Enjoy A Safe and Refreshing Spring Break!

This is an exciting week as we adjust to the earlier edition of Daylight Savings Time, as many of our students enjoy Spring Break, and we watch the construction of our first ROC wall. That’s right. The construction phase of the ROC is officially underway as the first of many new interior walls has now been framed. Construction will progress inside the existing structure for the next few weeks. Then, during the week following Easter, work will begin on the new addition.

On Sunday evening, we will meet at six o’clock for Vespers in Pleitz Chapel. Our guests will be Carolyn Anderson and Ray Johnson, representing one of our multiple mission partners. Carolyn has been a long-time friend to our church as she has served in many capacities in Florida Baptist life and more recently as coordinator for the Florida Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. Ray is former missionary to the Philippines, former pastor of Riverside Baptist Church in Miami and now the newly elected coordinator of the Florida CBF. Ray will share a devotional message during Vespers. After Vespers we will enjoy a reception in the Atrium as we express appreciation to Carolyn on her retirement and as we welcome Ray to his new assignment.

We will continue our series Deep Questions for a Deeper Faith on Sunday morning as we ask “Would You Leave the Ninety Nine?” from Luke 15:1-7.

If you are traveling on a vacation or to visit family members during Spring Break, travel safely and enjoy a time of physical and spiritual refreshing. If you have friends or guests in town this week, invite them to join you as we gather for worship and Bible study this Sunday.
