In the midst of crisis, our pastors and churches have shown adaptability and innovation in continuing to proclaim the Good News of the Lord Jesus.  Some who had no social media presence are now active on social media.  Some have expanded ministry to include outdoor services and live streaming.  The reach has been spectacular! 

Now, as many of our churches begin to move back inside, don't forget the lessons learned during this crisis.  Be flexible and seize every viable option for sharing the truth of God's word.  Begin to pray for those who watch on social media.  Pray that they might connect with a church that preaches truth even if it's not your church.  After all, we are to be about building His Kingdom.  Jesus said that HE would "build My Church." (Matthew 16:18)   Every pastor and every member are commissioned to be witnesses. It is God Who brings forth the fruit.  When we are busy building His kingdom, He will build our churches.  

 Please consider letting us know your schedule as your church moves forward.  We would like to post it on the website.  Indoor, Outdoor, Facebook Live or YouTube.  Just send Zane an email and he'll put it on the website.  

Black Creek Church will hold Vacation Bible School July 29-31 with commencement during worship on Sunday, August 2.  Scott Hanna is pastor.

Maple Cane Church has called Blake Anderson to be their full-time pastor.  Blake has been bi-vocational.  

Youth Pastor Jeff Leopard has announced his resignation effective August 16, as he, Cat, and the children relocate to Cumming, Georgia to be closer to the hospital that will provide further treatment for their daughter, Adelyn.  She will have heart surgery on September 17.  Pray for them and First Baptist as this transition occurs and continue to pray for Adelyn, her family, and the surgical team that will care for her. 

 So far, we've placed the Gospel into 9,104 homes in Colleton County.  

Code Blue Gospel Ministry is is being reformatted to involve more local churches in outreach to their communities.           

For as long as we have funding, we will order materials for packets and make them available to churches to distribute in your local areas.  We can even provide you with mapping and logistical information about the people in a 1-3 mile radius of your church.  Call the CBA office or email Zane if your church would be interested.
