I just returned from another “Senior Adult Retreat”. This one was in Palacios at the Texas Baptist Encampment. I returned this past Thursday after an outstanding three day retreat led by Sam Craig, a music evangelist, author, recording artist and missionary. I enjoyed every minute!

The Church had an outstanding morning service this past Sunday. Attendance was down some, but the enthusiasm was up! The evening service was cancelled due to the Annual Guadalupe Association Meeting Sunday evening at Victoria First Baptist Church. The meeting was preceded by a fine barbecue dinner. Attendees were treated to a mini-concert by the First Baptist Church Student Choir. The new Guadalupe Baptist Association Executive Director, Walter Jackson, gave a glowing annual report and his plans and vision for 2013.

This Sunday, October 28, is the Churches “Great Day in the Morning”, which is also “High Attendance Day”. The morning service at 11:00 a.m. will have Gospel singing, special music, choir specials and a very informative, spiritual message from the pulpit by the Pastor, Rev. Donnie Martin.

Immediately following the morning worship service, everyone is invited to the Church Fellowship Hall for a great meal and a dessert table prepared by the Church Fellowship Committee.
It is not too late for everyone to fill a “shoe box” with “goodies” for the Annual Operation Christmas Child. Complete information is available in the church foyer. “Shoe Boxes” will be delivered to the Victoria shipping site on Monday, November 12. Be blessed this year by filling a shoe box for some needy child this Christmas, somewhere in the world!

See you in church Sunday!
