Help and Hope in Jesus’ Name
As Hurricane Ian has stormed across Florida leaving great destruction in its wake, I know you have prayed. As recovery begins, now is the time to help those in need.
Cash contributions are an immediate way to help. I recommend that you make gifts through Send Relief, the compassion and disaster relief arm of the North American Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention.
You can be assured that your gifts will provide immediate help and hope in Jesus’ name.

New Overseer Leadership
At our meeting on Tuesday night, September 20, our Overseers elected new officers. For the coming church year, Jonathan Moore will be the Chairman, and B.J. Fair will be the Secretary of the Board.
I look forward to working with these new leaders, and I know that you will join me in praying the Lord’s favor and wisdom for them and all of our Overseers.
I am very grateful for the strong leadership partnerships that have long characterized our church – all for the good of the body and for the glory of God!
Your Pastor and Friend,
