Thomas Memorial Baptist Church

A Note from our Pastor……. Cottage Prayer Meetings in February. Mark it down on your calendar, Revival services are coming the first

Sunday in March. We will be enjoying hearing from God's Word that morning, and then Sunday through Wednesday

evening at 6:30 each of those nights. In preparation for that series of meetings we will be praying on Sunday evenings in

February, starting with the 9th and then on the 16th and 23rd. On those night members (and anyone really) are encouraged

to join in prayer at the home of one of our cottage prayer groups and pray for revival, the speakers, musicians, at-

tendees and a few other items. I'll be writing a short devo-tional guide for each of those evenings. We already have four homes where prayer meetings will be and would love to have more. If you would like to offer your home as a place of pray-

er on those three nights, please let me know. A list of loca-tions and times at each will be posted soon so you can plug

into one of these small cottage group experiences.

A Note from our Worship Leader….. I would like to take a moment to thank you all for the warm welcome and recep on Teresa and I have received since coming to Thomas Memorial Church. I am excited about the future of the music ministry here and look forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback. If you have an interest in the music whether it be playing an instrument or singing, I want to know about it, so we can use your ministry in that capacity. I will make plans to have a special

me when we can gather to discuss the future of our worship team. Please be in prayer concern-ing this and I look forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas. Thank you. David Carroll

A Thank you card from the Family of Mr. Johnny Freeman is posted on our bulletin board
