Welcome
We are so glad you chose to worship with us today and we are excited about all the things God has been doing and will do in our congregation!
By worshiping together with Hapeville First Baptist Church, there can be little doubt that we have very little power on our own for lasting change to happen in our lives, yet when we choose to allow the Lord to lead and guide us, amazing things can happen.

Ephesians 4”4-10 (NIV)
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism; 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and
through all and in all. 7 But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.8 This is why it says: “When
he ascended on high he took many captives and gave gifts to his people” 9 (What does “he ascended” mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions? 10 He who de-scended is the very one who ascended higher than all the
heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.)
Wednesday Evening Bible Study will begin on January 10, 2018.
Please let us know if you plan to attend to ensure we have text companions available for everyone.
