Sunday was a great day as we celebrated VBS and
witnessed the baptism of a new believer, Thomas Shockley.
The morning services were capped off with the addition of the
Baxleys to our congregation and the profession of faith of
Allison Oliver. Sunday evening we enjoyed the fellowship of
the Eldorendo Baptist Church and heard an outstanding
concert by the Saints Alive Choir of First Baptist. What a
great day!!!
This Sunday will be just as exciting as we will have
one to baptize in the Morning service and as we celebrate the
Fourth of July. First Baptist Church is a great place to
worship.
I am looking forward to our Silent Lords Supper
Service on July 13. If you have never been a part of a silent
service then you really wont want to miss this event. It is a
time of reflection and rededication as we listen to God speak
to us throughout the service. Make your plans now to attend.
REVIVAL SERVICES will be held on OCTOBER
12-15. Rob Coram will be preaching and John Hall will lead
the music for these services. Mark the date and begin now to
pray for those services and for all the services of First Baptist
Church.
I look forward to seeing you this Sunday.

Paul

CHURCH MUSICIANS NEEDED
Thanks for taking a moment to complete and return the
Music Ministry Service Survey which was sent to known
musicians here at FBC. If you did not receive a survey
and have an interest in participating in the Music Minis-
try, please call me at 400-7070. I will get a copy to you
ASAP. Return them to me or to the box located by the
Choir room door. Your faithful participation is needed for
our body to perform at its best!

SAINTS ALIVE-MAKING A DIFFERENCE
We were the featured worship leaders for the Fifth Sun-
day Sing which was held at Eldorendo Baptist Church on
Sunday, June 29. Those who came were blessed. The fel-
lowship meal was great, too. I appreciate all of the Saints
Alive Choir members who invested their lives in sharing
the Gospel way above and beyond what we have done
before. You shared in 10 concerts in 6 weeks and traveled
over 200 miles.

VBS
Let me add my voice of appreciation to those who are
praising the laborers in the VBS fields. Your toil and
sweat paid off last week and will reap many benefits in
the lives of these kids for years to come. Hearing the
Gospel in VBS changed my eternal future and your ef-
forts had eternal consequences.

Art

We have hit the ground running here at FBC. I could not be
more excited about the opportunities the last three weeks have
provided. From MERGE, VBS, and a vision trip with Reach
the Nations, God has really provided a great opportunity for
me to meet people and begin building relationships.

Please join in praying for us while we continue to transition.
We are planning on moving within the next two weeks. We
cannot wait to live here and join the community. Also, please
pray that God will sell our house in Opp!!!!

I am here to serve you, so if you ever need me do not hesitate
to call, text, or email!! My email is jbaxley AT fbcbainbridge
DOT com. I look forward to seeing everyone this week at
worship!!

Blessings,
Jeff
