs in the Bible?"
"How could people live 900 years before the Flood?"
"How old is the earth and what about the dating methods?"
"What caused the ice-age?"
"Can a Christian believe in evolution without contradicting
the Bible?"
"What does the fossil evidence tell us about origins?"
All these and many more issues will be addressed as well
as time to ask questions on any topic you desire. All ages
are welcome!
**** There is NO fee for attending, but please consider
contributing a donation to cover Mr. Youngs time and expenses.
