Dear Church Family,
Well, another school year is almost over. Its hard to believe that summer
is here. Many of you will be taking some much deserved time off,
vacationing and spending time with your family. Thats a good thing. But,
if you are here, support your church with your attendance and your
finances. I especially want to encourage you to be faithful to your LIFE
group class. In fact, be intentional about inviting someone to come with
you.
If you have been in attendance the past couple of months, you know that
discipleship has been on my heart. Like many other churches, we have not
done a good job of making disciples, which is the mission of the church. In
fact, many do not know what that means. I spent eight weeks, on Sunday
mornings, sharing what a disciple is. Also, on Wednesday evenings we
have just finished an excellent series, Follow Me, by David Platt. The
one session on the church is one of the best I have ever heard, as he shares
the importance of the local church. I desire us to be a church of disciples
who are making disciples. That means we share the good news about Jesus
with others. Then when people make a decision to follow Christ, lets help
them to grow spiritually. It also means that we will grow as well. Then we
want those who have been discipled, to in turn make disciples. That is the
New Testament pattern.
In a few weeks, I am going to challenge some of you to be a one-on-one
discipler of someone that God may direct you to. That will be time well
invested. We also want to remember that our LIFE Groups, on Sunday
mornings, are avenues of discipling. That remains a great opportunity that
we have available. Lets make the most of it. Lets be found faithful in
these days !
In Christ,
Bro. DarrolBro. DarrolBro. DarrolBro. Darrol

Dear Church Family,
First of all, congratulations to all of our graduating high school seniors Class of 2015! Graduating this
year we have:
Maria Good Jacob Hayley Michael Hutchinson
Courtney Lewis Jacob Murray Nick Riggins
Joshua Seco
We are extremely proud of your accomplishments and I look forward to seeing what will become of you
in the future. Always remember that the Lord has a plan for you and you can always rely on Him.
He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8
June is upon us, and with it the end of my life as a single man! Laura and I will be getting married Saturday,
June 6th at 4PM here in the First Baptist Church Sanctuary. We would like to take this time to remind you
that everyone is invited to both our Wedding Ceremony and Reception afterwards. However, if you plan on
attending the reception at the Avon Park Community Center at 6PM, please sign in to our Wedding Reception
RSVP sheet in the church foyerso that we can prepare for your attendance.
Also, dont forget that June 22nd -26th is this years Vacation Bible School dates; and we will need all hands
on deck! If you havent done so already, please prayerfully consider how you can participate in this years
VBS. Jesus delights in our children and states, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for
the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these, (Matthew 19:14). Remember, your time and resources
could have an impact not only the life of one of these students, but their everlasting soul. What could be more
worthwhile?
In closing, please continue to pray for both the students and the counselors at this years youth camp: Super
Summer 2015. Pray that God would work through the counselors in such a way that Jesus would be
magnified in everything they do. Also pray that God would soften the hearts of students before they even
make it to the grounds of Lake Yale to be receptive to the Gospel proclaimed.
Thank you for your prayers and support.
Keep fishing,
-Bro. Brian
