℗The World Health Organization…estimates that 2 billion (B) people will contract some type of H1N1/Swine Flu this year.
℗The Center for Disease Control here in the US estimates that there could be as many as 90,000 deaths this fall…more than double the 30-40,000 people who die each year from regular flu related illnesses.
The greatest defense against the disease is basic common sense hygiene i.e. wash your hands, avoid others who are sick, maintain good physical condition!

℗The Very Practical Expression of Healthiness
℗1.How are we dealing with the needs of others?
Restore him in a spirit of gentleness...bearing one another’s burdens
Remember Grace is a Jesus dying on the cross for your sin!

How you treat others is the genuine expression of your faith.

own work”

Based upon what you are sowing into the lives of those around you what can you expect to reap in the crisis of your life?
