SPECIAL TO THE
CHRONICLE

Cherry St., and its pastor,
the Rev. Curtis Friday, took
over the Wake Mart gas
station on the corner of
Cherry Street and Polo
Road for a few hours to
give away $5,000 in free

Members of the church
were stationed at every
pump as cars rolled in from
the Cherry Street entrance.
Each car received $20 in

Vitara Crossover.
She is a faithful single"
mother in our congregation

when her car broke down
last year.
Despite her lack^ of
transportation she still
made it her mission to
come to the church during
the week for janitorial serv
ices as well as attend all
services.
"In light of Easter, and
the representation that
Jesus gave His life for us,
The Love Church took the
time to give back to the
community," the church
said in a statement.

continued on Saturday,
^when the church's Youth
Ministry hosted an Easter
Eggstravaganza at Oak
Summit Park.
Many came out to the
Easter egg hunt, fellowship
and the food.

that we should strive to be
like God and the word says
'For God so loved the
world that He gave
The Love Church is deter
mined to be a church
known for loving and giv
ing to our community to
bring Matthew 25 Alive!"
the church said.
