the Ministry of Deacon. The Ministry of Deacon is for a three year rotation and is held by men that have been called by God and called out of this congregation. They meet the Scriptural qualifications and the temporal qualifications of the church. During the Month of May you are asked to prayerfully consider whom God can use and select up to ten names on the list provided. These men will then go through a screening process and those who have accepted the call and meet the qualifications will be voted upon by the church in August. Deacons are not merely figureheads in the church nor do they run the church. Deacons are men called of God to minister to the needs of the congregation. First Baptist Church has a long history of outstanding men who have served and are serving as Deacons. With your prayerful consideration and participation and by the Leadership of the Holy Spirit that history will continue. Last Sunday was a wonderful day of worship at First Baptist. THANK YOU!!, Adult Choir and Saints Alive for a lively evening of worship in Music. THANK YOU!!, Tyler Godwin for your special song. I cant wait to see what God is going to do this Sunday. Paul
