Park Lake Church £
has Flood of activity
By Patty Montagno
Park Lake Church is a very
active church with many pro-
grams.
Their 25,000 sq. ft addition that
was built in 2001 holds a sanctu-
ary that also serves as a gym and
fellowship hall, offices, nurseries,
a bookstore, kitchen, four fellow-
ship rooms, four bathrooms, two
lobby areas and a beautiful 3,000
sq. ft youth center.
Youth Pastor Cory Mullins will
gladly show off the new center to
anyone who stops by.
His successful youth program
allows the church to interact with
its youth so that they feel loved
and safe while strengthening their
1'th.
The name of the program for
children ages 12-18 is Flood.
"Floods are powerful and life
changing as they rush and rage,
cause damage and bring about
change and that's true of this
Flood as well," Mullins said. "This
Flood gains its power from the
Almighty God and seeks to change
lives within its path.
"Flood's purpose is to shower
non-believing youth with the love
of Jesus Christ, to submerge them
in meaningful relationships with
other Christians, to saturate them
in the word of the living God, to
swamp them with opportunities to
serve others, and to soak them in
respect and honor for God."
The youth center is broken up
into four rooms; the Zone, Flood
Cafe, Flood Lounge and the Main
Event.
The Zone or game room is
equipped with XBOXs and PS2'. It
features a pool tiible, a foosball
table and two televisions with
satellite capabilities as well as
comfortable skateboard benches to
sit on.
The Flood Cafe is somewhat
designed after a Barnes & Noble-
type coffee house minus the
books. It is equipped with a snack
shop, bar stool seating, and multi-
ple televisions on every wall with
satellite capabilities.
Periodically at Flood Cafe there
will he a karaoke night, game
watching party, as well as acoustic
praise and worship events per-
formed by local musicians. Flood
Cafe is open weekly.
The Flood Lounge (the young
ladies room) is a welcoming
lounge area, with a distinct femi-
nine flair, and features comfy
couches, bean bags, contemporary
chairs, and a big screen television.
The Main Event is a worship
center equipped with a state of the
art stage and lighting accompanied
by eye popping metal grid rope
lighting displays and two 60 inch
televisions where THE FLOOD,
the teen led band performs weekly.
The Main Event is the central
location where teens are showered,
submerged, saturated, swamped
and soaked with the preaching and
teaching of God's Holy Word, the
Bible.
Mullins received his religious
training at Arlington Baptist
College.
"There is no greater joy than
seeing a young person accept
Christ as their Savior and then fol-
low His plan for their life,"
Mullins said. "I feel as if I have
the most important job in the
entire world. I have the challenge
and the privilege before me of

church.
shaping and molding today's and
tomorrow's leaders and families.
What a awesome responsibility!"
Mullins said he owes a great
thanks to the other church mem-
bers who helped put (he center
together.
"Miranda Mullins and Kim
Cummings did an amazing job
with the Young Ladies Room," he
said
"Tony Cummings, Steve
Hanson, Norm Fitzgerald, Gene
Flowers, Bruce Wait. Dan
Caballero, Mike and Cheryl
Walker, Mike Kurt/ and Danny
Thompson were the other individ-
uals who helped make our won-
derful youth center a reality."
Cory said they average between
50 to 60 ynuth'm attendance for
Mullins in The Flood Cafe at the
their events.
He feels the center and youth
program provide an excellent
atmosphere for building relation-
ships.
"Park Lake Church rents oul the
Flood Facilities for birthday par-
ties, team parties, etc and is open
to all the community," he said.
"You don't have to be a church
member to rent and use the Flood
facilities."
The church is planning a
Disciple Now event tentatively
scheduled for April.
There will be a Youth Summer
Camp starting in June as well as a
Missions Trip to Mexico and other
activities.

TUMORS AND CYSTS
O: What's the difference
between a cyst and a tumor?
A: An oral tumor is an abnor-
Ijiial growth of soft tissue or
bone. An oral tumor can be
malignant, meaning cancerous, or
benign. A cyst is a hollow sac or
pouch that holds fluid, semifluid
or a solid substance. A cyst can
form in soft tissue or bone. Most
cysts arc benign although it's pos-
sible for a cyst to become malig-
nant. During the first trimester of
pregnancy, a woman may develop
benign growths between teeth that
are called pregnancy tumors.
They are reddish masses that
appear and grow quickly. They
may last throughout the pregnan-
cy and may or may not disappear
alter the birth of the child.
Another sort of benign tumor that
can develop in the mouth is called
an oral tori. This is a growth of
bone that occurs in the upper or
lower jaw. Generally no treatment
is needed unless the tumor
becomes irritated and interferes
with eating or wearing dentures.
Oral tori are relatively common
and are hereditary. If you notice
any changes in your mouth, like
small sores or lumps that do not
go away, be sure to bring them to
the immediate attention of your
dentist.
