The Missions Evangelism Committee is to plan all phases of
the Mission and Evangelism activities for the body of Christ
here at FBC.
When you pray
for the peoples of Central Asia, you enter their lives. You become a part of their stories. You step
into God’s grand plan for the nations.
Pray for the Turks
of Turkey. May the story of God’s grace spread from
generation to generation until whole families stand together
singing His praise.
FEEDING America
A 2007 study found that in the United States:
37.3 million people were in poverty
(12.5%)
13.3 million children under the age of
18 were in poverty (18%)
3.6 million seniors 65 and older were
in poverty (9.7%)
36.2 million Americans (23.8 million
adults and 12.4 million children)
lived
in food-insecure households
3.9 million of all U.S. households
3.4%) accessed emergency food from
a food pantry one or more times
Southern Baptists
can help alleviate hunger by giving to the World Hunger
Fund. When you use the new (Reusable) Bread Basket banks
100% of all contributions will feed hungry people.

All in the family
People frequently
go on short-term trips with immediate family members, most
often with siblings. But only 14% of these trips were parent
facilitated. This means that just 1% of Americans have ever
taken a mission trip as a family. 2010 is a great year to
plan a Family Mission Trip, if you are interested in more
information, please contact Pastor Mike.
You Can Help the Relief
Efforts in Haiti
More than 2 million people in Haiti’s capital,
Port-au-Prince, and many more throughout the country are in
desperate need of water, food, shelter and medical care
following the catastrophic earthquake January 12. You can
give to help Southern Baptist relief efforts there. If you
would rather give by check or money order, make it payable
to IMB and reference the Haiti Response Fund in the
memo section.

Apart from donating to the
disaster relief fund, concerned individuals can help greatly
by joining in focused prayer for Haiti’s 9 million people,
more than 80 percent of whom live below the poverty line,
said David Brown, who with his wife, Jo, directs BGR work in
the Americas.
