Join us Easter Sunday

A GRAT DAY AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH—WEDNESDAY
                                                PERHAPS TODAY!!
     Yesterday we began the day with staff meeting and it was great to have our new pastor, Dr. Gravens, there for the first time.  Parents Day Out began at 9:00 a. m.  Dr. Gravens was very busy with the help of others to get his new office set up and ready to work.
       Today, the Community Bible Study began at 9:00 a. m.  There are only two more sessions left for this Bible Study year.  There are different ages from preschool through high school involved in the study of God’s Word during the Community Bible Study.  Tonight RECHARGE will meet in room 109 at 6:15 p. m. with Andy Smith as the Bible Teacher.  The church family menu is:  barbeque chicken; baked potato salad; fried okra; salad; roll; drink and dessert.  The adult choir will be meeting at 6:00 a. m. and other Bible study ministries from preschool through high school youth will be studying God’s Word.
     Next Sunday (4/21) is Easter.  Our new pastor, Dr. Jeff Gravens, will be in the pulpit for the first time.  It is going to be an exciting day.  There will be two full morning worship services at 8:30 a. m. in the Worship Center and Spence Chapel.  At 11:00 a. m.  there will be two full morning worship services in the Worship Center and Spence Chapel.  Dr. Gravens will be preaching in the Worship Center for all services.  There will be NO evening worship services on Easter Sunday night.
     There is still time to sign your student up for summer camp.  The children and the youth have special camps to attend.  For information, please contact the church office.
     The CROSS is a clear demonstration of God’s love for you and the world.  The CROSS was a cruel and mean way of punishment.  Jesus went to the CROSS willingly and for a purpose.
         Have a great day in your neighborhood!      Fred W. Lewis
