Dr. Greg McFadden is the senior pastor at First Baptist, Humboldt.

I know you will welcome him back home as he comes to preach our revival on November 1-4. As equally excited as I am to have Brother Greg here, I am looking forward to having John Norville back with us again for our fall revival. Brother John came and led us in worshipping the Lord in song last fall and God used him in an incredible way. Brother John brought in special singers and musicians to enhance the worship service and each person had talent that could only come from God. I am excited to have Brother John back and I anticipate more special music that will bless our hearts and more importantly, glorify God. I hope you will be able to come to each of our revival services and make sure you bring someone with you. We are going to experience God! The annual Trenton Ministerial Alliance Thanksgiving service will be at the African American First Baptist Church on Sunday, November 15 at 6:00 PM. Last year I preached the message at First Presbyterian and churches from all over the community came together and we had a wonderful worship experience. I hope that you will be able to join us for the annual community wide Thanksgiving service to help raise awareness and funds that are necessary for the Trenton Ministerial Alliance as we help those in need in our community. October was Pastor Appreciation month and you went out of your way to let me and my family know how much you love us. I already knew it though. I don’t need a special month, because I feel appreciated everyday by this church. But I want you to know that the feelings are mutual. I appreciate each of you. I think we need to create a church member appreciation month to let me be able to tell you how much my family loves you. Because we do! Serving Him, Brother Chris FROM THE PASTOR

I am so excited about our upcoming fall revival. Hopefully you will receive this newsletter before the revival services

begin. Great things have already begun leading up to this revival with Dr. Greg McFadden. People have been saved. We

have had wonderful new additions to the church family. And the kick-off of Awana has been phenomenal. We know

that revival is already happening here at White Hall.

Dr. Greg McFadden is the senior pastor at First Baptist, Humboldt. So while it is great to have a pastor come from a

church in our area, what makes this so special is that White Hall is his home church. As a young boy he was saved,

discipled, and led by the Word of God through the great people of this church. He was called to the ministry and he has

had a terrific ministry. I know you will welcome him back home as he comes to preach our revival on November 1-4.

As equally excited as I am to have Brother Greg here, I am looking forward to having John Norville back with us again

for our fall revival. Brother John came and led us in worshipping the Lord in song last fall and God used him in an

incredible way. Brother John brought in special singers and musicians to enhance the worship service and each person

had talent that could only come from God. I am excited to have Brother John back and I anticipate more special music

that will bless our hearts and more importantly, glorify God.

I hope you will be able to come to each of our revival services and make sure you bring someone with you. We are going

to experience God!

The annual Trenton Ministerial Alliance Thanksgiving service will be at the African American First Baptist Church on

Sunday, November 15 at 6:00 PM. Last year I preached the message at First Presbyterian and churches from all over the

community came together and we had a wonderful worship experience. I hope that you will be able to join us for the

annual community wide Thanksgiving service to help raise awareness and funds that are necessary for the Trenton

Ministerial Alliance as we help those in need in our community.

October was Pastor Appreciation month and you went out of your way to let me and my family know how much you

love us. I already knew it though. I don’t need a special month, because I feel appreciated everyday by this church. But I

want you to know that the feelings are mutual. I appreciate each of you. I think we need to create a church member

appreciation month to let me be able to tell you how much my family loves you. Because we do!

Serving Him,

Brother Chris

God is good all the time and all the time God is good. We had our children's retreat Oct. 9-10. We had 21 children that started learning the books of the Bible and memorizing scripture and gearing up for our AWANA kick off and it was so sweet to hear these little voices quoting Genesis1:1 and 2nd Timothy 2:15. Our AWANA kickoff was Sunday Oct. 11 and God blessed us with 55 students from the age of 18 months to 12th graders and 25 helpers. I want to thank the congregation of White Hall for your support and encouragement in getting this program off the ground and God is going to bless us through this Bible study program. Our children will be having a Super Saturday on Nov. 7th. We will roast hot dogs and marshmallows and have hopeful an outdoor movie night. It will be from 5-7pm.

Thank you, God bless, Ms. Sarah

SPECIAL GUESTS HERE ON NOVEMBER 8 P.M. SERVICE

Lynn Holt was the pianist at First Baptist Church, Trenton for many years. She now is pianist at the First United Methodist Church in Medina. She directs their Praise Team for the early worship. Lynn asked me if they could come to White Hall as an extended opportunity to sing outside of their church. You will not want to miss them so please put that date down - November 8 at 6:00. Also, John Norville will be leading the music for our revival. He was such a blessing to us before. Hopefully, his children will get to join him one night. Pray for John as he prepares to come. We would love for you to come and sing with us during the revival. All you have to do is make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Love, Bro. Jim

Our youth will be traveling to Pigeon Forge for the Hearts on Fire conference on Friday Nov. 20th thru Sunday Nov. 22nd. We will leave the church at 6am Friday and will be back around 3pm Sunday. Keep this conference in your prayers and ask God to move in the hearts of every student and leader there and that we will come home renewed and recharged and have our Hearts on Fire for God!
