CHRISTMAS KINDNESS

Every year we distribute baskets of food and love to some folks who might need a bit of encouragement at Christmas time. Sometimes that’s due to financial need. Sometimes it’s due to pain and loss. Sometimes it’s due to trials they’re undergoing. We will be packing and distributing the boxes tomorrow morning (Saturday, 12/17) at 9:00 AM. Please come and help if you can. It is not a big time commitment, but it sure might show the love of our…

Good Questions!

It’s the last Wednesday of the month and that means it’s time for the monthly Bible Talk with the Elders, when we work through and attempt to answer questions people have about the Bible. Here are a few questions we will be talking about this evening: What does the Bible say about Christian tithing? Should a Christian tithe? What does the Bible say about dinosaurs? Are there dinosaurs in the Bible? What does the Bible say about drinking alcohol? Is…

TIME TO PACK!

This year’s Operation Christmas Child packing party is TOMORROW, Saturday, November 12th, starting at 10AM. Our goal this year is to pack at least 750 boxes, and we’re actually hoping to top 1000. Join us at 10. This is a wonderful ministry for all ages, from the smallest child to the oldest senior. All can be involved and get in on the rewards of sending a box of gifts, the most important of which is the gift of salvation, to…

Haven

Just a quick reminder that we serve at the Haven of Rest in Akron on the first Saturday of every month, feeding the homeless and needy. So that’s this Saturday, November 5. We meet at the Haven at 10AM. If you’ve never helped with rewarding ministry, give it a try. If you have questions, you can reach out to Paul Richards or Larry and Karen Cannon.

Have A Question?

This Wednesday evening at 6:30, we will hold another of our Bible Talks With the Elders. These events are meant to be a means of digging deeper into God’s Word and the Christian faith. Questions are submitted in advance, or just asked during the event, and the pastors and elders do their best to try and answer them from the Bible. We have a couple of really good and timely questions that have been submitted this month. We could use…

THE BEST SATURDAY OF THE MONTH IS HERE!

Well, at least the best for the guys who attend Men’s Prayer Breakfasts! That’s right… it’s tomorrow, October 22nd, at 8:00AM in the new building. Food, Fun, Fellowship, and Feasting on God’s Word. Believe me, if you’ve not attended one before, you don’t want to miss it. And if you have attended it before, I know you’re adding an AMEN to what I just said. Come early and get a seat!

It’s been a while now!

Since some of you attended prayer meeting, that is. Now that our building is completed and we are getting back in the swing of things here at FBC, we need to boost our efforts at prayer meeting. I’m convinced that what God has done here has been a response to the faithful prayers from you, His people. If you haven’t made it in a while, let me encourage you to join us tonight for prayer meeting. We meet at 6:30,…

FFF Time!

It’s Food, Fun, and Fellowship time at Makruski Manor! Tomorrow (Saturday, September 17) at 5:00 PM, the McHenrys and the Makruskis will be hosting the Campfire Fellowship for this month. Bring a dish to pass and a chair on which to sit, and spend some quality time with your FBC brothers and sisters in Christ.
