Thank You

I would like to thank my church family for the beautiful flowers. I

really appreciate you thinking of my family at this time. Words

cannot express my gratitude for your prayers and loving actions . I

want to especially thank Bro. Nathan for being there with us and

attending Mother’s funeral.

June Hagedorn

Thank you for the food and the kind words of support when our

mother, Mildred Bell passed.

Doug & Judi Bell

We want to sincerely thank the committee and all the ladies who

prepared food. The meal was great and it gave us a place to visit.

Also we want to thank our church family for their prayers and

cards during the many years of Morris’ illness. His eyes would

light up whenever we passed on a message to him. Somewhere in

his mind he remembered his SS class members when they were

mentioned.

God Bless,

Judy, Gary Thomas, Tonja, Mark, Grayson, Garete Greer

Dear First Baptist Church Family,

Thank you for the beautiful Christmas Cactus given in memory of

my father, Gilbert Schropp.

Sincerely,

Connie Mobley

Wednesday Nights at 6:00

Sunday Nights at 5:30

252 is our new Children's Church service on Sunday mornings. Your child will

not want to miss this excellent time of worship in our brand new worship

room!

We have a busy month of January! For our guys,

January is Manuary. We will discover what

Biblical manhood is. Join us Sunday nights at

5:30 and the special events we have throughout

the month. Don’t forget to do the challenges to

conquer Manuary. Girls, we have a special Bible

Study for you on Sunday Nights at 5:30 led by

Holly Sutherland called Beautiful Encounters.

We will discover how Jesus changed different

women in the Bible.

This month at Surrender, we are learning about

the Parable of the Two Sons. Don’t miss this

incredible series.

In small groups on Sunday mornings, we will

continue studying the Book of Matthew.

The Winter Retreat Group at Magic Kingdom in Orlando, FL

Thanks to Don and Violette Defoor, Gary Tidwell, Mattie

Barringer, and Luke Ryan for all of your help with the renovation

of 252 room. The room looks outstanding, and the children’s

ministry cannot wait to use it to teach about Jesus. We appreciate

all you did to make the room look awesome.

The Children’s Committee

The Church staff are so blessed to serve along side each of you. We

were abundantly blessed during the holiday season. Thank you for
