Roxanne and I are away until Thursday celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary. What a lady that would marry a pastor and then stay with him for 35 years.
If you need ministry while we are gone, call the church office, Keith Beatty, Craig White or any of our Deacons.
I will be back in the office this Friday and I look forward to preaching this Sunday "Forgiveness: So What?" in the continual series "The God Who Forgives."
Just a reminder the church office will begin opening on Fridays from 8-Noon beginning November 6. I will begin taking Thursdays off and working on Fridays. Keith Beatty will be available for hospitals and general ministry in my place on Thursdays. I know you will respect my day off and receive his ministry.
Reminder: Upward Basketball evaluations will be Monday, November 16 (5:30-7:30), Thursday, November 19 (5:30-7:30) and Saturday, November 21 (8 to Noon). Contact Whitney Wigley if you have any questions or wish to serve.
Roxanne and I have had the privilege of hosting the "Get Acquainted Fellowships" and now these are being made available to anyone in the church. We will be hosting two more fellowships on Sunday, November 8 and 15. Signup in the foyer. Meals are $7.00 each which includes fried chicken fingers, baked potato, slaw, hush puppies and drink from Katy's Katfish.
I am looking forward to our first "Hope Puppets" presentations. We are looking for six "Greeters" each session to stand at the front door and side entrance to welcome everyone. Then these will remain in the foyer during the show to seat late comers and help individuals who might need help during the show. Also, these will receive the offering at the end of the show.
We are also having a "Prayer Room" in the Bride's room after each show for anyone who wants to talk about their relationship with the Lord or just needing prayer.
Pray we will be a good witness for Christ and Rainsville First Baptist during these shows. Remember, the reason we do this is "to reach people with the Gospel."
