In the mid-1970’s, Dr. Pleitz, Paul Royal and other leaders led First Baptist Church to purchase the old Pensacola Technical School and convert it to the Christian Activities Center. Almost thirty years later, their vision led to another dream: the renovation and expansion of the CAC into a new multi-generational multi-purpose facility that includes an UPWARD-friendly gymnasium, enlarged restroom/shower facilities, two large multi-function meetings rooms, two classroom/conference rooms, state of the art audio/visual equipment, expanded storage space, handicap accessibility, a coffee shop, office suite, and external disaster relief trailer connections.
Dedication of the Paul Royal Recreation and Outreach Center is scheduled for this Sunday afternoon, January 27, at four o’clock. After the dedication, the ROC will be open for tours and a reception. The dedication is planned for outdoors at the entrance of the ROC, but in the event of inclement weather, the dedication will occur in the gymnasium.
Throughout January we have been exploring The Epic Adventures of Job as our Winter Bible Study for 2008. Last Sunday morning we talked about what to do “When the Darkness Deepens.” We highlighted Job’s response to his season of darkness:
*Job continued to worship.
*Job continued to dialogue with his friends.
*Job continued to dialogue with God.
*Job determined not to be overcome by the darkness.
This Sunday morning, we look at Job 42 which describes “Things Too Wonderful for Me to Know.” Invite a friend to join you are we gather for worship and Bible study.
Then Job replied to the LORD : "I know that you can do all things; no plan of yours can be thwarted. You asked, 'Who is this that obscures my counsel without knowledge?' Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.” Job 42:1-3 NIV
