Emmanuel Baptist Church

February 7th, 2023

EBC Family,

Hope you enjoyed the time of fellowship and chili last night. We will not be meeting next Sunday night 2/12 as many of our groups are hosting Super Bowl Fellowships. Let me encourage you, that if you are planning to watch the game, don’t do it alone. Invite a friend or two to your house - especially someone that doesn’t go to church. The Super Bowl provides a good chance to build relationships. (The women’s Philippians Bible Study will still meet at 6:00 next Sunday evening).

I have good news regarding our Administrative Assistant position. Stephenie Bunce has decided to remain in this role, albeit at fewer hours per week. Stephenie will be working weekday mornings while Katie Ramirez will be working weekday afternoons. The Personnel Committee interviewed Katie last week and is excited about her joining our Staff Ministry Team. We will vote on hiring Katie at our next Quarterly Business Meeting, Sunday night February 26 at 5:30 p.m.

I will be at a conference at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary this week, but look forward to seeing you next Sunday morning.

It is a blessing to serve Jesus with you,

Pastor Clint
