This Sunday morning we will recognize the High School Graduating Class of 2014. These young adults have worked hard to accomplish a goal set before them twelve years ago. As a church family we want to congratulate each of you and encourage you in your future endeavors. Not only are there those graduating High School but several of our congregation have recently graduated college. To these individuals we also say congratulations and best wishes in the days ahead. The Bainbridge High School Baccalaureate Service will be held this Sunday evening at Bainbridge High School. As is our custom, we will not have services here on Sunday evening that we might attend this community worship event. I always enjoy the Baccalaureate Service and look forward to attending this week. School will be out next week and everyone already has a busy schedule set up for the summer. I hope you enjoy your summer but will remember to be faithful in your attendance and giving to the Lord. God does not take the summer off. Let us not forget Him during this season of the year. I look forward to seeing you in Sunday School and Church this Sunday. Paul

MIGRANT MINISTRY NEEDS HELP During the summer months, Decatur County has hundreds of farm laborers who come to harvest crops grown by local farmers. To support the farmers and laborers, we have teamed up with state and local teams who also labor to meet the needs of individuals and families. A variety of volunteers provide medical, dental, healthcare education, translation as well as food and clothing assistance. In addition to hosting a meal for all the volunteers, FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH has provided clothing. Workers, clothing, and cash is needed in order to help all who need it. See the Missions Bulletin Board across from the office for specific detail on how you can help.
