God Builds His Church

You haven't seen much activity on the church website lately, and for that I apologize. But don't take that as an indication that God has stopped working around here! On the contrary, so much is going on that my head is spinning. God didn't stop doing great things when He finished the Bible. He still works today. "The God that did, DOES. The God that was, IS!"

So let me share a bit about what's happened here in recent days, just in case you've been missing out on this exciting little corner of His kingdom.

Starting with the very best - in January, God let us rejoice with 7 of His who followed Jesus' example in baptism. Check it out:


February, traditionally the yuckiest month of the year, we decided to brighten things up and dispel the gloom. First, on Valentines Day we brightened the worship service with everybody wearing something RED. It was Red Heart Sunday, and after the RED worship service, we enjoyed a luncheon in fellowship hall. Check it out:




If that wasn't enough, on February 20th we met at Kent Lanes for bowling. One year ago, when we did this, a handful of people showed up. This year, 30 participated and we had a truly wonderful time.





Finally, on February 27th, 9 men met in Fellowship Hall for the first Mens' Prayer Breakfast. Some of the ladies cooked a "to die for" biscuits and gravy breakfast, Brother Jim provided refreshment from the Word, and we spent some time praying for one another and for those we love and care about. It was great, and hopefully only the first of many such gatherings. This picture doesn't do the event justice, for the food is not yet on the table, but it gives a little idea of the proceedings.

No doubt - God has been blessing here at FBC. February was a busy month. And these things are only part of what happened during the month. Zumba Classes started in February. Zumba is a Latin dance / fitness program that is being offered to our ladies (sorry guys) on Wednesday evenings after prayer meetings. Construction started in February (we always seem to be tearing something apart or building something) on the renovation of our kitchen and bathrooms.

Friendship Bible Church is a happenin' place - as God's House should be. Are you part of these things? You can be - join us each and every Lord's Day at 9:30 for Sunday School and 10:30 for Worship. Join us each and every Wednesday for prayer meeting at 6:30. And keep an eye on the church calendar (always available on the FBC Website).

You have friends at Friendship Bible Church!
