9-11 Prayer Rally. Come join us in praying for our nation and for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. We will pray for our country, state and local leaders. We will also pray for God's mercy and grace for the Church, that we may be able to honor Him and be obedient to His call and purpose for us.

Our hope for the future of our country should not lie in just electing officials who agree with us nor in

government policies to our liking. The hope of our country rests on God, through His Church, making the difference in this world as we live and proclaim the Good News that is Jesus Christ. The Gospel should inform our prayers and participation in the civic and political processes.

We will meet in the Fellowship Hall at 6:00 pm. Come and pray with us.

Billy Graham Outreach Training & Prayer. Would you pray about being a part of the Billy Graham Outreach in November? We will be taking part in this, with other churches in San Angelo, and around the country. It will be done through the BodyLife home groups that we have.

There will be a training and time of prayer with other San Angelo churches on Saturday, September 21, from 8:30 am – 11:00 am at Hillcrest Baptist Church. Lakan

Join us for our next Spruce Up Day! Saturday, September 14th 8AM-Noon

Join us as we “spruce up” our facilities in preparation for our 60th Anniversary.

Come at 7:45 for donuts and coffee. Stay after noon for pizza.

Help us clean, paint, repair, beautify! Bring paint brushes, rollers, and other tools.

Come join the fun!

What YOU can do to help:

We have as our honored guest speaker, Dr. Paige Patterson, president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Of course we want to share a generous honorarium with him as well as being sure to have comfortable accommodations for him while he is with us.

We will be serving a church breakfast and also a delicious catered lunch on Sunday, Oct. 13th.

We are advertising our celebration locally and sending invitations by mail to former staff and members who have moved away. All of this does require funding. That is where you come in! If you wish to make a donation to help fund our 60th Anniversary Celebration over and above your regular tithes and offerings, please indicate that it is for “60th Ann.” on your check or envelope.

Please prayerfully consider what the Lord would have you give toward this momentous occasion. There are sign up sheets in the foyer and in your Sunday school rooms so you can register for this occasion.

Given to Date for 60th Anniversary Fund: $1505.00
