Treasure Fest 2018 – Calling all Sunday School Teachers, Ministry Leaders and anyone storing anything here. We are going to start a church-wide storage cleaning! Room Closets, Storage Closets, Storage Areas – everything must be sorted through! Unwanted items can be temporarily put in room 11 (next to the women’s bathroom by Springer Chapel). Items to be left in main storage areas should be clearly marked with either owner’s name or the ministry’s name. Treasure Fest will take place on the following Sundays (7/29, 8/1 & 8/8) where everyone will have a chance to go through the unwanted items!
fellowship! Last week there was a positive vote (Yes: 89, No: 11, Abstain: 3) to hire Hiller Architectural Group for the proposed building project. Due to time constraints, we mentioned that there would be a follow-up meeting. At this special business meeting, now scheduled for June 24th, we’ll be seeking approval of the specifics of the building project as summarized in the four-page handout distributed at the June 3rd meeting. A ballot vote will be taken. Copies of the handouts are available at the Information Desk if you were unable to attend the June 3rd meeting. Approval to proceed to the construction phase will come at a later date after we receive competitive bids from building contractors. Let us continue to be in prayer for God’s direction.

Þ Sr. High will soon be serving in Rochester June 24-30 and Jr. High here July 8-14. We are asking you to join us by providing some simple meals for us to take along. Five meals for six people both of these weeks is what we’re praying for: frozen or easy-to-make. Circle “F” on your connect card or email Pastor Luke at PLuke@danvillefirstbaptist.org.
Þ Jr. High is also looking for opportunities to serve you, our church family, during the “24/7” mission trip here in Danville the week of July 8-14. Windows, yardwork, small jobs, etc. If a group of silly Jr. Highers can do it, we want to serve! Circle “S” on your connect card or email Pastor Luke.
