From The Shepherd's Heart...Wednesday, November 16

We are joining hearts with many in our area who are praying for rain and for strength and protection over the fire fighters.  Only God can change this situation and provide the rain we need.

Thanks to all the Veterans who brought items for display tables this past Sunday. It was a great addition to our weekend honoring of our Veterans.

This Friday the following will be leaving to serve with the Don Avenue Baptist Church, Denham Springs, LA:  Isaac Mays, Michael Evett, Michael Helms, Tom H Evans, Jamie Hutchison, Nelson Overby, Greg and Sharon Wigley, Jimmy Traylor, Whitney Wigley, April and Luke Murdock, Kyle McLain, Melodie Brown, Alex Mays, Joseph Helms, Ethan Maness and Andrea Rains.


We join to pray for them for safety in travel, for strength for the work (they are doing construction work on the building), and to be a blessing and encouragement to the Don Avenue Family and Bro. Tom Higginbothm, Pastor.  They will return on Wednesday.

This Sunday afternoon we will meet at 3:00 to decorate the church for Christmas.  If you can come, please do and stay as long as you can.

This Sunday night we will join with other sister churches in our area for our annual Community Thanksgiving Service hosted by the Rainsville Community Church at 6:00.  Pastor Jason Bell, Nazareth Baptist Church, will be preaching.  I am not going to Louisiana on the mission trip in order to attend this Sunday night meeting.  I hope you will come to support our community of faith and be encouraged by the service.

Due to Thanksgiving, there will be no Wednesday night services on Wednesday, November 23. Also, we are closing the office at 12 noon on Wednesday and the office will be closed Thursday and Friday, November 24 and 25.

Upward Basketball is just around the corner.  If you would be willing to serve as a coach (head or assistant), cheer coach, concession stand commissioner or worker, referee, lead a half-time devotion, greeter or clean-up, then let Whitney Wigley know or use the insert in this past Sunday's bulletin.

Don't forget tonight is Business Meeting at 6:10 following by our teaching the Word of God in Philippians 3.
