THURSDAY, JUNE 18 11:00AM - 7:00PM FAMILY LIFE CENTER Children’s Choir Musical Sunday, June 7 - 6:00pm Charming and witty, this superb children's musical captivates the heart through its memorable melodies and humorous dialogue creatively telling the story of Elijah. From his confrontation with Ahab and Jezebel through his journey in the desert, Elijah shows his faith in the God who provides. Concluding with one of the most dramatic moments in the Old Testament, Elijah asks God to send down fire upon the altar at Mt. Carmel. There, the people of Israel see the power of the true and living God. ICE CREAM SUNDAES Following the musical… kids will celebrate their production and parents will get some valuable information about the summer, including details about Backyard Bible Club and Vacation Bible School. (ICE CREAM FOR KIDS AND PARENTS!) First Baptist Church has been selected to host Operation Blood Drive for Haywood County and all counties west. Operation Blood Drive is the largest blood drive of the year in Western North Carolina. During summer months, donations of blood decrease while the need for blood actually increases. Each year, WLOS-TV13 sponsors this effort to replenish blood supplies. The goal for the FBC portion of this blood drive is 100 units! This is an incr edible outr each opportunity for our church and YOUR HELP IS URGENTLY NEEDED! In order to help save lives by meeting our donations goal, we need volunteers to help with registration; to help in the “canteen” area; and to help pick up donated food items. We do not have a lot of time to fill these positions so PLEASE CALL THE CHURCH OFFICE TODAY (456-9465). THANK YOU! Transforming Prayer... From Dr. Prince... Sharing Christ’s love... We had a great response to our “Catch Up, Double Up” offering last Sunday! We received more than $26,000 in our offering, which is far more than we normally receive on a fifth Sunday! I’m grateful for the way in which our congregation responded to this appeal. If you weren’t here last Sunday or you haven’t had the opportunity to participate, you still have time to be part of this special effort. Please make you special offering sometime in the next few weeks. Waynesville Middle School Partnership... This coming Sunday, June 7 will be Youth Sunday. On this Sunday, our students will lead us in worship in all three of our worship services. Youth Sunday gives them a special opportunity to exercise their spiritual gifts and grow into church leadership. Dan Smith, our Minister to Families, does a great job leading our students, and he’ll be working with our students as they lead us on this special day. On Youth Sunday, we’ll also recognize our high school graduates. This year, we have a number of seniors who’ll be moving on to other things next year. Please be sure to offer them your love, prayers, and congratulations! Soon school will end for the summer, and our Wednesday and Sunday evening children’s ministries will take a summer break. But a lot of important children’s ministries will take place in the next couple of months! Among them are Backyard Bible Club and Vacation Bible School. In Backyard Bible Club, we’ll go to neighborhoods in our community where there are lots of children, and hold a Bible club experience. We hope that many of these children will attend our Vacation Bible School. As we look forward to these summer children’s ministries, I ask you to do several things. First, pray for our children’s coordinators, Myra Clemmons and Emily Fleenor, along with our volunteer workers. Second, pray for the children and adults we hope to reach through these ministries. Our priority is on reaching people who don’t go to church. Pray that we’ll be able to reach people we aren’t reaching. Third, volunteer to help in these efforts. If you can’t volunteer, try to give a little extra in your offering this summer to help pay for these ministries. See you Sunday! Robert LAST WEEK OF COLLECTION!!!

This summer, “Let’s Pack the Pantry!” Our church made a commitment many years ago to assist Haywood Christian Ministry’s Food Pantry by collecting pasta on the first Sunday of every month. A few months ago, we changed our collection items to “staples,” such as flour, sugar, cornmeal, rice, macaroni, noodles, dried beans, etc. instead of canned pasta. Thus far, we have only collected a couple of bags of sugar and flour. Let’s join together in this local mission effort and bring one of the above items on any Sunday during the summer! We can make an impact in the number of people who are hungry. We are not collecting for WMS, so let’s double our efforts for HCM! Serving...
