REAL (Redeemed-Equipped-Accepted- Loved) Connections Women’s Ministry Founder Amy Allen introduces us to retired Air Force Officers Richelle Wright and Mary Arnholt. They will be teaching “Warrior Training” Saturday, October 16, 2021, 10 am-noon at Eastern Hills Baptist Church (masks mandatory), 3100 Morris Street NE, Albuquerque, NM 87111 https://www.getrealwithgod.com/.
The REAL Connections website says, “Instead of trying to create a world without pain, learn how to face problems with strength and dignity and walk free from condemnation. Don’t pretend them away, mask them, hide them or ignore them, but face your problems head-on with Christ. The only way OUT is THROUGH, and the only way THROUGH is JESUS. (Isaiah 61:1-3). REAL speakers, who have experienced God’s redemption and restoration, will present REAL problems and solutions at this conference.
We want to be REAL with you so that you can be REAL with God and others. We want to help you find healing in Christ.”

Holly Slade, Founder of Feed New Mexico Kids, said, “Our goal is to get children fed!” The ministry of Feed New Mexico Kids is hosting the “FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN FEED NEW MEXICO KIDS“ event to educate the faith community and business owners to help fight childhood hunger in New Mexico. The event is FREE!
Food Insecurity is not knowing where your next meal is coming from. Holly said, “We as a community can not stick our heads in the sand any longer and think that our crime rates, our gangs, and all of that are disassociated from hunger.”
Feed New Mexico Kids will train your Church or volunteer group to purchase food, pack, and distribute “snack packs” to help children have food for the weekends where you live! The awareness event is your opportunity to FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN FEED NEW MEXICO KIDS: Friday, October 22, 7-9 pm, Calvary Church Westside, 6051 Winterhaven Rd. NW, Albuquerque, NM.

Brian Cochran is a Certified Kingdom Advisor and the President of John Moore Associates. Working with investors to approach their investments from a Biblical viewpoint is his way of serving people, especially when there is some volatility in the investment markets. He said, “Sometimes people need that calming presence because of turmoil in their lives. God wants us to live without fear. Finances often create fear and uncertainty in people’s lives. People are not generous when they are fearful. Generosity and fear do not coexist. If we can remove that fear, it helps people be more content, more at peace, and more generous.”
1 John 4:18-19: Such love has no fear because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, which shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. 19 We love each other because he loved us first. NLT
