Global Mission Offering

We will continue our Global Mission Offering through the month of March. This offering supports our three International Mission efforts in Athens, Greece, Albacete, Spain, and Guadalajara, Mexico. If you have not contributed to these important efforts to share the Gospel and build churches, I would encourage you to do so. Your money will support good people doing good work in the name of Christ.

McElroy Memorial Service

I want to thank everyone who played a part in preparing, carrying out, transitioning, and putting things in order before and after the service last Friday. In all my years, I have never seen guests arrive before 8:00 a.m. Our Deacon leadership tells me they believe 850 – 900 people attended the service. Thanks to those who helped us set up the Fellowship Hall on Wednesday night. We are grateful to our Deacons who arranged, cleaned around the building, and prepared for the service on Thursday. Thanks to the Deacons who arrived early on Friday to greet and assist those who attended the service. We are grateful to every member of the Hospitality Committee who prepared and organized the meal. We appreciate everyone who transitioned the Fellowship Hall from rows upon rows of chairs to the tables that hosted the meal.

Thank you for doing all that is possible to be the hands and feet of Jesus. We are grateful to everyone who took time away from work, family, responsibilities, and other obligations to care for this family.

Jim Shelburne

It was nice to have Jim Shelburne supply preaching for me while I was away for a wedding last weekend. Curtis introduced us, and Jim has been a good friend over the years. Since his retirement, Jim has become a steady fixture in Baptist Churches across the Panhandle. He is teaching a Wednesday Night Bible Study at FBC Amarillo that is packing out the room. I am grateful that Jim was able to preach in our pulpit, and I hope you enjoyed his gentle manner, which sets Jim apart.
