Thank you for your contributions toward this Sunday's viewing at the fellowship hall. Your generosity with side dishes and desserts meant we had plenty to share with the firehouse for the bereavement dinner. The firehouse crew, too, passes along its appreciation.
The community showed a phenomenal outpouring of love for the Pittinger family. Mourners began arriving at 2 p.m. and hit a peak at about 7 p.m., with 250 people in the room at any time and a line out the door and down the hallway. The final tally approached 500 visitors.
We appreciate all who gave freely of their time and energy. Our loving prayers remain with Debbie, Eric and Angela, Big Mike, Darla Jean and the extended family.

Introducing our Evangelist
Rev. Steve Freeman!
“I was born and raised in Wilmington, N.C. I was born with cerebral palsy and many doctors in Wilmington said I would probably never walk. Thankfully, the Lord had better plans for my life. At the age of nine, I accepted Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior. I graduated from the University of North Carolina with a B/A in Music in 1990. On December 18, 1993, I received my Master of Divinity degree from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. Since that time, I have been in full-time evangelism, preaching God’s Word in revivals or conferences, sharing God’s love through the music that he has given me, and sharing my testimony of how God’s grace has made something special out of me.”
My wife Lisa and I were married in 1994, and we had our first child in November 1999, a beautiful baby girl named Berkeley. In August 2003 we had our second child, a boy named Kevin. This is our full-time vocation, and Lisa is such an asset to the ministry. She and our kids travel with me when possible and I am grateful that she works so hard to help me do what I do best.”

With deepest sorrow.........
With deep sorrow, I share the sad news that Mike Pittinger passed away last night. The congregation has embraced the family with their prayers.
The viewing will be held at Charles Town Baptist on Sunday, March 28 from 2-9 pm, with the family present 6-9 pm. At 5 pm, beverages and light foods will be offered in the Fellowship Hall.
The funeral will be held at church on Monday, March 29 at 11 am, followed by the internment at Pleasant View Cemetery. The Citizens Fire Co., of which Mike was a member since age 18, will host the bereavement dinner at 245 Citizens Way in Charles Town.
If you are able, please bring a dessert or a tray of fruit or cheese for Sunday's gathering. We will be accepting food Sunday from 8 am-12 pm in the hall, and again from 3-5 pm. We've contacted the Citizens Fire Co. and asked whether it would also need donations. We'll let you know as soon as learn more.
If you have any questions, please call Jill Lauterborn at 304-724-7473.
Thank you.
