Verse
The Apostles Persecuted
Acts 5:17-21 --- Then the high priest and all his associates, who were members of the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy. They arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail. But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail and brought them out. “Go, stand in the temple courts,” he said, “and tell the people all about this new life.” At daybreak they entered the temple courts, as they had been told, and began to teach the people. (NIV)
President's Report
Hello all,
As we start this month off, I remind you that hurricane season is here again, so we all need to prepare a "togo" kit. If you already have one that's great. Remember to check it regularly and replace things as needed. If not then they are simple to prepare. Batteries, medical supplies and other things need to be included. Think of things you will need if you are without power for a week. Water, dry foods, soap, some other things you may want. Tornadoes are also on the list of things to watch for, the weather can change and support one at any time. If you want to discuss more on the Togo kits then join us on the first Saturday of the month at the Western Sizzlin around 11am. Join in the fellowship of Ham radio, our doors are always open.

Next MARC Business Meeting
The next business meeting will be held at the Western Sizzlin Restaurant located on North Frontage Road on Saturday, May 1st beginning at 11 A.M. Come join us for some awesome sweet tea, lunch, and fellowship.
We will meet in the back room, so we can space ourselves at least six feet apart. Hope you can join us!
Start a Neighborhood Watch Group
From WB5AKR
I have started a neighborhood watch group using the FRS (Family Radio Service) radios.The group now has 18 members using 13 FRS radios. I encourage all hams to get involved and organize a watch group on your street or in your community.
During the last month the radio net was activated for two severe weather events and two suspicious vehicles which were reported to sheriff.
If I can be of any help to you in establishing your watch group contact wb5akr@comcast.net or 601-934-1460

Quote of the Month
From: First Hour Devotional
"If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God..."(1 Peter 4:11, NKJV) When God wants to speak to people on earth, do you know how He does it? Most often, He speaks through His people. He uses our voice to bring life, healing and hope to others. When you reach out to someone, when you're kind and speak encouragement, God's voice is blended with your voice.
Your words become His words. The natural takes on a supernatural. That's why you can say something ordinary, something simple like "You look beautiful" or "You can make it," and it's life changing to the other person. To you it's nothing, but when God takes your natural and puts His super with it, it can impact that person's destiny. Today, remember, you are God's voice in the earth. When you speak to others, declare what God would say about them. Let your words be used to bring life, hope and blessing. Speak as the oracles of God and be His mouthpiece everywhere you go.
Have a BLESSED month!
