VBS Begins Monday!

A GREAT DAY AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH-THURSDAY:

            EXCITEMENT GROWS-- VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL—BEGINS MONDAY (6/17)

     Last night was a great spiritual experience here at FBC.  There was a good group of adults for RECHARGE in the Worship Center.  Dr. Gravens gave a Bible Study on the life of Mary and Martha.  We appreciate Ronnie and Anita Glossip leading the music and it was great to have Johnny Ross sharing in a music solo after his surgery.  There were children in the preschool, children and student ministries.  Brad Holland led the Adult Teacher’s Meeting and Tom Fineout led the Adult Worship Choir rehearsal.  There is always something very special on Wednesday night for all ages at FBC.

     CIRCLE THIS DATE ON YOUR CALENDAR!--- Monday morning (6/17).  Vacation Bible School begins at 8:30 a. m. for children 5 years old through grade 6.  The theme for this year:  “IN THE WILD”.  VBS is one of the most important ministries that occurs each year to reach children with Bible Study and the Gospel.  You can register your child on line or come by the church office.  This year, each child will need to check in each morning and then the parent will get a security tag to get your child after VBS is over.  One way to keep your child safe and secure.

     Each Friday morning there is Men’s Coffee Fellowship at 8:30 a. m. in Room 109.  All men are invited to attend and enjoy the fellowship.

     Sunday (6/16) is Father’s Day.  FBC will have Sunday morning services at the usual time.  All men will receive a special gift from FBC.  At 8:30 a. m. and 11:00 a. m. in the morning worship services, Dr. Gravens will be preaching from Philippians 3:1-14 and his message is entitled: “CONFIDENCE IN CHRIST”.  It will be an exciting and worshipful time.  There will be no evening service this Sunday because it is a great time to spend time with your family and the special man in your life.  There will be Bible Study Life Groups meeting at 9:45 a. m. for Bible Study and there is a place for you.  Did you know that you can watch and hear the preaching services each Sunday over Cable Channel 2 or stream the service on Facebook?  If you cannot attend a worship service in person, you can watch and listen by cable television or streaming on Facebook.

     It is easy to hear many different ideas and philosophies in today’s world and life journey.  It is most important to know God’s Word.  The BIBLE (Basic Instruction Before Leaving Earth) is God’s guide and playbook for your life’s journey.  I would rather know what God says and you hear God speak when you read God’s Word-The BIBLE.  Speak the words as you read and you can hear God speak to you.

PERHAPS TODAY!!!

Have a great day in your neighborhood!!
