IN THIS ISSUE B IRCHM A N B A PTI ST C H U R C H 10.22.14 02 03 03 CHILDREN After Hours is this Friday evening. TMS WEEKEND Get signed up to help Raceway Ministries. LIVEWIRES Monthly meeting is tomorrow at 11:00am. PASTOR’S PROLOGUE T his week is Engage Week throughout our church. This is where we are encouraging as many people as possible to engage others with the Gospel of Christ. Last Tuesday our College/Priority Young Adults had an Engage Day. I am told that over 100 gospel conversations took place. The gospel was shared at many times in many places. Remember that evangelism has been described as simply “one beggar telling another beggar where to find bread.” Someone loved you enough to share the Gospel with you. Now let’s pass it on. I look forward to seeing you this Sunday in Bible study and worship. Please invite a friend to come with you. OCTOBER 31 • 5:30-7:00PM Trunk R’ Treat is just around the corner! We need your TRUNK!
