Bloomfield Baptist Family:

I hope this Christmas season is a wonderful one for you and your family as you celebrate the birth of Christ our King!

As you make plans for those last minute Christmas gifts, I would like to suggest a gift for the men in your life. Consider sending them to the upcoming Johnny Hunt Men’s Confer-ence in Woodstock, GA (north of Atlanta).

On the weekend of February 8th-9th, I will be traveling with a group of men from our church to attend this life changing weekend. We will leave Friday morning and return Saturday night. During our time at the conference, we will be chal-lenged to be the men of God that we have been called to be.

The cost for the conference is $100, which includes the conference fee, travel & lodging. In order to secure a spot, men need to sign up and pay the first $50 by December 30th. A sign up sheet is available at the church Welcome Center. You can also find more information about the conference by visiting http://www.johnnyhuntmensconference.com.

I hope that the men of Bloomfield Baptist Church will join me for this special weekend!

Reaching Bloomfield with You, Pastor Richard
