Dear Sisters,

Join us on Monday, August 18th, 7pm for the Fall Kickoff Celebration to help renew your mind and DIVE IN to all of what God has for you! Crawford Loritts will be encouraging us and commissioning all small group leaders to press on toward the goal and to be a shining star as we live out the word of life. Bring your small group, friends and neighbors for a time of fellowship, refreshment, and possibilities! You can make connections with other women, find your place to get involved, preview the Fall Bible study materials, meet group leaders, signup for small groups and childcare. Please be praying about how God wants to conform you to the image of His Son and prepare us as His bride. register

Contact Belinda Fitzpatrick 770.265.5639 if you need childcare for the evening of August 18th. We also need paid childcare teachers (no degree required, only love and desire) for Tuesday and Thursday mornings starting in September. Please talk to Belinda if God is calling you to share His love with our children.

Fall semester Bible studies, T/TH morning childcare, and small group registration will be available online at fbconline.org starting August 18th. Classes will begin the week of September 8, 2008. Please register your children online for T/TH mornings by August 24, 2008. Please contact Belinda Fitzpatrick at 770.265.5639 for availability after August 24th.

Many of us spent the summer studying Philippians and learning to have joy apart from our circumstances. And "Finally Sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you." Phil. 4:8-9. Philippians is full of good advice and worth the refresher to read if you missed the summer study. You were missed and I hope you can join us Monday nights next summer. In the meanwhile, there are lots of groups forming now so please get connected to support one another’s spiritual growth. Please contact Ruth Slaten at rtslaten@aol.com if you want to lead a group or need help finding a group.

You are WANTED. We want to know you, serve you and serve with you. There are several ways for you to experience real fulfillment serving in Women’s Ministry. We need flower arrangers, greeters, volunteer team leaders, decorators, childcare workers (paid! and for T/TH Fall semester), planners, and especially your heart. Come join our team and make the Aug. 18th event a night of burning desire to know God and our Savior more dearly! Contact Terri Smith at 770.663.4763 or email to connect our gifts for good!
