Life of the Church continued… Sticky Faith for Parents SHEDULE CHANGE! At First Baptist we believe family is the primary locus of faith formation; our desire is to come alongside parents and families as they raise their children to be all God is calling them to become. To that end, we are offering an opportunity for parents in our congregation to come alongside one another to learn and share together. For five sessions through personal, real-world experiences of research and sharing, The Sticky Faith Parent Curriculum presents powerful strategies and practical ideas, enabling you to impart a deep lasting faith in your children. The group will meet five Sunday afternoons from 4-6 pm (November 9, November 23, November 30, December 7, and December 14). Sign up to participate in the welcome center, youth suite, children's floor, or preschool floor, or by emailing Kim Pieratt (
[email protected]). There is no cost to participate

This Week at FBC
Morning Scripture Psalm 32:1-7 Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 2 Happy are those to whom the Lord imputes no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. 3 While I kept silence, my body wasted away through my groaning all day long. 4 For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. Selah 5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not hide my iniquity; I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,” and you forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah 6 Therefore let all who are faithful offer prayer to you; at a time of distress, the rush of mighty waters shall not reach them. 7 You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with glad cries of deliverance. Selah

Wendell Boertje Merciful God, We confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart and mind and strength. We have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. In your mercy forgive what we have been, help us amend what we are, and direct what we shall be, so that we may delight in your will and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Holy Name, through Christ, our Lord.

Wendell Boertje God’s Word assure us: “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He who is faithful and just will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” In humility and faith let us confess our sin to God.

“Even now,” declares the Lord, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.”

Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.

IMPACT 2015 Dinner-October 22nd IMPACT 2015 is the dinner and presentation in which we will lay out our three-year ministry strategy and unveil our budget plan for 2015.

However, the meal will still be very special. The menu will feature chicken/vegetable kabobs; shrimp and steak kabobs; asparagus with Hollandaise Sauce; roasted potatoes; broccoli spears; Caesar Salad; and an array of desserts. Come and join us for a great night of information, conversation, and great food.

Youth Fall Retreat 2014 October 31- November 2, Walden Lodge We return to Walden Lodge October 31-November 2 for one of the most popular Youth Ministry events of the year! Our Fall Retreat theme this year is STUCK. We'll look together at the negative connotations of being stuck (difficult questions & circumstances) and the positive connotations (perseverance & dedication). Scripture has a lot to teach Christ-followers about being STUCK! We'll also have our annual Youth Ministry @ 1B film festival, other fun activities, awesome food, great worship, and more! Fall Retreat is $75 per person. As always, financial assistance is available as needed! All forms and fees are due by October 22. Hard copies of forms are available in the youth suite & digital copies are available at http://www.fbcknox.org/youth/events/. Surviving the Holidays Sunday, November 2, at 3:30 pm It is hard to believe, but the holidays are fast approaching. As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas, and a New Year, it is sometimes a difficult season for those who have lost loved ones. Instead of looking forward to the holidays, you may be dreading them. There is help. On Sunday, November 2, at 3:30 pm, we will offer Surviving the Holidays with practical ways to help you through those difficult days. There will be video, discussion, and everyone will receive a 30-day devotional to take home with you to use during the holidays. No matter how long since you have suffered a personal loss, Surviving the Holidays can help you. To sign up, contact Pam at
[email protected] or call the church. Join us for Surviving the Holidays. We Need Help We have several children and youth across our city that would like to be at church but who do not have a way to get here. Would you be willing to help pick up and/or drop off children or youth on Sunday mornings? If so, please let Tom know at
[email protected].
