Lottie Moon Post Office The Mission Kids groups are accepting Christmas cards for the Lottie Moon Post Office. There is a suggested donation of $0.25 per
card. Please remember to send Christmas cards to active church members only. This is a great opportunity to spread Christmas love to one another while supporting the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. Cards will be accepted at the Welcome Center and the Lottie
Moon Post Office in the Central Lobby through Wednesday, Dec. 18th.
This is the time of year when we focus on giving and as a church we place a special emphasis on giving to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. One hundred percent (100%) of ALL gifts to the Lottie Moon Christmas offering directly funds international missionaries as they
reach out to the 2.8 billion people who have little or no access to the gospel. Every penny of the offering goes to support international missionaries, including salaries, medical care, housing, retirement, transportation, children’s education and more. According to the International Mission Board, the average costs
for supporting an international missionary in 2019: $61,930 per year $5,161 per month $1,191 per week $170 per day
NATIONAL GOAL: $160 million FIRST BAPTIST GOAL: $61,930 (The cost for 1 missionary)

55+ Bowling
The 55+ bowlers met December 2nd. We had 3 bowlers and 2 spectators. Frank Tittle had the best luck of all the bowlers and ended up
with the best score for the day with Buck Buckner a very close second. The 55+ bowlers will meet again on January 6, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. If you would like a good time and a little exercise, please join the 55+ Bowlers on
December 2nd at 10:00 AM at the Cookeville Bowling Alley. We bowl a couple of games and are usually finished just before noon. If interested and you want more information call, text or e-mail John Shaffer 931.261.3538 or email at [email protected].
Dear Church,
Thank you for participating in the Small Group Ministry of First Baptist Church. Beginning in January we will take a very important and excit-ing journey together through God’s Word. For the entire year we will read the Bible Chronologically. Each week the Pastor’s sermons will be from the section of Scripture that we read, and the Small Groups will study from the same section of Scripture. Together we will learn the Story of God’s grace and redemption from cover to cover in the Bible. The church has provided this study guide (Reader’s Guide to the Bible) to be used for small groups that meet on Sunday morn-ings. This will replace the quarterly literature that the church has provided in the past. We encourage you to use this book to prepare for the study time on Sundays. Please feel free to place your name in the book so if it’s misplaced we can return it to you. This guide will be the only guide we will use as a church this year so keep it close and study consistently through the year to gain the most you can from this Journey! Thank you for loving God and seeking to know Him more completely! This year will be so exciting! Enjoy the journey as we ac-complish this Together! Pastor Scott
The Christmas Program Noël The Divine Mystery Will be rebroadcast on December 22nd and
December 29th at 7:00 p.m. On Cable Channel 192.
