“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ… Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should.” ~ Colossians 4:2-4 ~

Prayer is a powerful thing! God blesses us with the opportunity to come directly before Him with everything about our lives, our dreams, our victories, our defeats, our sins, our hurts — literally, everything. But we are not limited to praying about our own lives — or our own family’s lives — or even just about our own church.

We are invited to pray for other churches — and other pastors as well.

As a church, we have been doing just that. Nearly two years ago, we made the decision to be the sponsoring church for the Replant of a sister church — FSBC Cordes Lakes. Our prayer has been centered on finding the Replant Pastor that God had for this work. For many months, the search seemed to be almost hopeless — but we prayed. Through discouragement — we prayed. We prayed not only for the new pastor to lead the work, but we also prayed for his success.

I get to tell you this week, that God has been answering our faithful prayers! God has led us to the man He had in mind all along — and this man has accepted the call. As of August 1st, Jamie Long is now our Replant Pastor at Cordes. He and his wife Brook, have been serving as Interim Pastor for several months now, and are doing a great job. Now, however, it is official. They are looking to make a permanent move to the community as soon as housing is found.

This does not mean that we are to stop praying! There is still much to pray for concerning the Replant. Things will start to get exciting very quickly now. Let me encourage you to pray for Pastor Jamie, that there will be open doors of ministry — that he will proclaim the mystery of Christ — and that he will do so clearly. (While you’re at it, you can pray the same prayer for me as well.)

Blessings on your week as you pray continually for the spread of the Gospel, both here and around the world.

Pastor Terrell P.S. One week from now, on Sunday evening, August 13th, we will be watching the sermon video of Pastor Shane Hall of FSBC Del City, Oklahoma — another Pastor we have been praying for as a church. This is a life-changing sermon. Grab someone to come with you — and show up!

WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDY “BELIEVING GOD” BEGINS TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5TH 10:00 A.M. FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT THE CHURCH OFFICE.

August 13th: For all current Sunday morning Bible Study staff (Adult teachers, substitutes, elective teachers, Children’s teachers, helpers, Kidz4Christ workers, Good News Club workers, AWANA Clubs workers, VBS workers, Youth staff). This is not only for current workers but also if you are interested in being part of the educational team at FSBCPV, please come. There is no fee because it is free!

There will be a time of fellowship, with food, and preparation for this next school year.

It will be a time to encourage one another, a short time of instruction on the importance of including doctrinal teaching with our Bible stories and some future considerations of room painting (murals) and decorating.

It will be right after the 10:30 am service in the Fellowship Hall. The entire meeting, including the meal will be less than 75 minutes so that your entire afternoon is not too busy. The meal will include sub sandwiches, chips, a couple of salad choices and ice cream cups.

Please sign up to acknowledge that you will attend, either on the back of your connection card or on the sign-up sheet in the Foyer.

Thank you for your dedication to the Lord and your faithful service for Him. Sincerely, Pastor Frank
