June is the month we celebrate birthdays – our Chapel family is celebrating 10 different people’s special day! We always delight in singing “Happy Birthday” to each one and several cakes have found their way to our fellowship meals. Kyle Hay has been fixing some outstanding food each Wednesday *we begin serving at 7:00 p.m.), including delicacies like stuffed potatoes, sloppy joe’s, pulled pork, brisket, pork loin! He is planning some special dishes for the rest of this month, and all are welcome to enjoy this fellowship with us!

We are hosting several groups in our Retreat Center. We have hosted A.J. and his family, James and Erin and friends, and are looking forward to Jessica being here for a week, and a men’s retreat at month’s end, and a Men’s Breakfast on Saturday, June 29 at 8:30 a.m. Early in July, we have 34 members of a family from the Valley coming for a week of relaxation – all our facilities will be full! Also, our good friend, Collin, will be bringing his family here soon. It is truly a blessing for us to be able to see people come here for a time to relax and see the transformation that happens before they leave! We are blessed to have our Retreat Center, and it being used frequently.

We were honored to be a part of Oil Field Helping Hand Fishing Tournament and are getting geared up for the Lone Star Shoot Out the later part of July. We could not possibly accomplish all we do if wedid not have the neighbors God has blessed us with. Daryl and Debbie and Dennis and Donna are always around the Chapel doing.
something that makes life much easier! They make it possible for me to sit back and watch God’s blessings in action.
We continued passing out food to those in our community who are having a rough time. The Service Club, people from First Baptist, and many we can not identify come by with items that continue filling our Pantry shelves. We received a grant from Formosa and spent almost all of it for meat items that we give out. We could not do this ministry without a lot of outside help – for you!

Pastor Joane and I continue our ministry to other congregations. We are blessed with several pastors – like Pastor Steve, Pastor Luke, Pastor James, Pastor Ted – who come along side Pastor Joane and me to assist us and minister to this local congregation. This allows us to preach at other churches.

Fisherman’s Chapel is an interdenominational congregation (which means that everyone who loves Jesus is welcome to be a part of us), who has been in Port O’Connor for almost 30 years. We gather each Sunday at 10:00 a.m. for Bible Class; 11:00 a.m. for Morning Service; and 6:00 p.m. for Evening Service. We have a Spanish speaking devotion time each Sunday at 5:00 p.m. in the Retreat Center. We gather each Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. for a time of food, fellowship, and time for a special message from God’s Word. One will always find a warm welcome at the Chapel and all are urged to, “Come, Grow With Us!”
