School Highlight - First Priority Making An Impact in Pell City

 

Pell City Students

 

First Priority is "alive and kicking" in ALL nine schools in the Pell City School System. About 25 adults, including teachers, youth pastors and community leaders, volunteer their time each morning to make this happen at every school. lola Roberts Elementary School Principal Roy Bliss said, "First Priority has been a tremendous blessing to Iola. We have had some very unusual needs this year and First Priority has played a role in helping us keep our focus on Jesus. First Priority has turned our humdrum Mondays into joyful and worshipful Mondays."

 

First Priority gives students an opportunity to share with others and take a stand for Christ on their campus. It also serves as a place to be encouraged by fellow believers. According to a middle school student that isn't allowed to go to church, "First Priority IS my church." The growth in Pell City has been tremendous in the past year. Other schools in the surrounding area are also gaining strength. Munford Middle and High Schools in Talladega County have also implemented First Priority this year. We are excited that First Priority continues to spread into more and more schools. We can't wait to see how God is going to continue to move in our area.

Save the Date for First Priority's SCORE Dinner

 

SCORE Dinner 2012 

We would like to invite you to join First Priority for our SCORE (Students Count On Real Examples) Dinner on Thursday, April 26, 2012, at 6:30 p.m. at Grace Life Baptist Church, 6200 Lou George Loop, Bessemer, AL, 35022. Come out and join us for an evening filled with fun, fellowship and inspiration.

 

Our special guest speaker is Courageous' Robert Amaya, bilingual professional actor/singer in Miami with a background in theater. Robert is most recently known for his role as Javier in the new Sherwood Film, COURAGEOUS. He felt humbled and honored playing this character because it reminded him of his own father's struggles to survive in a new country with a family. Between projects, Robert travels across the nation singing and speaking at both English and Spanish churches, schools and organizations about a variety of topics including fatherhood, honor and Christianity. Click here to learn more about Robert. You don't want to miss Robert and his words of encouragement.

 

To purchase SCORE Dinner tickets or to sponsor a table, please call 205.871.8886. We hope you will mark your calendars now and plan to join us on Thursday, April 26, 2012.
