Together We Pray in OCTOBER…for the spiritual well-being of one another
Pray for spiritual growth by: • Seeking out service opportunities that utilize the gifts and talents
with which God has blessed them. 1 Peter 4:10 Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.
I saw a lot of FBC members serving at and attending CityFest this past Saturday and Sunday! Consider what took place as a result of this much prayed for and anticipated time of 10 outreach events in 9 days, including ministry in prisons, luncheons, a rodeo, media coverage, and the major event with a Family Fun Zone, music and the proclamation of the Gospel.
In all there were 405 partnering churches allowing the event to be free of charge… 1,290 believers trained to minister to those indicating a decision for Jesus… 37,350 people reached in person with the Good News… 1,454 documented decisions for Jesus Christ… 93,000 people reached via online livestream… an exciting, growing unity among the Christian community… and an entire region shaken by the life- changing message of the cross. Thanks be to God!
Stay tuned for various ministry opportunities through CityServe, focusing on fostering and adoption, mentoring, racial unity, sexual exploitation, homelessness and mental health.
Our next opportunity for unique church-wide ministry is our Fall Fun Fest on Wednesday October 30th from 6:00-8:00 PM in our parking lot.
We still need volunteers to serve in the name of Jesus as hosts for each of our games. If you are available to be here, please sign up in your Sunday School classes or in the lobby of 4 West!
Our next opportunity for unique fellowship is at the Church Family Fish Fry at the ranch of Dan and Stacy Hamilton on Saturday, October 26th! This Together We Worship gathering will be a fun night for you to show off your family’s favorite dessert recipe, visit with friends and enjoy the Hamilton’s famous fish dinner. There is no cost for the dinner, but there will be an opportunity to give a special offering at the event, dedicated to the Together We Worship project. Before we are back worshiping in our sanctuary, we hope to reach as much of our $4.2M faith goal in gifts and pledges – as possible. We are $1.8M away from our goal, and we are praying for gifts of all sizes, according to the amount the Lord prompts each to give. So be praying about your family’s special offering for this event. Registration link in the body of this email.
So much to be thankful for and look forward to!
