THANK YOU: To Athens Drive Baptist Church: Sorry for the late response. We wish to thank the members of Athens Drive Baptist Church for their generous monetary gift for our family. It was received at a time it was most needed. The twins and the rest of the family are doing well. We wish we could have been there in person to thank you all. Joe and Lindsey Bielby
THANK YOU: Thank you so much for your donation for our annual food drive for Baptist Children’s Homes. We truly appreciate all your love and support. Cameron Boys Camp Baptist Children’s Home

THE MASTER’S MEN, a male, a capella ensemble, will be our musical guests for the fellowship meal NEXT SUNDAY at 6:00 P.M. It’s been a long time since they were here and I know we will really enjoy hearing them sing again. It will also be fun to fellowship with them during the meal. Please sign the sheet that’s out front so Bobbi will know how many to plan for. I hope we can have a really good number of folks present to hear our musical guests, and to support our Hospitality Committee who always prepares delicious meals.
