MISSION TRIP FUNDRAISER
Take-out Lunch in Fellowship Hall
This fundraiser is for the upcoming mission trips to Honduras. Our pastor, Ron Lentine, will be representing our church this fall as he teaches T4T to Central American pastors. If you are willing to help support our pastor financially with the expenses for this mission trip, please attend this fundraiser today following the morning worship service. You may make your checks payable to Myrtle Grove Baptist Church, designated for "Pastor's Trip." NOTE: All other money given which is not designated to the pastor will be used for ministry supplies and expenses for future mission trips. Any contributions designated for the pastor that exceed the amount needed for his expenses will also be used for future upcoming mission trips to Central America.
Tonight @ 5pm . . .
Come back tonight at 5pm (one hour earlier than our normal evening worship starting time) for the showing of the film "Heaven Is For Real." This is the story of a young boy who experienced the glory of heaven and came back to tell the story.
Next Sunday . . . We will observe
THE LORD'S SUPPER
during the 10:30am Worship Service.
That evening after the 6pm service there will be a
FAREWELL FELLOWSHIP
for
RON POULIOT

This will be Bro. Ron's last Sunday at MGBC. Please feel free to bring any cards or gifts of appreciation for Bro. Ron at that time. Also, during the evening worship service you will be given an opportunity to share testimonies about ways Bro. Ron Pouliot has touched your life.
