The following people have become “new members” of Converse FBC since January 2011. We would like to welcome: Cera Brockman Jan 2, Sabrina Fautheree Jan 26, Julia Ward Apr. 3, Brittaney Alter Apr. 24, Edna Laird Apr. 24, Shena Carpenter May 1, Nicholas & Jeannette Coalson June 5, and Deborah Howard June 5th. Welcome to all these new members; we are glad to have you in our church family and look forward to serving with you in God’s projects for the church.
Put on the “Big Yellow Button” and you will open the door to a wider witness opportunity. The idea is to pray for people who ask for prayer or just who ask about the button. It starts conversations and provides openings to lead people to the Lord. We have 74 poker chips to prove it. Remember, if you have any questions ask Sam Brockman.
Due to the Emergency financial measures we voted on in April, We will be having evening services on the 1st and 3rd Sundays and, unless they are holidays, NO Services on the 2nd and 4th Sundays,. This cuts down on the cost output for the church. We also are not taking a special Mission offering, but are taking an “I Love My Church” offering each Sunday Morning instead. This offering’s funds are used to meet the needs of the church financially, of our mission needs, and of ongoing and future projects. It has been a very beneficial change. We will revisit these measures at the August Business Meeting.
Every Tuesdays @10:00am is bible study at GRASP and every Wednesday @6:30 pm is $1/1meal, prayer & bible study.
We are having several visitors lately so be sure to stop and great them on Sunday. Look on the bulletin board for names to call and welcome our visitors. We have had several come because of the WEB site. If anyone wishes to help David, with ideas or time, on the site just call him at 912-9441.
Let us pray for our members that are sick or traveling, and the pastor as he prepares for services. Please remember to pray for all of our brothers and sisters in Christ, our church, our community, Camargo orphanage, our men and women in armed services, and also the people who don’t know Christ as Savior. We hope to see you all Wednesday and Sunday. Remember to pray and seek God’s face daily. Let’s join Him where He is working. May God bless you and your families!
