Summer Highlights

The Summer of 2007 is filled with opportunities for worship, Bible study, missions, and recreation. Our First Baptist Family celebrates your faithful participation during the summer months.

Here are a few notes and highlights related to recent and upcoming events:

1. We applaud the 405 champions who participated in Game Day Central last week.
2. Thank you Chapel Choir for sharing the awesome music from the “North to Niagara Tour” last Sunday evening.
3. This week we welcomed home the mission teams who have been serving in The Sudan, Russia, and Kenya.
4. Pray for our student mission team who will be departing Saturday to serve in Costa Rica.
5. Pray for those who are serving on extended international mission assignments: Andrea Burks serving in Indonesia, Andy Stubblefield serving in North Africa, and Samir Ibrahim serving in North Africa.
6. Pray for others departing on mission trips this week: Christina Hook serving in Uganda, Carol Rankin serving in Romania, and Fran Crumpton serving in Russia.
7. Our Summer Blood Drive is scheduled for this Sunday, June 24. The Northwest Florida Blood Mobile will be on our campus beginning at 7:30.
8. Remember the “Safe At Home” Rally this Sunday afternoon. The game begins at 5 o’clock followed by a Christian concert and a message by evangelist Scott Dawson.
9. On Sunday nights in July we are offering multiple Discipleship Options. Register now to be a part of one of these discipleship groups.
10. Mark your calendar for our Baptism at the Beach scheduled for four o’clock Sunday July 29 at 501 Panferio Drive.

Our message this Sunday, “More Than Three Little Pigs,” comes from the gospel story about Gaderene who was delivered from his demons. Invite a friend and join us as we consider faith-based ways to confront the legion of adversaries in life.
