Here's your verse to practice this week....

I will bless those who bless you; and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.
Genesis 12:3

Question of the week:

What are some ways to show we trust God to be our guide?

See you Sunday!

Prayer Focus for September & October

During the months of September and October we are praying for our sister church in Rosarito, Mexico. Please join us in praying for their needs listed below which have just come in from Pastor Enrique.

CHRIST THE KING BAPTIST CHURCH, ROSARITO, BAJA CALIFORNIA

1. With the rains that we have had this season, the roof of our children's classroom is very bad and everything inside is wet. We need to replace it with a new roof.

2. From the water that came in through the children's classroom, the wood floor is in very bad shape. It needs replaced, 4x8x3/4 boards. The floor is the roof of another classroom.

3. We are praying for a vehicle to pick up people so that they can come to the services. [Enrique's church picks up people for church who have no vehicle and are either too old or live too far away to walk. At times they have had a working van or a bus, which greatly facilitates this.]

4. For a group to come and visit us from your church. We love you very much. We miss you. We could use your presence. It would be a great support.

5. That God will supply the means for my wife to travel to Chacala to the pastors' conference this October. I would like her to accompany me as she could use the rest.

*The kids will be making a Bible Story quilt top for Enrique’s church during our service project time (between services). Our offering during these months will go toward the quilting and shipping costs.

We are having a great time in FISHing Crew! We've enjoyed getting caught up with our regulars and getting to know our new kids. As usual, we have amazing volunteers as well. If you haven't been by yet, come see us!

Our Father/Son event for 3rd, 4th and 5th grade boys has been moved to Saturday, October 17th. Mark your calendar - it will be a great morning!

This week we will continue to work on the Bible Story Quilt between services. This is our service project for the fall. After it is completed and quilted, it will be sent to our sister church in Mexico to help tell kids about Jesus.

Don't forget to work on your verse...

...This is the account of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked with God.

Genesis 6:9

Welcome Back!

FISHing Crew is back! We are excited for a new year. Come join us as we walk through the whole Bible. You will learn the whole story of how God's grace and love has provided a way to Heaven. It's amazing how much He loves us! We will still be using the 14 C's from last year. You can review the "C" words in a previous blog.

See you Sunday!

This week's memory verse:

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

Genesis 1:27
