On Friday, February 13, from 12:30 - 4:30 PM, The Brook is hosting a marriage seminar sponsored by Eagle Consulting (The Enrichment Center) entitled "The Art of Falling in Love." Internationally-known inspirational speaker and best-selling author, Joe Beam, will be leading the seminar. He will talk about the four steps to falling in love, staying in love, and renewing lost love. The seminar is for those who are "single and wanting to know more about creating and sustaining healthy relationships, and for married couples wanting to keep that spark, renew that spark, or better understand the ups and downs of marriage." For people who attend The Brook, the cost is $40 per couple ($20 for individuals). All proceeds will go to Wild Hearts in Action. To register, call Eagle Consulting at 256-716-0811 or 256-341-0811, or contact them at www.counselingtec.com/contact-us/. Be sure to mention that you attend The Brook.

On Saturday, March 14 from 8AM to 1PM, we'll be having a work day at The Brook to do some much needed cleaning up, fixing up, and sprucing up for spring. We need people willing to help with cleaning and organization of indoor areas, cleaning up of outdoor areas, pressure washing, mulching the playground, and doing some other interior and exterior maintenance. If you can help that day, please contact Nancy Smith. Let us know that you're available and where you'd like to help. Donuts will definitely be involved!

On Wednesday, February 25, First Baptist Huntsville will be hosting an informational meeting for anyone in Madison County who may be considering foster care. Dr. Michael Smith, Regional Vice President for Alabama Baptist Children's Home and Director of the Decatur campus, will be discussing the world of foster care. About 5,000 children in Alabama are in the foster care system, and homes with loving Christian parents are needed every day. The meeting will be from 5:30 - 7:00 PM in the Community Room at FBC Huntsville, entrance #7. FBC Huntsville is located at 600 Governors Drive. For more information call 256-428-9400, or email alison@fbchsv.org.
