Our new Family Life Center is now complete and we have started to reap the benefits of such a fine facility. There are so many people to thank, because the construction of such a building requires a collaborative effort. Many of you sacrificed untold hours of your personal time to help. So, on behalf of ROBC may I once again say, thank you. On Friday evening, February 6th we host our first big event in the FLC when the “Kingdom Heirs,” will perform a live concert. This is expected to be a huge event. Here is how you can help: (1) We are not selling tickets; instead the singers are receiving a love offering that will be received at the concert; therefore, realize you’re attending a concert and think about the usual cost of a ticket and please give accordingly; (2) If at all possible carpool to the church. We expect a crowd so the fewer cars the better; (3) Pray for the concert and especially the “Kingdom Heirs,” remember they don’t just entertain; they share the good news about Jesus. Someone might be saved that night and furthermore, this is a grand opportunity to invite a lost friend or colleague to attend. Finally, be thankful for the blessings of song and music. Everyone has music preferences; music is our love language as it’s expressed to God. So, whether it is gospel music, choral music, contemporary music or singing in the shower what are you saying to Christ? Hopefully, it is “thank you Jesus for saving my soul.” We sincerely appreciate every expression of care and concern during our mother and grandmother’s sickness and passing. Your prayers and practical acts of kindness sustained us through a difficult summer and fall. Madgie Macklin felt blessed to serve God through Red Oak Baptist Church. May we keep that spirit alive everyday! Dorothy, Audrey & Suzy Pearce Thank you for the recent donation! We are putting it towards travel for Avery’s next surgery in Boston in January. With grateful hearts, The Knight Family (Avery) Thank you for allowing Lighthouse Baptist Church to be the recipient of the 84 hymnals that were no longer being used by Red Oak Baptist Church. We had the opportunity to use them for the first time as a congregation on Sunday, Dec. 7, and what a blessing it was! We sincerely appreciate the gift you have given and we will be using them for some time to come with the full realization that God has used the congregation of ROBC to bless His children. We remember the church in prayers of thanksgiving and pray for His blessings on you and the congregation. Serving Him with Passion, Rev. Allen Williams Thank you for the various donations to our Holiday Project. We are overwhelmed by your giving spirit. With your help and others in the community, our school helped over forty children for Christmas. May God continue to bless each of you. Swift Creek School Staff God bless you and I look forward to seeing you in worship. Welcome to Justin & Lisa Carp and Bill & Sharon Parker who have joined the ROBC family.
