The Word of Life Family Church

is one of nearly 1,000 churches in the United States affiliated with the

Rhema Bible College in Tulsa, Okla.

The Fayetteville church has

grown in five years from three families to a membership of 250 worshipers.

Members are looking forward

to this summer when about 25 to 30 of the church's youths will attend

a camp in Tennessee and will include teens from 13 to 19 years old. They

will be participating for a week in a preaching and teaching atmosphere.

The adults are eagerly looking

forward to a new ministry within the church; a television studio has been

created and taping of a half-hour program began this past week. They expect

to be "on the air" by July 1. The format will generally be a

sit-down teaching one with various church members participating.

On a regular basis, teens meet

each Thursday at 7 p.m., and "Kids Zone" is available for children

both Sunday at 10 a.m. and Wednesday at 7 p.m.

The men's group and the women's

group enjoy retreats several times a year.

The pastor, the Rev. Dayne

Massey, has served the church since its inception. He attended both Booth

Middle School and McIntosh High School for two years, before his family

moved to Selma.

"Look out for our TV program,"

he said, "on TV 57."

Services are each Sunday at

10 a.m. and Wednesday at 7 p.m.

The church is at 570 W. Lanier

Ave., Ste. 101, Fayetteville, and can be reached at 770-716-0034. The
