ANNOUNCEMENTS

PackHOPE What’s the PackHOPE experience about? We are collecting donations to fund the food we’ll be packing on Saturday, September 11th, and shipping to Unto, who partners with Cru, and ships the food globally! Why food? Food allows their partners and pastors on the ground all over the world to access remote places they are not usually permitted to go. While distributing the food, they build relationships and are able to share the gospel! PackHOPE Experience Details:

Date/Times: Saturday, September 11 | 2 shifts: 8:30am & 11:00am
Financial & Food Goals: $26,000 – pays for 78,000 meals
Volunteer Goal: 72 people per shift
Ages: All volunteers must be 12 y/o or older

Questions? Contact: Donna Outt. Donations for the PackHOPE experience are so welcome! Grab an M&M tube, fill it with quarters and return it by Sept. 5th! Staying away from sugar? Donate online at: danvillefirstbaptist.org/PackHOPE/

The Barnabas Basket is a monthly food collection that takes place on the first Sunday of the month (Communion Sunday). All donations are given to the Danville Food Bank. The basket will be located in the main lobby. June’s Need: Canned Fruit.

Red Cross Blood Drive will be here tomorrow, in the BFLC (gym) from 1:00-6:00pm. The Red Cross is in need of blood and is taking every precaution to keep everyone safe during their collections.

Breakfast Sweets Needed! Our Sunday morning Coffee Hour team would be grateful for any homemade or store-bought breakfast foods. Please drop off in the kitchen before 9am. NOTE: items must be individually wrapped prior to drop off. Many heartfelt thanks! Wanna join the team? Sign up for a Sunday at the food table! The team will walk you through what you need to know!

Baptism Sunday on June 20!! If you would like to take the plunge in following Jesus’ example, let us know on your connect card by NEXT Sunday!

Heartfelt Thanks to Wayne Krebs! We want to take a minute to thank Wayne Krebs for his 55+ (yes, 55+!!) years of volunteer service at First Baptist Church in the audio and media ministry. His vision and commitment helped launch and grow our live-audio, radio, and live-streaming ministries that so many people enjoy today. He is retiring from the audio ministry, but will continue to serve in different areas at FBC. If you see him, thank him for all he has done!

Service Projects Needed!! The youth group has two weekends as well as other days over the summer to help with small or simple projects, like
yardwork, painting, etc. But we won’t just show up to a random house, so we need to know if you or someone you know has some service opportunities for us! You can contact Pastor Luke with any jobs

New Our Daily Breads! Check out the Borrow-a-Book box & Tract Rack to pick up your new Regular Print devotional for June, July, August!

FBC Summer Reading Program! Our Library is welcoming kiddos from Kindergarten to 6th grade to take part in the Scripture Reading Race! Stop in and pick up your race card and win a prize once you have crossed the finish line! A parent/guardian signature is required on your completed card for prize eligibility.
