His word were, “It is easier for a camel to pass through eye of a needle that for one who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” Jesus also told the people, “For human beings it is impossible, but not for God. All things are possi- ble for God. Thus, we all will need God’s help on our journey if we are to inherit eternal life.” GOOD DAY FOR PRAISE- Approximately 100 persons attended an all-congregations service at Bridgeview Community Church on Sunday evening, Oct. 5 with Bridgeview Pastor Charles Bridges presiding. Atten- dees sang several praise and worship songs; then heard a sermon by Bridges. The evening concluded with a pie and cake auction to benefit Living Alterna- tives in Downtown Cave Junction. Bridges said that the organization has been helping numerous women, but that it is exceeding its fundings by $400 per month, and that donations would be gratefully ac- cepted.
