September is here! Schools are in session, church services and ministries are starting, Autumn is on its way.  Where has this year gone???

This month, September, we will have two special projects.  The North Carolina Mission offering (or NC Baptist State Missions) is usually collected during this month.  This offering supports the ministries of Baptist on Missions, including disaster response, church plantings, mission camps, associational projects and mobilization ministry projects, such as dental ministry.  Our goal for this offering is $900 and will be collected during the month of September.

Also, we will be doing a Food Roundup for the Baptist Children’s Homes of North Carolina.  This is the annual project usually held in April, but due to the COVID 19 restrictions, it was cancelled until now.  There is a “needs” sheet located outside the sanctuary and a collection container will be in the church foyer.  Our church is usually very generous in providing food and paper goods for the Food Roundup; I hope this year will be the same.

Other special events this month will be a resuming of WMU meetings the first Wednesday of each month.  Also, Mission Friends will start meeting September 6^th during the morning worship hour.  This is for children ages 3-first grade.  It is good to be able to restart these ministries and regain some sense of normalcy during these trying times.  God be praised for His goodness and faithfulness to His church and believers.

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!
