Greetings!

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR:
 
Dear Church Family: 
This week, I will be leaving for Orlando, Florida, to attend the Southern Baptist Convention. 

Please be in prayer for this year's convention; some serious issues will be discussed and voted on as well as the election of a new president.

 Our convention carries a significant spiritual influence on our nation. 

Ask God to both protect and bless the work of our denomination that we may continue to shine brightly as His witnesses.   

 
Share Your Story . . . .  Share God's Love!
This summer, on July 13 and July 20 (Tuesday nights) we shall once again be knocking on doors in the neighborhood. 

We are calling on members of our fellowship to please join us in this evangelistic effort.

 We be distributing literature about our church as well as offering prayers for those we visit. 

Begin now clearing your calendar for those dates. 

We will go out at 6:30pm and return no later than 7:45pm.  SEE YOU THERE!

 
Sincerely,
Pastor Ron

Calling all FBC Disaster Relief and Recovery members:  June is Disaster Relief and Recovery month.

Please wear your yellow or blue shirts on Sundays this month. 

We want to place a great emphasis on this month, remembering that hurricane season has begun.

 Predictions are that this may be a bad year and certainly we need to be prepared.

 I want to thank all of you who attended training in Ft. Walton Beach on June 5th, and all of you who are already trained.

Everyone I spoke with said it was great.

I have two yellow hats and two shirts, size large, given by Richard Main, if anyone needs one.

 We are looking forward to starting our own team here at Myrtle Grove.

 I would like to have a meeting with ALL Disaster Relief team members today at 5pm in fellowship hall to discuss where we want to go from here.

 I look forward to meeting you all.

 Patrick G. McCann, Sr., Director, MGBC Disaster Relief and Recovery And Chaplain

VBS   Celebration  Day
June 27th - Combined Service
cowboy

We will have a combined worship service at 10:30am to celebrate our week of VBS.  This will be an exciting time as we welcome our VBS families, our contempory service family, and our blended service family in one service.  The children will fill the stage and sing many of the songs they learned and we will share what the Lord has done during this week of outreach to our community.   Ron Pouliot will bring a message reminding all ages that God cares about us and has a plan for each one of us no matter our age.  Come dressed in your "western apparel."  So "partner," quit your "pondrin," and put on your cowboy hats, boots, and bandannas and join us at Saddle Ridge Ranch!  Why don't you lasso your neighbors and friends and bring them along!

If you have not bee in the balcony lately - and seen all the "stuff" around the sound booth and the projection equipment you may want to wander up there before the service begins and take a look.  There are a lot of knobs, buttons, dials, wires (oh, are there wires), and it is really pretty nice how it all comes together.  What there is not a lot of is "people" - and people make all this work.

Warning:  If you do pay a visit and express the slightest interest in how something works you may very well get recruited into helping - hey, that would be a good thing!

 
Dedication:  noun,  from the 14th century - If you looked it up there would be a picture of the sound/video/projection crew.
