Remembering 9-11 Hosted by the Pace Family The events of Sept. 11, 2001 will be remembered and the heroism of
emergency service personnel honored at a special 9/11 ceremony here at
First Baptist Church this Saturday at 2:00 PM. Based on the theme “To
Serve and Protect” the event is designed as a time of reflection, with
attendees encouraged to share what 9/11 means to them. |

 Dear Church Family, Grace and peace be yours today through fellowship with Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior! September greetings to you from your older and hopefully wiser pastor. I want to thank you for all the birthday wishes and cards and a special “Thank you” to the awesome group of men that presented me with my deer mount. It looks great in my office! Everyone is invited to stop by and see my first deer! I want to remind you of our 24 hour prayer vigil this coming Saturday September 11th from 9am till 9am Sunday morning. Even as I write this I received a letter from a pastor in Washington state who is concerned for our country and encouraging churches to join in prayer. It is evident everywhere we look that we are in need of a great moving of God’s Spirit upon our nation, community, church and individual lives. I ask that you seriously consider this opportunity to join together to pray for these matters, especially that God’s Spirit would move within our church! We need His healing, encouraging, convicting, reconciling touch that all the world will know that He is God! Lifting Him Up with You, Bro. David * * * * * Women Reaching Women Women in Prayer Women in Fellowship Women Learning Women UNLEASHED!! Women: Come Join Us!
