Thank You So Much! The Women’s Team Members would
like to thank Pastor Gary, the men and young people of our
church who served in many different capacities at the

day could not happen without their diligence, attention to
details and hard work. We Praise God! for them.
The Women’s Ministry
Dear Church Family,
Thanks to Pastor Gary, the Deacons and Members of First Baptist Church for their generosity in prayers, gifts, love and friendship during the time of our bereavement for family members who are lost. The Bible says who can bring good out of bad and we proved that God can from our awful loss. We had at least 45 souls that made decisions to follow Christ. Praise His Name! and thank you dear Brothers and Sisters a lot. Guy & Judy Minott & Family
