Word of the Week

Today is a HUGE day!  There are a whole lot of important things going on!!!  I hope you are ready to roll!  First of all I want to welcome the Zebra Strings this morning.  I am excited about them being here to help lead us in worship.  This program is outstanding and I am so proud of the students involved.  A huge thank you to Vicki Nichols and Amy Quisenberry as well as the parents for getting the students here.

Beginning today at 11:00 until 2:00 the Back to School Fair Committee is hosting a BBQ sandwich lunch and silent auction at the new elementary school.  This is a great event for our community and needs our financial support.  I hope you will make an effort to go, eat and financially support this program!

During the Sunday School hour we will be having LIFE coach training for the Team Impact event coming this weekend.  If you missed out and want to be a coach make sure you see Preston or myself ASAP!

I hope today turns out amazingly well!

Word of the Week

We are two weeks away from what I believe will be an unbelievable weekend for the Kingdom of God and our church. Team Impact will be here May 4-6 at 7:00 each evening. We could do this event and at the end say, “neat, some people got saved!” or we can do the event and help the people who get saved begin their journey with Christ the right way! My prayer is we do the latter. We will need help if we are going to accomplish this goal. We first must be praying for lost people and inviting lost people to come to the events. Then we need LIFE coaches to be ready to invest in and pour into the new believers. We will be having a special training time next Sunday morning during the Sunday School hour to help you become a good LIFE coach. I hope you will seriously consider and pray about being a LIFE coach and being a vital part in a new believer’s journey of faith! Keep praying for the event!!

Word of the Week

This morning we will be having a called church conference at the conclusion of both services to address the sound system issues we have been having and hear a recommendation from the Property Committee concerning the solution. From the time we finished the renovation of the Sanctuary five years ago, we have had problems with the sound, from minor to what have become pretty major.

Many people have taken time to hear from a couple of different companies and listened to ideas on what needs to be done. We have decided to go with Better Sound Company. The cost will be $19,800.00. We have the money to fix the system in special funds but I think this is a great opportunity for us as a church to show God’s faithfulness. I am challenging us as a church to have a special time of giving, above and beyond our tithe next Sunday, to see what God can do! I ask you to be praying about what He would have your part be.

I hope you have a great week!

Word of the Week

Happy Easter!! What an awesome day to celebrate the Resurrection!! Without the Resurrection we have no reason to gather here today, but because of the Resurrection we have a great responsibility before us! Jesus left us with the challenge to “Go and make disciples.” This can be a daunting task for some believers. Some are afraid to share Christ because they are afraid of confrontation or rejection.

One of the “L’s” of our church’s mission is to LEAD… we are going to give you an opportunity to LEAD May 4-6. We will be hosting TEAM IMPACT each evening at 7:00 here at FBC. This is an awesome opportunity to invite a lost friend, family member or co-worker to hear about Christ in a non-threatening environment! More details will be forthcoming.

I am glad you are here today!

Word of the Week

The "L's" have been laid out! What a great job Preston did last week sharing with you about Launch! I have to tell you it was an amazing thing for me to be "launched" into Collins, Missouri this past week. It was such a privilege to be able to share the Word of God and now so many of you were back home praying . . . and it showed. We now have 7 new brothers and sisters in Christ as a result of my "liftoff"! I pray as we become obedient to Love, Lead, Liberate and Launch others and ourselves, we well see the Lord of the Harvest be very pleased with us!

Happy April Fool's Day!
