this weekend @ sfbc - February 14th




SFBC Family,

Snow, cold, no school, and no activities last night at church, makes for a strange week. Wednesday are such a busy time of ministry and I really miss it when we have to cancel them. I hope you miss them too. A lot of ministry happens on Wednesday nights each week; a light meal is provided at 5:30pm, AWANA our children's ministry runs from 6pm - 8pm during this time children ages preschool - 5th grade spend time singing, learning Bible verses, playing games, participate in counsel / teaching time, and missions. Adults have a time of prayer and a short Bible Study from 6pm - 7pm and our students and several adults worship together from 7pm - 8pm. Lots of activity and lots of ministry. If you haven't attended Wednesday in a while, try it this week, I bet you will like them and like me miss them when you don't get to go. You don't know what you got until it gone, that's true with Wednesday nights. It is a blessing to see our church family so engaged in using their talents for Christ.

I want to encourage you to attend and bring a guest on Sunday, February 21st. We have a very unique opportunity to host a DOVE award winning couple from Nashville. Terry and Barbi Franklin have lead worship around the world, written several Southern Gospel Songs, and will be leading worship at the Kentucky Baptist Evangelism Conference on February 22-23. We get to host them for a Sunday Morning concert as they will sing and share about their family and marriage. It is a great event to invite a guest to attend with you.

Find it Here is an initiative being lead by the Kentucky Baptist Convention to visit every home in Kentucky. During March, we will be distributing invitation bags in our community to invite people to church. These will be bags of information about our church and include a presentation of the gospel. You are going to hear more about this project in the next few weeks. Pray for our community and state as churches begin to engage their neighbors by inviting them to attend.

Don't forget Sunday is Valentines Day!

see you this weekend @ SFBC!
Bro Norm
