The Personnel and Youth Committees are excited about you meeting our
prospective Minister of Youth. These committees unanimously recommend the
calling of Rachel Fox Oldham as our part-time Minister of Youth. Rachel, and
her husband, Tyler, will be joining our youth on Wednesday evening, July 11,
during LIGHT. This will be a great time for our youth to get to know Rachel and
Tyler. Please encourage your youth to be present!
You will also be able to meet Rachel and Tyler next Sunday morning, July 15.
This is where they will be on Sunday.
8:45 a.m. – Meet and Greet during a Continental Breakfast in the Christian
Life Center (We encourage all ages to attend, not just youth.)
9:30 a.m. – Rachel and Tyler will be present during Youth Sunday School.
10:45 a.m. – Rachel will share her testimony during Morning Worship. We
will vote at the end of the worship service.
If the church votes affirmatively, Rachel will begin her ministry on Wednesday,
August 1. You may pick up Rachel’s resume at either Welcome Center.
On a similar note, how does God want to use you during the next church year at
Fern Creek Baptist Church? There are so many opportunities. There are so
many responsibilities. Your spiritual gifts, talents, and abilities are needed in the
body of Christ. When you don’t use your gifts and abilities another part of the
body has to compensate for you and do the work that you are called to do.
Norma Routt, (Chairperson of our Nominating Committee) and the rest of the
Nominating Committee (Martha Blansette, Sam Frizzell, Dutch Kendall, Terry
Schult, and Chris Towles) would love to hear from you if you have not already
filled out the Nominating Committee survey.
You’ve heard the comparison between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea. It is
still true. Galilee is a lake full of life because it takes in water and gives it out.
Nothing lives in the Dead Sea because, with no outflow, the lake has stagnated.
It is dead! When we do not use our spiritual gifts, talents, and abilities, we are
like the Dead Sea. We are completely stagnant. Can you imagine what FCBC
would be if all of our church members would do what God has designed us to do
in His church and in His kingdom!!
And as always, continue to pray, “Lord, Send a Great Revival!”
HOMEBOUND COMMUNION You are invited to join the deacons on July 29 as they visit our
homebound members and share the Lord’s Supper with them.
Please meet in the conference room at 4:30 p.m. to divide into
teams.
Our sympathy is extended to:
The family of Bill Montfort at his death;
Walter and Judy Couch-Hughes at the death of Judy’s
sister-in-law, Brenda Spence.
Please pray for members / attendees in the hospital /
rehab as of July 9, 2018:
Dennis Starks – Westminster Terrace – Room 251-1
Emery Hobbs - Norton Women’s and Children’s Hospital -

cross is actually already full for the third panel.) Forms are available at

Wednesday through August 8th. We have music, missions, Bible study, and
crafts. This year’s theme is Candy Bars! This week‘s theme is Reese’s Piec-

will learn that no matter how small we are, Jesus loves us incredibly! Won-
derful Wednesdays are from 6:30 - 7:20 p.m. and are located in room 107 for
preschoolers and room 204 for grades 1 - 5. We are looking for you!

study, and recreation. Registration costs $10 for one child, $15 for two
