From the Shepherd's Heart...Wednesday, January 6, 2016

Hopefully you saw the two new banners in the Auditorium Sunday of our RMT - Rainsville Mission Trek.  It is our mission statement with a cross laid over the crossroads of Highways 35 and 75 here in Rainsville.

"Reaching People with the Gospel to make disciples who in turn make disciples resulting in transformed lives."

I hope you have already memorized it as this is our heartbeat.  This is the standard by which we will measure everything we do.

The Gym has been buzzing the last two nights of Upward basketball and cheerleading teams practicing.  It has been fun and I look forward to our first day of games this Saturday.  Thanks to Whitney Wigley and all who are leading out.

You are invited to come any Saturday to not only see the games, but more importantly talk with those who are not members of our church.  Looking forward to seeing who God brings to Rainsville First Family due to this outreach.

Thanks to Kevin McCreless, Pastor at Broadway Baptist Church, for informing and inviting me to 21 Days of Prayer Broadway is hosting each morning (Monday-Friday) at 6:00 am and on Saturday at 9:00 am until January 23. This is linking up with The Church of the Highlands in Birmingham. You may come late, leave early or enjoy the one hour prayer time. It would be a blessing if you are able to attend to go.
