Junior Camp Day 2

Posted on by

Day two started off with wonderful weather that continued the whole day. The kids are having a great time, so great that their favorite part must be going to bed at night.
Bro. Don had a great message about putting on what we wear in our Christian life. He took a t-shirt with messages written in flourescant ink and turned on a black light to show the things we sometimes wear (envy, disobedience, anger, etc…) and then turned it around to reveal the things we should be wearing (love, obedience, truth, etc…).
While he was speaking Lauren Dalton turned to me and said, “I wish it was that easy to put on our Christian life”, which is so true because Satan attacks us anyway that he can.

Junior Camp Day 1

Posted on by

Ohh what a fun day we started with! It wasn’t too hot, the lake is really full, and the service was great. The temperature has been very mild for what it should be up here which is really good for the children. The lake is as full as it has ever been so there will be no combing the beach for shells. The service was great, Bro. Don had a great message.

Take a look at some of the pictures from Day 1.

Junior Camp-A Week Away!

Our juniors load up for a week at Texoma Baptist Youth Camp near Sherman next Sunday! The cost is $140.00 which includes room and board, transportation, meals while traveling, and a great time for our juniors! The ages are 8 years old through the 5th grade.
Our speaker is Don Claphan, a children’s pastor at East Side Baptist Church in Independence, Mo. He is known as the man of many hats and you will learn why.
We are in need of a lady sponsor to go with our girls.
We are in desperate need of some SUV’s to transport our kids to camp. If you would like to sponsor one of our kids, please mark your envelope, camp support. As you know, gas prices are high, so we could use some help with gas expenses. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Our camp funds are depleted, so we need your help!
Start planning now! A sign up sheet is on the foyer table. We need to know how many are going, so we can make plans. Thanks for your cooperation!

July-A Fifth Sunday Month

Sunday, July the 29th, is our fifth Sunday lunch here at the church! Baptists love to eat and there will be a good assortment of dishes prepared by our wonderful cooks. This would be a wonderful time for you to invite some friends to come with you. A list is on the foyer table of items needed. Come prepared to have lunch with your church family!

An Act of Obedience

There are two ordinances of the church which we will be observing on Sunday, the 29th. We have several who will be baptized after the morning service and we will observe the Lord’s Supper that evening at 5:30 p.m. If you are awaiting baptism, please see Bro. Hill.

Work Days Scheduled

We had our work day yesterday and made some good progress! Our next work day is Saturday, August the 18th, and another one on September the 15th. Your help is greatly appreciated!

July-A Fifth Sunday Month, the 29th

Do you remember what we do on a fifth Sunday month? We EAT! We bring our lunch and have a good time of fellowship. Many times we see folks during the service and don’t get a chance to really get to know them so this a time when we can get better acquainted. We’ll have a list on the foyer table next week. (Maybe Faye Hedges will bring another lemon pie!)

Work Days

Our next work day is coming up this Saturday, July the 14th. Meet here at 9:00 a.m. for some good fellowship and work! Other days scheduled are: Saturday, August the 18th, and September the 15th. Your help is greatly appreciated!

Boys Only Trip

Our teen age boys are planning a back country camping trip in the fall and really roughing it! This will require many different items than a normal camping trip, so if you would like to go or need information on what is needed, see Bro. Tim. We’ll see who the men really are!
