So Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him
Hebrews 9:28 (NIV)

Vacation Bible School is almost here. Mark the dates down on your calendar, July 6-10. The theme this year is “It all Comes back to Jesus” using 1 John 4:9 as our theme verse. This is always such a powerful and effective outreach of our church. Your help is vital to make this ministry happen.

Don’t miss out being blessed as you seek to be a blessing to others. Contact Bryan today!
VBS NEEDS
We need 90 shoebox lids for crafts. If you have any shoebox lids to donate, please bring them to the church office.

We welcome into our Christian fellowship Doug and Tiffany Broughton who come to us by profession of faith and believer’s baptism. Doug and Tiffany have an infant son, Tanner.

GOD’S CALL, OUR CHURCH, YOUR CHOICE
Please continue praying and discerning God’s call for your place of ministry within our fellowship. The Nominating Committee is continuing to seek the Spirit’s leading in coordinating the gifts and talents God has assembled here at FBCS for Kingdom work. Don’t give in to what is easy, instead let us “fix our eyes upon Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith (Heb. 12:2a) to claim what He is calling each of us to do. It is God’s call to Our Church but it will always be Your Choice to respond. Will you choose to serve? Please feel free to contact any of the committee members; Joyce Wright (Chairperson), Gayle Bizzell, Kay Carroll, Terry Carroll or Judy Williams with your responses or questions.

T-SHIRTS FOR GUATEMALA
T-Shirts will be available to help raise money for Tabitha, our partnering ministry in Guatemala. The ministry seeks to aid impoverished mothers living in a Guatemalan dump by providing childcare so that the mothers can earn income during the day. The T-Shirts reflect the spirit of the Tabitha mission—providing hope in the dump. Shirts come in adult sizes S-XL, and are available in the church office for a donation of at least $12.

“WHAT MAKES A DAD”

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad
