GREETINGS, EVERYONE! This Sunday, our pulpit guest will be Joe Nogalski. Joe is an experienced pastor with 34 years of vocational ministry experience, and 25 of those as a senior pastor. A couple of years ago, Joe resigned as pastor of Memorial Baptist in New Haven, MO, to take on the role previously occupied by Bob Springate as the area representative for Missouri Baptist Children's Home. With campuses in Bridgeton, Peculiar, and Mount Vernon, I believe the ministry of MBCH is among the most important ministries that we help fund through our gifts to the Missouri Baptist Convention and directly through our monthly "birthday" offerings. The lives of children and families are deeply affected by the gospel through the ministry of MBCH.
But allow me to share with you the critical situation described in a recent letter from MBCH president Russell Martin to us, and to all MBC-related churches:
"We are in a critical situation at MBCH. Because of a lack of staff, we have had to close some of the houses on our campuses. It breaks my heart to know that we have outstanding programs, we have empty beds, and there are children referred to us who need our services, but we do not have the caring, Christian people to care for them. These are children who need to hear the gospel and we don't have the opportunity to share it with them.

"MBCH is seeking to fill  live-in and shift positions on our campuses. Live-in staff works one full week and then has the next full week off. The staff filing these positions can live almost anywhere as they commute to and from home just once a week. The live-in positions are great opportunities for married couples, although we also employ singles as well. Shift staff typically works eight or ten hours per shift.


"Applicants must be at least 21 years old and be able to pass a background check. They don't need to have the answers to all of life's questions - we will provide the necessary training. We just need people to love these children like Jesus does. These positions are paid an hourly rate with a generous benefit package for full-time employees." 

If this is something that interests you, or you know of someone who might be qualified, please visit the MBCH website mbch.org or call their human resources department at 1-800-264-6224. What an amazing opportunity to make a difference in the lives of children for the sake of Christ and the Gospel!


THE LORD'S DAY (7/31): 
  • Bible Study for All Ages, 9:30 am. Nursery through Senior Adult, we have a group for you!

  • Scriptures for Sunday.  Here are the Scriptures we will be reading that will shape our corporate worship. Take a few moments to read and meditate on them as you prepare for worship tomorrow. Click anywhere on the link to see a printable version of these passages on biblegateway.com

  • Baptist Catechism Questions 17-19
    We are working our way through the Baptist Catechism of 1693, also known as “Keach’s Catechism” after Elias Keach, its primary editor. Take a few moments to read through these questions as we prepare to affirm our faith together.

    Q. 17  Did our first parents continue in the estate wherein they were created?
    A. Our first parents, being left to the freedom of their own will, fell from the estate wherein they were created, by sinning against God. 
    Gen. 3:6, 7, 8, 13; Eccles. 7:29; Rom. 5:12

    Q.18  What is sin?
    A. Sin is any want of conformity unto, or transgression of, the law of God. 
    1 John 3:4; Rom. 5:13; 14:23; 1 Pet. 1:16; Matt. 5:48; 1 Cor. 10:31.
    Comment: Sin is any attitude or desire or action that explicitly breaks a commandment of Scripture, or comes from a heart of unbelief or is not done for the glory of God.

    Q. 19  What was the sin whereby our first parents fell from the estate wherein they were created?
    A. The sin whereby our first parents fell from the estate wherein they were created, was their eating the forbidden fruit. 
    Gen. 3: 6, 12, 13, 16, 17

MONDAY (8/1)
  • GRAND OAKS CHILDREN'S CAMP Please pray for the nearly 140 children who will be in attendance this week, including seven of our own children, two adult staff, and one tenager serving as an ACIT. This camp is for children who have completed grades 4-6. Children of this age are full of questions related to their own salvation, the walk of discipleship, and what it means for them to be personally accountable to God. Pastor Scott Gilbert of Frederick Boulevard Baptist will be our camp pastor. I know Scott as a solid preacher of God's word and a true brother in the Lord. He will focus his messages on "Who is Jesus?" and "What does it mean to follow Him?" Please pray for Scott, and also for Zach Budd, children's pastor at Green Valley, who will be Boys' Bible Study Leader, and Tanya Griffin, pastor's wife at Stewartsville, who will be Girls' Bible Study Leader, as they teach and lead throughout the week. Pray for Pastor Kyle and Tyler Bridges as they lead in the music area, for Sue as she serves in the technology area, and for myself, David Long, Chris Ellis, and Susy Jaggars, as we give overall direction to the camp.
  • 8:15 am - Campers going to Grand Oaks meet at the church to load. Departing at 8:30 am!

A fair amount of hilarious mayhem ensues. Sarah Drew, Sean Astin, Patricia Heaton, and Trace Adkins lead the cast. (You may also recognize Robert Amaya and Alex Kendrick from the movie "Courageous"). Bring your lawn chairs, bean bag chairs, recliners, etc., to the fellowship hall where we'll pop popcorn, and have snacks and soft drinks available in a relaxed atmosphere. Come on out and bring a friend! (This is a licensed public screening of this movie through our CVLI license program).
SAVE THE DATE:
  • MEMBER MEETING, Sunday, Aug. 14 around NOON. Join us after the morning worship service for a fellowship meal and our bi-monthly member meeting. The Strangers Adult Sunday School Class hosted our last meal, so one or more of the other adult classes are welcome to volunteer to host this one. Hosting involves preparing the drinks, getting the table service ready, and cleaning up afterward. Church will provide drinks and table service, and members will bring everything else. 
  • Biblical Manhood Conference, Saturday, Aug. 20 at Frederick Boulevard Baptist in St. Joseph.        Greg Gilbert, author of the Crossway title "The Gospel" and pastor of Third Avenue Baptist in Louisville, KY, will be the keynote speaker. Cost is $25. If you would like to hear one of Greg's most recent sermons at Third Avenue on 1 Kings 19-20, click here for the audio. Sign up in the foyer or on eventbrite by August 15.

  Please visit our YouTube Channel to see the edited service video. 
FIGHTER VERSE: We are not currently reciting the Fighter Verses during the worship service, but I encourage you to do so in your Sunday School class and your Bible study group. Personally commit these verses to your heart, and I believe God will bless you as you do.
We have been learning verses from Psalm 91. This week's verses are Psalm 91:7-8
"A thousand may fall at your side,
    ten thousand at your right hand,
    but it will not come near you.
You will only look with your eyes
    and see the recompense of the wicked."
