Dear Church Family,

               Summer has come and gone, except for the high temperatures.  School is just around the corner and the kids will be back to the routine of getting up early and having all sorts of school activities and homework to do. Also remember that there will be extra buses and teenagers on the roads each morning and afternoon, so please be watchful for them.  Please be in prayer for our students as well as all the school employees.  It can be a very exciting time but also a very stressful time for so many.  Saturday, August 3rd at 10:00 am at the Civic Center there will be an opportunity for you to serve and/or receive school supplies and to minister to our community.  On August 4th at 4 pm we will be having our Annual Prayer Walk at all our schools around Bay Minette.  You are free and encouraged to go out into the schools and have a time of prayer for the new school year.  There are few places in our country that still allow this to happen, and we should take full advantage of this if possible.  Also, with the summer ending there will be more people attending our church, so please be courteous and considerate when finding places to sit. A very loving thing to do is to give up your seat to someone who is looking for a seat and welcome them to our church.  Let people feel the love of Christ each time they come to His house and pray that lives will continue to be changed.  Most of you do a great job of this, I just want to put a reminder out there, as I know it will get more crowded.

Praise God and God Bless, Pastor Jason.
