Announcements for March 2-9-08

Communion--We will be celebrating our salvation (past, present and future!) in Jesus Christ during our Communion Service, “Good Friday” evening at 7pm. If you know Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord, please make effort to attend this important service with us and use this service as a reminder to confess your sins to the Lord and come before Him with a pure heart. If you do not know Christ as your Savior, you are welcome to join us for the evening, but we ask you simply observe, rather than participate.

Baptism--We have a wonderful opportunity to join with other churches in the community for a corporate baptism service (see insert). If you desire to confess and proclaim Jesus Christ as your Savior, baptism is one form which He has commanded. If you have professed Christ as your Savior but have not obeyed Him in baptism, we urge you to strongly consider why not? If you are interested in being baptized, or would like to talk with someone further about why you should consider baptism, please call the office (547-0065) to arrange an appointment.

Daniel and Teressa Pierce--Be in prayer for the Pierces this month as Daniel preaches at Appalachian Baptist Church. This month will give the church a chance to see their hearts as well as allow Daniel and Teressa to gauge if the church would be a good fit. Also, please continue to pray that God give them wisdom as they assess how much they can take on while they try to support Dan, Elizabeth and Will. (You can continue to keep posted on Elizabeth’s status by checking elizabethpierce.blogspot.com).
