Welcome to COGWA
Following the example of Jesus and the New Testament Church, our congregation worships on Saturday and observes the annual Holy Days which are recorded in Leviticus 23. It is by observing these days that we more fully appreciate God’s plan of salvation for mankind and we prepare ourselves for service in the soon-coming Kingdom of God. If you would like to know more about us, I invite you to review our Fundamental Beliefs.

Announcements
Presidents’ Day Family Weekend - Branson, MO - February 16-19. A separate email was sent with details.

Challenger Camp 2024 - We are excited to announce that Challenger Camp is back! The current plan is to choose a new location each year to create challenging experiences and build lasting bonds. For this year’s camp, we are working on several activities centered around a base camp in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, running from June 23-30. If you are between the ages of 18 and mid-30s and would like to get some dirt on your boots, please mark your calendars. Further information, including the date for accepting applications, will be announced soon.
FI Summer Sessions. Foundation Institute, Center for Biblical Education, is pleased to announce that this summer we will again hold two sessions of Continuing Education seminars at the headquarters office in McKinney, Texas. Both sessions will be held in the Foundation Institute classroom, which has a capacity for 36 students.
The first session will be July 15 to 19, and the second session will be July 22 to 26. Classes will be taught by Foundation Institute instructors David Johnson and Ralph Levy, as well as other ministers from the headquarters office. Approximately 29 hours of Bible instruction will be taught. Details about class offerings will be announced at a later date. Class offerings will be similar for both sessions, but they may not be identical. Because of space limitations, students may be accepted for only one of the two seminars, not for both.
The tuition cost is $100 per person, or $150 for a married couple. The fee will cover administrative costs and a light lunch each day.
Registration will open at 10 a.m. Central time (Texas time) on Sunday, Feb. 18, 2024, and will remain open until 10 a.m. Central time on Monday, Feb. 26. During this time you may sign up by going to the Foundation Institute website (foundationinstitute.org), selecting “Continuing Education” and clicking on the “Register Now” button.
This year we will use a similar system to what we used last year (2023) for accepting participants. All are welcome to apply, but priority will be given to those who have not attended a seminar since 2018. Last year all applicants were accepted, and it is our hope that this year we will again be able to accommodate all of those wishing to attend. But if it is necessary, this priority system will eliminate the first-come-first-served system and will prioritize those who have not attended a seminar since 2018.
Those accepted will receive a confirmation email and further details about the program. Information about local housing will also be sent to those accepted for one of the seminars. Ralph Levy and David Johnson
FOI Scholarship Fundraiser. Foundation Outreach International sponsors many projects, including English-language skills classes, dental projects, teen camps in Africa, and the Hilltop Outreach Program.
The most significant portion of FOI’s budget is a scholarship program that currently supports about 77 students in Africa, helping them gain the essential skills they need. In Africa, school is not always provided, and parents must find the funds to support their children’s education. The average amount per young person is $350-$500 annually. These educational opportunities can change the lives of young people and their families.
COGWA congregations will be collecting funds over the next several weeks for the FOI scholarship program. You may contribute by sending a check made out to Foundation Outreach International to P.O. Box 2152, Allen, TX 75013 or by sending funds via PayPal or Venmo.
Thank you in advance for your support!
