STRAW POLL: Currently, the church is mailing out 200 copies of The Challenge newsletter.
We are conducting a straw poll to determine how many people in our church would like to receive it
via e-mail or a link to the website for the newsletter. Please let your class representative know
whether you would want to receive it in this way. Our representatives will then turn in those names to
the church office for evaluation. Thank you very much for your help.

Find It Here: Sharing Christ Across Kentucky! The Kentucky Baptist Convention will
be held at the Severns Valley Baptist Church in Elizabethtown on Tuesday, November 10. The
theme for the meeting will be Find It Here: Sharing Christ Across Kentucky.
“Find it Here” is a campaign to deliver the Gospel to 1.5 million households across Kentucky in the
weeks leading up to Easter Sunday 2010. It is part of the GPS initiative of the North American
Mission Board aimed at fulfilling the Great Commission in North America by 2020. Churches will be
encouraged to participate in a High Attendance emphasis during the spring of 2010. You will be
hearing more about this emphasis after the first of the New Year.
