Word of the Week

Thirty years ago or so, the members of First Baptist made a decision we all benefit from today. They purchased and/or donated the land across the street behind the church building where the new missions building and parking lot now sit. When the purchase was made, I am confident they had no idea what would be built or how the land would be used. However, I am thankful for those people who had the dream and vision of what could be on that land.

Today as a congregation we are faced with the same opportunity! At the end of each service we will have a called church conference to discuss purchasing nearly 4 acres of land just east of the missions building and across on Inez Hardy Way. I have no idea what will be on that land one day or how soon it will happen, but I do believe it is a step in the right direction for the future of FBC!

I hope you have a great week!
