Coming Soon! Vacation Bible School!
We, as a congregation, are excited to welcome our new pastor,
Reverend Randall Bryan Gunter. Bryan and his wife Amy, and
children, Madison and Talmadge, are in the process of relocating from
Blackshear Georgia. Bryan has been working for the glory of God on
our behalf since January 1, 2017. His family however, is still in
Blackshear.
Continue to pray for the will of God to be working in their lives during
this period of transition. May God Bless you and your family as you
have been a blessing to us.
This year our vacation bible school will be held from
June 19-23. Our theme this year is Galactic Starveyors
and our scripture focus is Colossians 1:15-16
!! Welcome Pastor Bryan Gunter !!
Happy Spring!

Happy Spring Everyone!
There were 12 ladies that took a firearm safety class on Saturday, February 4th. We all felt very confi-
dent when all was completed. It was truly a great time of learning and fun.
We raised $520.00 at our March 12th Soup/Sandwich luncheon to offset the cost of the upcoming 2017
Women's Conference. I want to shout out a big '"Thank you" to all who made this possible.
We as Women on Missions are involved in a new ministry called "Moms in Prayer". If you would like
information on this new ministry, please contact me and I can give you the information you need.
Our Priscilla Shirer Simulcast is this Saturday, April 8th at 10:00 am at the church in the sanctuary.
Please come if you can. I know you will be blessed.
Blessings,
Rhonda Smith, WOM Director
