Baptist Church

Maplewood

Our Adult IV Sunday School class is hosting a “movie night” for our

church & community. We’ll enjoy the documentary - Monumental. It

is the story of America’s beginnings and is the true story of Kirk

Cameron’s adventure across Europe and the U.S. as he seeks to

discover America’s true “national treasure” – the people, places, and

principles that made America the freest, most prosperous and

generous nation the world has ever known.

Long regarded as “the land of opportunity”, there’s no question the

tiny band of religious outcasts who founded this country hit upon a

formula for success that went way beyond what they could have

imagined. How else can you explain the fact that they established a

nation that has become the best example of civil, economic and

religious liberty the world has ever known? What formula did they

discover? What motivated them to come here in the first place?

More importantly, how can we apply these same foundational truths today? Help us spread the word!!

Saturday, Oct 31st Bring your car, truck, motorcycle, golf cart or scooter and

decorate its trunk or tailgate or simply decorate yourself!

Bring a lawn chair for yourself and maybe a lantern. We’re

collecting bags of candy to give away as treats for the kids.

Look for the box in the Narthex. Mark your calendars and

let’s make an eternal impact upon our community for Christ.

Invite your friends and family to an incredible night of fellowship as we reach

out into our community and create a ‘safe alternative’ for our kids to enjoy!

Observe

the

Lord’s Supper

A film based on an inspiring real

life story about love and unity

in a school torn by racism

and hate in the 1970s.

In 1973, a spiritual awakening

captured the heart of nearly

every player of the Woodlawn

High School football team,

including its coach.

Their dedication to love and unity

in a school filled with racism

and hate leads to the largest

high school football game

ever played in the torn city of

Birmingham, Alabama, and the

rise of its first African American

superstar, Tony Nathan.

In theaters nationwide - Oct 16th!!

THANK YOU for accepting the challenge issued by our youth to “Stock the Shelves” at Yadkin Christian Ministries. Your willingness to ’do something’ will show those less fortunate within our community - there are folks who do care & desire to share Christ’s love...ultimately fulfilling the words of Christ in Matthew 25 “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me!”

2016 Ministry Budget The Finance Committee will be finalizing our 2016 Ministry Budget soon and copies will be available by Sunday - October 25th for you to review. It will be presented & discussed at our

October Church Conference - Wednesday - October 28th at 6:30 pm. We will have a special called conference on Sunday - November 1st - immediately following our

morning service to adopt the proposed budget. If you have questions, please see HL or Waddell.
