PLEASE BE PRAYING FOR… March 20, 2014
W
elcome to worship at First Baptist. We are so glad that you have joined us today. From the heart of downtown Knoxville, we are touching lives around the world, sharing the ministry and life of Jesus Christ. If you need further information about our church, or desire a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, our ministers will be available following the service at each exit. Please prepare for worship by:
• Silencing cell phones, pagers and PDAs. • Encouraging children five years old and older to worship using the printed supplements available from ushers. • Taking advantage of our Preschool Extended Session designed specifically for children age 3 and under. Pagers are provided to communicate with parents in case of emergency. Children age 4 years 1st grade may attend Passage, our children’s worship experience, after the children’s sermon, or remain with their parents in the service. • Noting that restrooms are located directly behind the choir loft. Becoming a Member You are welcome and encouraged to come to the front of the church to meet with a minister during the Hymn of Response to request baptism or to join the church. If you are not ready to do this, please complete the information in the tear-off portion of this worship folder and place it in the offering plate and a minister will contact you this week. Or, you may simply call the church office to request an appointment with any minister. Continue the Experience Check your local television provider’s guide for information about the rebroadcast of today’s worship service. The worship service is available on DVD and can be obtained by calling the church office. The message for today’s worship service will also be available later this week online at www.fbcknox.org.
