Calling all Women of First Baptist Church to a PAINT PARTY
Friday, August 15
th
from 6:00 until in the FBC Fellowship Hall
Bring your favorite salad or dessert!!!
The total cost is $25 per person which includes cutout, paint, brushes
and bow. To sign up, bring a $10 deposit and the cutout shape you
request to the church office or see Kathy Dugan in the Education
Building hallway during the Sunday School hour. (Remaining balance
of $15 is due night of party.)
THANK YOU!, Clarene Jones for seventeen years of
faithful service to our Lord as Administrative Assistant at FBC.
We will miss you in the office.
This Sunday is the day we set aside for the election of
Deacons. Our church asks for 30 men to serve on a rotating basis
for a period of three years. This year, due to moves and deaths,
we need 15 men to serve. Seven men have passed the deacon
screening process and will be presented for vote on this Sunday
morning. Because we do not have a full 15 we can vote for the
approval of all seven at one time. The men who have agreed to
serve if elected are: Jim Beck, Hal Burrell, Mickey Doss,
Lindsey Gay, Fred Rayfield, Dewey Robinson and Hugh Willis.
We will vote at the end of the Morning Worship services.
Earl Barron will be with us on Saturday Morning,
August 9, to teach the Book, I AM A CHURCH MEMBER, by
Thom Rainer. I am asking all adult classes to teach this book for
the first six weeks of the new church year. Copies will be made
available for students to purchase. Some of the literature for the
next quarter is also using this for the first six studies. Earl will
be leading sessions in the Fellowship Hall from 8:30 until noon.
This is also open to non teachers that want a head start on the
new year.
I look forward to seeing you this Sunday.

Paul

SAINTS ALIVE BEGINS
Mark Monday, August 4 on your calendars as the starting
date to begin another great year of singing and ministry in
the SAINTS ALIVE CHOIR. Last year was our best ever
with many new members and lots of opportunities to lead
worship and share Gods love with hundreds of folks in as-
sisted living facilities. The new music for our Sr. Adult
Choir Festival is in. Well discuss the dates and share our
plans for 2014-2015 at our 10:30 AM rehearsal that day.
Bring a friend and have some fun with Saints Alive.

AWANA Sunday, August 10
5:30 pm - 7:30 pm Ages 3 years through 5th grade
Help your child hide God's Word in his or her heart! AWANA helps
children memorize scripture, learn more about God and have tons of
fun. Plus, AWANA kids are involved in service projects throughout
the year.

We are still looking for more adult help in making this program a
success! Please be a part of helping a child learn more about Christ.
There are several levels of involvement and we would love to discuss
options with you. Email AWANA Commander Julie Cottles at
[email protected] or Stacey (see contact info below).

AWANA Leaders will meet Sunday, August 3, at 6:30 pm in the
Fellowship Hall to get ready for the year!

Extended Session
We need a few more people to help out in extended session this year!
Please consider serving on one of our 8 teams. You will be in the
nursery during the 11 am service roughly 7 times in 2014-2015.
.
Children's Ministry
There are still a few big holes in the 2014-2015 year for service. I
know that means God is calling you to serve possibly as a Sunday
School teacher, AWANA leader or RA/GA leader. I may not have
spoken to you yet, but please be obedient to the Lord as He leads you
into service for our church during the next year. The first step is to
call and talk with me!
