Our Church Bond Program

Keith Glore from Commonwealth Church Finance will be here to present the plans of our bond program this Sunday, November 23rd in our Morning Worship Service. We felt we would have the most people here on a Sunday Morning and that is the reason we are doing this then.

There will a table at the back of the church on Sunday, for those individuals who have IRA's to make appointments to meet with Keith to discuss how those can be rolled over.

On Sunday, November 30th, members of First Baptist Church will have opportunities to sign up for the bonds they would like to purchase. Bonds will be available in various denominations. Everything is handled in strict confidence through Commonwealth Church Finance.

We encourage members to invest in the future of this church. Please tell your friends about our bond program because they might want to invest.

Venezuela

The Lord has truly blessed us in Venezuela. The city of Caracas has a population of 5 million people and only 2% of that population is Christian. We have been working with a group of missionaries in Venezuela that have been a true blessings. They are some of the most committed individuals I have worked with.

Dr. Long presented to them the Bible Training Centre for Pastors Program. They were very interested in this program. They told us that they have been praying for such a program and thought they would have to design it themselves. This program is design for national pastors who need Biblical education but not able to go to college or seminary.

Please pray for Caracas, Venezuela has they will be having elections this Sunday. Let's pray that there will be no violence from this election.
