CORREA FAMILY ENCOURAGEMENT

We want to put a book together for Gus and his family as he continues the road to recovery!  Even if you don't know him or them well, any kind words will be appreciated and will be an encouragement to all of them! Please consider writing a letter, include a picture of you/your family, have the kids draw/color a picture, Write out a prayer you are praying for them, share a scripture passage that has brought you peace and comfort.  Send letters and pictures to info@lifewaybaptistchurch.org or bring them to church and leave them at the Welcome Desk!
We are excited that soon we will have several more babies to love on during the services! But with new babies comes the need for more workers. If you are interested in helping serve in this ministry, please sign up here OR contact the church office.
