The weekday preschool is in the process of enrolling K-3 and K-4 children for the upcoming 2015-2016 school year. Your child must be 3 or 4 years of age by September 1, 2015 to qualify for enrollment in either class. (We do make exceptions.) The child must also be potty trained. A flat registration fee of $165.00 is due at the time of enrollment. If there is enough interest in a 2 year class on Tuesdays and Thursday's, from 9:00-12:00 PM, we will consider that as well. Please contact Lee at [email protected] if you are interested in putting your child in a K-2 class. If there is enough interest, we will explore that option. ATTENTION PARENTS WITH CHILDREN …… Ages: K5‐2nd Grade We are inviting your child/children to join us for KIDZ CITY! Your child will hear a “Kid Friendly” Bible Study during worship Service. Children will meet in the chapel outside the Worship Center. Make sure you pick your child up from his or her Sunday School class whereby they can enjoy the first part of worship with their family. They will then be dismissed and go to Kidz City during the worship hour. Make sure to pick your child/children up following worship service in the Chapel.

Cindy Blake and the rest of the Discipleship Pastor Search Committee are pleased to bring him before you for consideration to be our new Discipleship Pastor. Ryan is an impressive young man, and he has a passion for moving people closer to Jesus. He is energetic and creative, and his wife (Emily) is truly his “better half.” Please read his bio and be in prayer for Ryan, Emily, and Elliott as they are searching for God’s next step in their lives. This is a salaried position that is included in this year’s budget. This will not be an addition to or an increase in our current budget. Fountain Inn First Baptist Church desperately needs a minister who will dedicate himself to increasing our discipleship and education efforts. He will initially give the majority of his time and focus to our nursery and children’s areas, but he will also be working with adult Sunday School teachers and other discipleship leaders. This Thursday night (May 21) at 7:00, all of our Sunday School teachers are invited to meet him in the fellowship hall to hear his vision for FIFBC. On Saturday night (May 23) from 5:30-7:00, the community is invited to meet Ryan, Emily, and Elliott in the fellowship hall. Please make plans to come. Feel free to bring a friend or neighbor. Next Sunday morning (May 24), he will speak in our worship service, and a motion will be made that we hire him. God is doing good things in our church, and bringing a Discipleship Pastor on-board is a big next step. It will increase our reach and capacity, and breathe life into a ministry area that is sadly under resourced. I give many thanks to the search committee, and I appreciate your patience through the process.
