Greetings from Cocoa
Beach, Florida,
Fran and I are enjoying
several days away on the beach in Cocoa Beach, Florida. I appreciate Bro. Brad Tackett and Chris
Young filling in for me while I am away.
We will be back in Carthage for Thursday night’s booth at the Smith
County Fair and services this Sunday.
You are invited and
encouraged to be a part of the Smith County Fair Ministry Booth this week, July
1-3 from 5:30-8:00 PM. This year we are focusing
all our efforts on Thursday-Saturday nights at the fair. We will have sno-cones, water, photo booth,
and a Bible give-a-way each of the nights.
This is a great time to reach-out to the community. Plan to wear your mission t-shirt each night
you attend the fair, especially when you are working in the booth. For those working the fair booth, the church
will cover the cost of your admission if you will come through the back gate
and let Deborah Weaver know you are serving that night. The Sunday School classes will be the hosts
of the booth:
Thursday Jim
Broyles and Samantha Upchurch
Friday Jan
Trainham
Saturday Brad
Tackett
This Sunday, July 4 will
be our special service celebrating freedom in the 10 AM service and a
church-wide cook-out at 5:00PM. The
cook-out will be at the Defeated Creek Campground Pavilion. The church will provide hamburgers and hot
dogs and the fixings. Everyone is asked
to bring a side dish, chip, or desert to share together. You may also want to bring soft drinks and a
camp chair.
Please be praying for Revival
Services on July 17-20 with Pastor Elijah Wanje from Ridgeways Baptist Church
in Nairobi, Kenya. We will also have an
emphasis to reach out to all our church members with encouragement and
strength.
Children’s Church for 4 year
olds through 1st grade will begin on Sunday, July 4 during the 10 AM
morning service. Children’s Church will
meet in the Preschool area.
The church Patriotic Day
Cookout will be Sunday, July 4 at 5:00 PM at the Defeated Creek Campground
Pavilion. Bring a dish to go with
hamburgers and hotdogs.
This Sunday morning, July
4 at 8:30 AM, we will host the Defeated Creek Campground service at the
Campground pavilion.
This is a big week as we
serve the Lord in our community. Wear
your Summer mission shirt and be ready to share the hope and peace you have in
Jesus. Be blessed as you are a blessing
to others,
Bro. Tim
