Summer is over and school has started. Things have become a lot quieter in POC, but not at First Baptist Church! The church is gearing up for a very busy fall and winter. Our Interim Pastor Rich Schaller becomes our full time pastor this month. You will be seeing him and his wife, Tina, around town more now. Visit FBC on Sunday at 11:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. or Thursday evening at 6:00 p.m. to hear the messages God places on his heart. We are very fortunate to have them both. Team Kids will be starting on Wednesday, August 23 at 5:30 p.m. If you have a first through fifth grader who would like to be part of this exciting program, call 361-983-2727 or go on the FBC Facebook page to register your child. Transportation is available if requested. FBC provides dinner, Bible study, recreation and crafts each week. Make sure your child gets to be part of all the excitement based on God’s word.

Each year, one of the three POC churches hosts the Community Thanksgiving Service. This year it will be hosted by FBC and the messages will be brought by Fisherman’s Chapel and St. Joseph’s Catholic Church. The tentative date is Sunday, November 12 at 6:00 p.m. Mark your calendars and plan to attend this special event. No reservations are necessary. Everyone is welcome.

FBC is waiting to welcome you with open arms to any of our services or events. Come Sunday morning at 10:00 for Sunday School, at 11:00 and 6:00 for church. We have Women’s Bible study on Tuesdays at 4:00 and prayer meeting on Thursday at 6:00. Team Kids is mentioned above. Find a place with us.
