August 4th
: Message: “Family Discipleship”
God intends for the family to be the first and foremost context for dis-
cipleship.
God wants families of all kinds - families with young children and
teens, empty nest families, single parent families, and singles - to be
healthy environments for spiritual growth. Dr. Bowden will encourage us as he directs us through
Scriptures focused on discipleship within the family.

God has brought into our church family. Please bring a finger food to share. Our hostess committee
will provide beverages.

Ministry Celebration!
Happy New Year! On August 1st our new church year
begins. Our Sunday School teachers and workers have
committed to a new year of ministry. Our Wednesday night
teachers and leaders have done the same. Similarly, the
workers serving on our 32 Committees have committed
themselves to serve in this new church year. “Shout outs”
go to each person who has volunteered to serve this year
and to the Nominating Committee and Committee on
Committees for recruiting these servants. We are truly a
God-blessed church to have so many faithful men and
women loving and serving Jesus and His Church!
I’d say that’s worth celebrating! I’d say we ought to rejoice
in God’s goodness to our church. We need to celebrate God
providing FBC Headland with godly and quality men and
women who love their church and eagerly serve! I’d say we
ought to raise the roof about this! I’d say we ought to throw
a party!
So….that’s exactly what we’re planning for Sunday night,
August 25th! I can see it now! A crowded Ministry Center
filled with all our ministry workers. A fish fry with all the
trimmings! A celebration of God’s goodness to our church
as witnessed through all our various ministries. Joyous
fellowship with our church family. Entertainment that’s
second to none. And a really, really, really short word from
the pastor – like really brief! Hooray!
In the weeks to come you will hear more about this special
evening and how you can reserve your spot. I hope you’ll
mark your calendar and help us celebrate the ministries and
ministry workers of our church to the glory of God!
Gotta go – they’re calling me to help with the balloons!
Something about hot air?
