Dear Friends of
Foundations In Genesis of Idaho  (FIGI),

Attached (above) is a schedule for upcoming FIGI monthly meetings. I've
also pasted the same information below in case your email won't retrieve
attachments.  As you can see the schedule is nearly complete for 2001.  We
will try to keep the meetings on the last Thursday of each month, however
some exceptions will occur.  For instance the David Bergman meetings are
scheduled for Wednesday, April 18th in Twin Falls, and Thursday, April 19th
in Boise. The Ed Bulkley meeting will probably be an all day workshop (4-6
hrs.)on Saturday June 9th.

We would like your suggestions for future speakers, videos or topics from
all members of FIGI. Please pray about this and email me with any of your
ideas.

Also, the FIGI LEADERSHIP group is open to ALL members.  We would like to
have AT LEAST 20 leaders.  We currently have 11 leaders.  The only
requirement to be a leader is commitment to the Lord and a willingness to
study.  Let me (Bob Compton) know if you are interested - please send me
your name, phone number and email address.  Our next FIGI Leader's meeting
will be:

Thursday, February 1st
7:00 PM
Church of God of Prophecy, 8366 Northview, Boise.

Glory to Him Alone,

BOB
