NORTH AMERICAN MISSION BOARD - 2019 Missionaries are grateful for all that you do to support and encourage
them. This week during your prayer time, please pray for Sam and

COMMUNITY FOOD PANTRY The Community Food Pantry continues to give out bags every
Thursday with nutritious staples to individuals and families who live in
Winn Parish. They accomplish this task through the work of volunteers
from all over our parish. They operate solely through gifts and
donations from churches, individuals, businesses, and clubs – without
any government funds. Along with food items, they now offer eggs
donated every week from a local business, school uniforms, Christian
books and devotionals, New Testaments, homemade jellies and jams,
an opportunity to pray with a minister, and enhanced choices on the
“Lagniappe” table. Thank you for keeping this local ministry alive.

A Note from Pastor Danny Keyes I have some inside information about our new pastor. This information did not come
from the search committee because that information is confidential at this point,
which is as it should be. I know this, OUR NEXT PASTOR IS A FISHERMAN.
Before all you avid fishermen get worked up about taking him to your favorite “hot
spots” and some others of you start imagining him spending too much time on the
water hear me out. I will be shocked and disappointed if he is not a fisherman in the
context of Matthew 4:19 when Jesus told Peter and Andrew “Follow me and I will
make you fishers of men”.
In a sermon I preached here a few years ago I talked about two distinct personalities
a church takes on. One is called “keepers of the aquarium”. That church spends
almost all its time and resources’ making sure the church is safe, comfortable, and
clean for its members. Clean the glass, change the water, feed the fish, check the
lighting, make sure all the fish are happy. The other kind of church is called “fishers
of men”. Most of the time and resources of this church are focused on those beyond
the walls of the church, those outside the “aquarium”. Unlike an aquarium where the
owner picks the kind of fish they want, this church trusts the leadership of Jesus
through the Holy Spirit to lead them to the “fish”. There are all kinds of good
fishing spots for our church. Our own families, neighbors, friends, coworkers, even
folks we don’t know, or some folks we wouldn’t like to spend much time with.
Some will have different interests, different backgrounds, different colors, and a lot
of other differences, but the one thing they will have in common with each of us is a
need for the grace of God through Jesus.
I’m convinced our new pastor will be a fisherman, and he will invite and challenge
us to go “fishing” with him. This is in fact, the calling and mission of the church and
all believers. Helping people find and follow Jesus is the basic task of any church.
Matthew 28:19 says “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit”. We might as well start
checking out our “fishing gear” and make sure it is all in good condition and maybe
even make some trips to the fishing hole even before Bro. Whoever shows up.
See you in church Sunday,

My Reflections of a Busy Weekend Why I love FBC Winnfield, our people. On 02/02/2020, you may have
noticed the over 80 youth attending worship, but you may not have saw the
months of preparation required by our youth committee to make it happen.
You may not have noticed that our members collected over 80 containers of
soup for hungry children in our community as part of the kids on mission
Souper Bowl of Caring. You may not have noticed that we launched two new
ministry opportunities to serve families. Our preteen and youth ministry
members have started volunteering as Extended Session assistants and will
serve one Sunday a quarter. We also began our Buddy Ministry to assist
special need students in attending Sunday School and Worship.
We are also excited to announce the launch of our Live Stream church service
that will allow you to be able to view our services from your phone tablet or
computer when you can’t be with us in
person. https://www.fbcwinn.com/live-stream/
Our church family is “Relentless” in their pursuit to reach our community
with the gospel. I’m so glad to be able to call them my church family. I hope
you will join us in person or via the live stream this week.
