God continues to bless the Church in every way. Bro. George Yarbrough and his wife Barbara travel back and fort to Goliad, Texas each weekend to bring the Church a Spirit filled message each Sunday. The Church appreciates their devotion and faithfulness while the Church “Pastor Search Committee” continues their God led duty to find a new pastor.

Several of our Church members and friends will be departing this Monday, September 26, for four days at Camp Zephyr’s Senior Adult Retreat. Camp Zephyr is located in Sandia, Texas on Lake Corpus Christi and has a beautiful campus and great motel housing and meeting facilities. Those attending will hear outstanding Bible teaching by Dr. Jimmy Arnold, preaching by David Parks, who ministers at the “Cowboy Church” and devotions by Bro. George Yarbrough. Sue and Marcos Gohlke will provide a great musical program.

This coming Wednesday, September 28, is “See You at the Pole” day in schools all around the world. Our children will gather around their school flag pole before school and pray. They will pray for their school, their classmates, teachers, our Nation and leaders and our Service men and women. This is totally a student-led event, but if you wish, you may join them in the background. Pray for our children as they honor God this next Wednesday morning.

The Church had a fantastic “Ice Cream Social” recently. Bro. George led in a devotion and following that, the Church honored all those who had birthdays in July, August, and September. Fellowship Hall was filled with members and friends who enjoyed ice cream, cake, cookies, sandwiches, and assorted “finger foods”. It’s great to have fun and fellowship with friends.

The Church is looking forward to the visit of Sam Craig on Sunday, October 16. Sam will be singing and preaching on Sunday morning.

Our Church Choir will travel to Palacios on Monday, October 17, to sing at the Senior Adult Retreat at Palacios Baptist Encampment. They will enjoy dinner with the senior adults.

The Church is preparing for “High Attendance Day” at the “Great Day in the Morning” services on Sunday, October 30. At this annual event, our Sunday School goal is 100. Immediately after the morning service, there will be “Dinner on the Ground” in Fellowship Hall with a wonderful meal and super desserts. Everyone is invited to participate and enjoy the inspiration and fellowship.

See you in Church Sunday!
