“Hark the Herald Angels Sing”, “Silver Bells”, Hallmark endless Christmas movies-it’s December and Jesus’ birthday; Christmas will be here soon.

December’s special offering is our annual Lottie Moon offering for our IMB missionaries.  Our goal this year is $6500 which we collected last year, plus, so I know we can meet this goal.  There will be envelopes outside the sanctuary for your offerings.  Also, Lottie’s Post Office is opened again this year.  This is a way to send Christmas cards to people in the church without going to the USPS.  We do ask that you contribute “stamp money” which will go toward meeting our Lottie Moon goal.  There will be a box provided for this money.  This should not take the place of your regular special offering gift.  

There is a Children’s Mission Christmas Party December 8^th, 6:00 pm at the Truett Association office.  This will be a time of learning about missions around the world and locally.  Register your child by December 1^st so they will know how many to plan for.  Call 837-5401 to register.

This month will see families getting together, good food, beautiful music, loads of fun and stuff.  Don’t allow Jesus to be pushed out of the Christmas scene.  It’s His birthday and the “Reason for the Season”.  He needs to be first and foremost in all things, not just in December, but everyday that God gives us.

Have a safe, spirit-filled holiday this year.  Be kind to each other with love and compassion.  Merry Christmas!!

Titus 2 Women’s Ministry

We are delighted to announce that the AFBC Titus 2 Women’s Ministry Team is hosting a women’s conference for our church and community on Friday, April 27^th and Saturday, April 28^th.  Sheila Womble, of Planting Seeds to Trees Ministries from Cairo, GA, will be sharing her personal testimony and speaking on the Overflow of God’s Love in our lives as women!  Her guest Malorie Whitley, will be leading worship for the event.

We are seeking volunteers and women from our church who may feel led to share their personal testimony during this event.  We are encouraging you (women and men) to begin praying for this event; that women will attend with open hearts and that God will use both Sheila and Malorie for His glory through the Overflow conference.

We will have a sign-up sheet posted for those who are interested and pre-registration packets in the lobby of our church.  There is also an online registration option found through Facebook.  Cost for attendance is $15 each or two attendees for $10 each as we would like to encourage each attendee to bring a guest!  Food and child care will be provided for women who attend.   Please contact any of the Titus 2 Women’s Ministry Team if you have any questions or would like to volunteer your time or your testimony!
