Sunday School Lesson
If you have not already done so, today is a good day to begin studying for Sunday.
Another Scripture
“Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.” 1 Peter 4:10
The Georgia Barnette Offering will be celebrated all through September, a month of special prayers and offerings for mission work in Louisiana. Gifts can be given to any Baptist Church with “Georgia Barnette Offering” written on the check and envelope. The state goal for 2027 is $1,800,000. Every gift counts!
That offering will be the focus of the WMU meeting on Sept. 12.
If you would like to help “set up” and “clean up” for that meeting, you can contact me.
All girls and ladies are invited to participate.
Have a wonderful Thursday! Help make today great for someone!
