Master Planning Task Force:  If you have not heard yet, let me share  with you! The church met Sunday night, November 14, and the meeting was well attended. The committee and the architect shared the plans for the new buildings. The vote was taken and passed unanimously.  Praise God!

“Celebration of Giving”  The month of October and the first 2 weeks of November have been the greatest months of financial giving in the 25-year history of the church. How remarkable in the midst of the greatest financial recession since the Great Depression, our people trust God enough to give in a way that our church has never seen before. People who have not been giving have shared stories with me about how God has led them and they have been such a blessing to me I wish I could share them all with you.

By now most of you know that Josh Moore, our minister of Worship, has resigned to take a different position as a Resident Intern Pastor in a church in Chesterfield. While we all hate to see Josh go, we are excited about the new prospects of his ministry and what God holds in store for us here at First Baptist Lake St. Louis. Josh has been a great addition and a faithful staff member to this church during his tenure here. Please be praying for him and his family as they start this new chapter in their lives.
