IGNITE 2018

Men, it’s slowly creeping up on us…a time of great

fellowship, of praising and worshipping our Lord. We

presently have 15 tickets for sale at the discounted price

of $50.50. We will be staying at our usual hotel this year

and the price is $65.00 per man (2 double beds/ $130.00

per room)…add the $12.00 Chick-Fil-a box lunch and for

$127.50, you can secure your event ticket, Saturday

lunch and lodging. Ladies - this makes a great Christmas

gift! Also, I encourage bringing your sons, neighbors and

friends. For more information, please contact Bill Girard

@ 757-353-5461. Note that we increased the number of

rooms to a total of 30. There are only 24 rooms left.

They are not reserved until full payment is received.

Also, this offer has been extended to the Gloucester

Men’s Ministry, so these rooms will sell out soon. Please

don’t wait!

*** Payment for the room and/or ticket must be done

directly to Bill Girard, this being so the room/ticket will

immediately be reserved. We are expecting to sell out

quickly. Checks should be made out to “Petsworth Baptist

Church”.

IMPORTANT- CHURCH CALENDAR CHANGE

We have now moved to an electronic calendar, which can

be found on the church website, the church phone app,

and if need be, you can contact our church secretary Joyce

Blocker if you have any questions about events taking

place at Petsworth. All event requests must go through

Joyce before being added to the calendar, so that she can

verify availability of the resources you are looking to

reserve. These resources include any part of the facility

here at Petsworth, such as the sanctuary, the Youth

Building, the conference room, etc. This also includes

reserving the Van(s) for trips or events. Ministry Leaders,

please take a moment to verify the accuracy of the

calendar for your ministry as of today... thanks!

Want the best seat on Sunday mornings? Get involved with

the audio or the video ministry here at Petsworth Baptist

Church. In a short period of time, you could be working on

the video or sound systems. There is no need to be an

expert to join. We will train you! This gives you a chance to

be a part of the ministry and not have to be on the podium.

Contact Don Gough (goughd@cox.net) for audio or Bill

Girard (bill4christ@gmail.com) for video or drop by the

booth after a service for more information

A HUGE Thank You!

To all that contributed to putting the Christmas drama on, a

huge thank you! It could not have been pulled off without

the over 25 people whom helped build the stage, supplied

and/or built props, spent many hours learning their lines,

and just did so much more…God was glorified because of

all the volunteers that made this “Gospel Presentation”

through the Drama Ministry such a success! May you all

have a blessed Christmas!

If you ordered a poinsettia and haven’t paid yet, please do

so by Friday, December 22, 2017. The cost is $6.00

Thankyou

commandment with promise: ‘that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”

Epheshians 6:1-3

“Children, obey your parents, in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the Lord. Fathers, do not provoke your children,

lest they become discouraged.”Colossians 3:20,21

“Listen to your father who gave you life, and don’t despise your mother when she is old.”

Proverbs 23:22

“Rise in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly and revere your God.”

Leviticus 19:32

“I have lived over 60 years, and I have learned one thing if I have learned nothing else – no man or woman who

dishonors his father or mother ever prospers.”D.L. Moody
