Emmanuel Baptist Church

October 18, 2022

EBC Family,

I hope y'all had an enjoyable morning of worship on Sunday. Carey and I had a fun time serving with our 2 and 3 year olds! Those kids are a blast to be around. If you aren't serving on our quarterly nursery rotation, you are missing out on a blessing. Plus you are missing out on being a blessing. If you are interested in serving, please talk with Sherry Gooch - our nursery coordinator. I am grateful for her faithful service to ensure that we have quality care for the youngest members of our Church Family every week!

Your Constitution and By-Laws Committee has considered your input, incorporated various suggestions, and put together a final document that I believe will serve our Church Family well in the coming years. Copies of the proposed document are available in the Foyer - on the counter across from the Worship Center. Please pick up a copy to review and consider prior to the Quarterly Business Meeting on Sunday night, October 30 at 6:00. If you have questions about the document, please contact one of the members of the Committee prior to the Business Meeting. Members are Larry Wright, Kenny Watson, Kelly Metscher, Chuck Marquis, and Scott Long. Please express your appreciation to them and especially to Scott Long who made all of the edits and revisions for us.

Remember that there will be no Wednesday night activities this week for Fall Break.

I am grateful to belong to the EBC Family,

Pastor Clint
