For Parents, Guys and Girls Only

Posted by The Pastor on January 5, 2010

Wednesday Night Supper and Study

Just a quick note to all of our members. We are starting off our special study called For Parents Only (see the web site) this week. The purpose of this study is to help the parents of our church understand their kids and become better parents in image accordance with Ephesians 6:4.  I hope all of our parents will come and be at this study on Wednesday Nights in January and February.  The book that this is based on is one of the most important books I’ve read as a parent. That is not hyperbole. I really mean that. It has helped me greatly and I wanted to share it with you. We will get an overview of the study this week and give out the book and the study guide.

We start at 6:30 this week. The reason is that we know many families have a hard time getting home in time to eat and then get to church. So at 6:30 we will have a meal. This won’t be a big church potluck. This week we are have soup and sandwiches. So come get a healthy, hot supper and learn how to relate to your kids.

The youth are also taking part in a similar study. The guys are studying For Guys Only which will help them better understand themselves, their parents, and girls.  The girls are study For Girls Only which will do the same for them – help them understand themselves, their parents and guys.

We will also have regular Children In Action and a nursery.

If you have friends with kids, let them know about this great study!!

Children’s Christmas Program

Posted by The Pastor on December 17, 2009

Here is the streaming video of the Children’s Christmas Program. They did some music at the very beginning and then after congregational carols were sung they did their play – a very cute story about the animal’s view of the birth of Jesus.  After the video are some announcements about upcoming Christmas celebrations at High Peak.

 

This Sunday

This Sunday morning will be the next message in our 12 Ways of Christmas, based on David Jeremiah’s book.  Then in the evening, the adult choir will present the Christmas Cantata – a moving message of hope for hurting people at Christmas time with some beautiful music including solos by Harrison Abernathy, Cierra Stamey and Jimmy Stamey. Drama videos are from MERGE – our drama Team. We hope you can come. There will be a preview of the Cantata in the morning service.

Christmas Eve

At 6:00 pm there will be a candlelight communion worship service. Come and bring your family for a meaningful time of worship and renewal.

Boomerang Express – VBS 2009

Posted by The Pastor on August 7, 2009

Here we go!  Vacation Bible School 2009 is about to start this Sunday night.  Actually, the congregation will get a preview of the Adult VBS study http://www.forestparkbaptistchurch.org/Images/BoomerangLogoColor.jpgduring our morning worship service.  The adults will do a 6 part study on “Boomerang Believers” – What Goes Around Comes Around for Good and Bad!

Of course there will be classes for all ages and supper each night at 6 PM.  After supper we will all go to our classes with they children and youth leaving the fellowship hall and the adults staying in the fellowship hall.  Adult VBS will start about 6:45 each night and run till about 8:15.

There will be lots of fun and learning.  If the kids have a great weak and raise lot of money for our mission project (a local food kitchen) then there will be a pie in the face of either the pastor, Barb Purcell, Mandy Hice or Dennis Hamrick, our music leader.
