This October there are three important items on the Associational Calendar. First, is our Annual Associational Meeting on the 20th from 6:00 – 8:00 PM at New Life Baptist in Metter. John Waters, Pastor of FBC Statesboro, will be bringing the message that evening. Per our new Constitution and Bylaws only churches who have contributed a minimum of $150.00 in the last year will be able to seat voting messengers. Every pastor in the association should have recently received a letter from me about this. All churches are encouraged to attend the meeting, and those who cannot send messengers are encouraged to come as guest.
Second, from Monday the 21st to Saturday the 26th we will have our Baby Comfort Station at the Kiwanis Ogeechee Fair. We already have people who have volunteered to man it and pass out The Story of Jesus Through the Eyes of Children DVD to those with little ones who utilize it. Please begin praying with me now that God will use the love of Jesus shown by our volunteers and the message of the Jesus DVD to lead people to Himself.
Third, our Senior Adult Fall Festival will be on Tuesday, October 22 at 11:00 at Emit Grove BC. Our new Associational Senior Adult Ministry Director, Martha Floyd Wilson, has asked the Smileys to share with us through their Southern Gospel songs, hymns and inspirational music. Everyone is asked to bring a covered dish to share. Please come with a group from your church.
Serving alongside you,
Greg Abercrombie
