UPCOMING
Some observations: - When we recently baptized some new believers, I was reminded of the joy of seeing fresh faith, expressing itself in this “wet witness” to Jesus’ saving power. - Our FBC Care Center was a huge hit this spring. The Care Center is set up in a room near our Fellowship Hall and open prior to each Wednesday night meal. This space provides a modest wellness check-up and a free store for basic personal supplies. Several community friends have told me how much this center means to them.
- Please pray for Vacation Bible Camp and Sports Crusaders Camps, June 25-29. Through these events, we have the opportunity to impact many children and families with the message of Christ. - I’ll share some summer vacation with family this month and will also have the opportunity to represent FBC JC at Cooperative Baptist Fellowship’s General Assembly in June and the Baptist World Alliance meeting in July. I hope your summer is off to a good start. Grace,
Doyle

REFUGE SUMMER YOUTH INTERN // Natalie Wittenberger We are pleased to welcome back Natalie Wittenberger as our summer youth intern. She served as our youth intern last summer and is a former Refuge Youth Group member. She is also a member of First Baptist Church. Natalie just finished her junior year at Missouri State University in Springfield, MO.

Basecamp Sundays, 9:30-10:30am / Refuge Rm
Natalie officially begins June 3 but has already been working on summer plans for Refuge. We will finish up the summer calendar and mail it the first week of June. You can reach Natalie at youthintern@fbcjc.org or 573.690.3247. Natalie will also help lead worship for Vacation Bible Camp this summer. We’re grateful for Natalie’s heart and passion for ministry and the chance to serve with her again this summer.
Our June series is called “Finding My Way”. Sometimes the teen years can seem like “living-in-between”. When do you stop being a kid? When do you become an adult? What if people expect one thing, but you feel like you are the other? We will learn from scripture about what it means to embrace this period of transition through rites of passage; mentors and role models, and finding your identity in Christ.
