MEN’S RETREAT: Pastor Jeff would like you to join him for the High Point Camp Men’s Retreat on September 11-12. You will laugh a lot as well as focus on the important spiritual aspects of your life. You’ll have a chance to get away from the stresses of the daily grind and hang out with the guys! The speaker will be Don McCall from Summit University (formerly known as Baptist Bible College). Don has helped a number of churches through his ministry of Church Revitalization. Also, Saturday morning activities include a skeet shoot, home run derby, “closest to the pin” golf competition, zipline and more. Cost is $60 if registered by 9/1. Register online at http://www.hpcamp.org/camps/registration/. Or you can give your check to Pastor Dave and he will get you registered. Sign up at the main bulletin board if you are at all interested so we can keep you up to date and we don’t leave you behind. We will meet here at FBC at 4:30PM on Sept. 11 to carpool to High Point. We expect to be back to FBC about 6PM Saturday.

LADIES BOOK CLUB: The next Book Club get-together will be held on Monday, September 14 at 7PM at the home of Marie Swaye (68 Marlyn Dr, Elkton, MD 21921 (410) 398-3175) featuring Snow on the Tulips by Liz Tolsma.

PULPIT FLOWERS: You can donate fresh pulpit flowers on any given Sunday by signing up for the Sunday(s) of your choice at the main bulletin board. Flowers can be in celebration of a birthday, anniversary, or any special date, or in memory of a loved one.

WELCOME: You have chosen a wonderful Sunday to worship with us at Faith Baptist Church! It’s still summer. Family vacations may continue but our pastors and ministry staff are here. The music and message are intended to help us focus our attention on the Lord Jesus Christ. Would you allow the meditation of your heart and mind set aside the issues of life and listen for what God has for you today? God has something special for you today!

HONORED GUESTS: You may be visiting, but we want you to feel like family. Family members care about each other. As such, how can we pray for you? Would you please fill out a communication card, including how we can pray for you and/or your family? We have experienced God answering prayer. We have a team of people who would like to be praying for you. For your convenience, we have attached a communication card as part of this bulletin. Fill it out, tear it off and hand it to an usher, put the card in the offering plate when it is passed, drop it off at the welcome center, or hand it to a pastor.
