THE MESSENGER Invite Everyone, Invest In People, Impact Eternity
Thanks for the kind messages on my 25th Anniversary as your pastor. It’s been a good quarter-century. Dayna and I thank
God for the privilege to serve as your pastor. Kind of hard to believe. Some asked about a reception. Thanks to our lousy friend, Covid 19, we can’t do that right now. So as I mentioned on Sunday, perhaps in the late fall, we can do a reception for Wallace, Danny, and me since we all get in our 25 by the end of the year.
We are hoping to hear more this week about the Governor’s plan for Phase 2 of reopening. When we get that information and have some time to digest it, we will get the word out to the church family about what that means for us. Please pray for wisdom as we make these deci-sions.
VBS at Home is launching June 28. I’m grateful for our Children’s Team and our Creative Team in putting this together. This is a true combina-tion of the church online, onsite, and on the go. Please use this oppor-tunity, parents and kids, to invite friends to join you through the sum-mer in VBS.
This Sunday, we are back in the Sermon on the Mount. We finish Matthew 6 with a couple of sermons in a series called Dollars and Sense. Jesus explains the relationship kingdom citizens are to have with their possessions. First week: Slave or Master? Second week: Don’t Worry, Be Happy. See you Sunday in the sanctuary or online.
Your Pastor, John

Mask-eraders – 2,623! Our Mask-making ladies have now made 2,623 masks for our church, other churches and many plac-es in our community! Well done Y’all!!! Thank you so much!!! The homemade masks are washable and you can hang them to dry.
Sanitizing our Facilities For your information and peace of mind, our custodi-ans have worked hard to sanitize all restrooms and high touch surfaces throughout our facilities. Fur-thermore, we are having our facilities fogged once a week with a sanitizing mist to make sure all surfaces have been disinfected. Each week we will be sure to sanitize all high touch surfaces. Love, Danny
Fitness / Recreation Ministry We are currently in a holding pattern regarding the Fitness and Sports recreation we can offer. The most recent COVID-19 report
from the governor dictates that we will continue with our current fitness class schedule until further notice. We are thankful to have the Family Life Center open for limited fitness classes and individual workouts! We hope to be able to offer on-campus classes for senior adults and children under 5-years old soon. We need to understand that maintaining these opportuni-ties and moving forward are dependent upon each of us practicing proper hygiene habits, staying home if we feel sick, and the appro-priate government updates. Our FLC hours until further notice: Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays: 7:30 am-6:30 pm Wednesdays, Fridays: 7:30 am-3:30 pm Saturdays: 8:00-10:00 am What is available in this FLC/Fitness phase 2?
• Limited indoor fitness classes
• Limited online live-video fitness classes will continue, mainly for our seniors and RSB fighters on Facebook at FBC Fitness Strong-er than Yesterday.
• Individual workouts, including walking.
• Outdoor walking/jogging trails with optional exercise stations. Please be aware that the state directive requires screening for all staff and participants, and “those who have any of the following characteristics should NOT be allowed to enter:
• Have returned from travel to NY, NJ, CT, New Orleans or over-seas within the last 14 days
• Have had a fever of 100.4°F or greater in the last 2 days
• Have a cough, difficulty breathing, sore throat, or loss of taste or smell
• Had contact with a person known to be infected with COVID-19 within the previous 14 days
• Have compromised immune systems and/or have chronic dis-eases.”
You will not be allowed to join in the fitness activities if you have any of those characteristics noted above. Go to www.fbcrecreation.com, Facebook at FBC Fitness Stronger than Yesterday, or Facebook FBCHS Member to Member for more information, resource links, and updates. Be encouraged, brothers and sisters. God is working. He has been faithful in our past. He is faithful today and tomorrow!
