VBS In the wild has begun!

A GREAT DAY AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH-MONDAY:          
   VBS is off and running.  Adults and children are everywhere.  It is an exciting place here with many different ages and plenty of great smiling faces.  It is great how God is using adults and young students to share the Good News of Christ, plenty of love and attention and children having a great time.  Vacation Bible School is a very important and successful ministry of FBC.  Our thanks and appreciation for all the hard work, time and love given out by so many people.
     Yesterday was Father’s Day at FBC.  The rain came about the time most people started to church, but we were blessed by some wonderful church family people that were able to attend regardless of the weather.  FBC is blessed to have the Worship Service and Bible Study Life Group shown on Cable Channel 2 locally and it is, also, streamed on Facebook.  There is a group of people not seen in the Sound Booth in the Worship Center and the Broadcast Room that are working very hard each Sunday to broadcast the picture and sound to the community.  Just another special way God uses television and radio to give out the Good News of Christ.
     The last point in Pastor Jeff’s message yesterday was:  “PRESS ON!”  It was taken from Phillippians 3:12. Regardless of your circumstances, situations, or conditions, you continue to press on.  This is one reason why the word: “THROUGH” is so important.  God always leads us “THROUGH” the valley, the circumstances, the situations or the conditions.  You never give UP.  You never give IN.  You never give OUT.  You hang in there to complete your life’s journey.
     This afternoon at 2:00 p. m. the church staff will have its regular staff meeting.  Pastor Jeff will be leading this meeting.
     On Wednesday night, (6/19) FBC will have Mid-Week Bible Study.  The Bible Study will be led by Dr. Jeff Gravens.  It begins at 6:00 p. m. in the FBC Worship Center.  You and the community are invited to attend.
                               PERHAPS TODAY!!!
     Have a great day in your neighborhood!!     Fred W. Lewis
