Not Your Typical Announcement Blog
I just wanted to begin this week's edition of the announcements with something a little different.
I want you to know that I love you, and I count it a privilege to be your pastor. I don't take lightly the opportunity I have to share the Word of God with you every week. Nothing lasts forever, so while I have this opportunity I will embrace it fully, and I hope you'll come prepared every Sunday to hear from our Lord.
You are loved. You are also prayed for. I want you to know that the work of the ministry is not accomplished in human strength, power, or wisdom. It is accomplished by the Spirit of God through prayer. I am praying for you and for our church corporate, that God would do great things through us. I am also constantly praying that we would experience Jesus every Sunday and see him exalted in our midst.
On to the announcement list...
Vacation Bible School - We are looking to build a lead team for VBS. We are going to do the same VBS as last year, Mega Sports Camp. The dates for VBS are June 4-8. Please let Anthony or Mark know if you would like to be part of the lead team.
Sola -This Sunday we continue our sermon series covering the "5 Solas" of the Reformation. The word "sola" comes from Latin and means "alone". These 5 statements listed below were the theological truths that Protestant Reformation was built around, as they attempted to return the church to its Biblical roots.
Naco, AZ / Mexico Mission Trip - The dates are June 9-16. This trip will focus mostly on children's and youth ministry and a little on some light construction projects.

We will also rerun the same VBS in the evenings at Naco Baptist on the Arizona side of the border.
Approximate trip cost is $400. Sign up on the bulletin board. We will purchase plane tickets by the end of March.
Membership Discovery - This is for anyone interested in knowing more information about FBC. If you're wanting to become a member of FBC, then you need to attend this class. March 25th at 5:00pm.
