For the past four years I have been co-captain

continue to thrive and I am asking anyone, individually
or several as a group to take over the FBC Relay
team. Relay is dear to my heart and we have so
many people in our church who have or have had
cancer, or who have been touched by this disease.
Please pray about this team, and if anyone will
be willing to take this position, please call
me, Carolyn Jones by or before February 15, 2010.
