News and Notes for Sunday, January 27, 2012


Hey! What Ever Happened To The Fellowship Club? No one is quite sure, but we're forming a search party. Let's look for them at the annual Fat Tuesday dinner, February 12, from 5-7 pm out at the Ag Tech. Come enjoy an impressive buffet of creole, cajun and lots of 'normal' selections. The desserts are phenomenal, and the yellow, green and purple jester hat is optional. It's coming right up, so sign up on the sheet in the lounge pronto.

Sacred Acts – Baptisms: This morning Mackensie Mae Chandler and Alyshia Jae Chandler, daughters of Jayson and Angela (nee Tucker) Chandler will confess their faith in the Lord God, especially in Jesus Christ as their Savior from sin and death, through the Sacrament of Holy Baptism. At the same time, through the water and the Word of Baptism, God will wash away their sin and declare them to be His daughters whom He dearly loves. We congratulate Mackenzie and Alyshia and we pray that they will continue to hear, read, and study God’s Word and be active in the Church so that they will remain steadfast in the Christian faith all the days of their lives and obtain eternal life.
