supplies, seeds, rice & beans, make Gospel bead bracelets, and prepare other humanitarian aid for shipment to those in need around the world.  The bus will leave FBC parking lot at 7 AM and return around 8 PM.  Wear closed toe shoes and bring a sack lunch.  We will stop for dinner on the way home.  Please sign up on the ramp bulletin board so plans can be made.  Even if you prefer to drive on your own, please put your name on the sign-up sheet and indicate you will be taking your own car.  This is a great outing for families; children and parents can work side by side.

 

Ladies: Our summer Bible Study begins Wednesday night, June 1.  We will be studying “Breathe” by Priscilla Shirer who will lead us in
examining margins and boundaries that God enables us to put around things we enjoy so that we will never become slaves again to activities and busyness. These things swallow up our rest and peace.  Let’s focus on how we can breathe and build margins into our lives for God.  Please join us for this encouraging 5 week study during the month of June to build a closer relationship with God and with other like-minded women. See you then!!!   (It’s Summer ~ plug in when you can; don’t worry if you have to miss a few sessions).
