From the Shepherd's Heart....Friday, March 16, 2018

Roxanne and I are away for a few days and in my absense this Sunday you will have the opportunity to hear one my dear f
riends that you may have never heard preach but you will be glad you did after Sunday. 

Dr. Roger Willmore is a native of Arab and was called to preach as a teenager.  I first knew him well as he pastored the Cherry Street Baptist Church in Attalla.  He has pastored several great churches in Kentucky and Alabama and has served as President of the Alabama Baptist State Convention.  He is currently serving as Director of Missions in the Calhoun (Anniston area) Baptist Association.  He and his wife, Sandra, have one son. 

He has just returned from Japan where he ministered annually for several years.  He is a sought after preacher and conference preacher. I'm delighted he was able to come and preach at Rainsville First Baptist this Sunday.

Then this Sunday night our own Director of Missions in DeKalb Baptist Association, Ken Allen, will be preaching.  We love Ken and Sandra and their family.

We will be receiving a love offering Sunday night at the close of the service.
