Tell Your Story
As we plan our 2023 Sunday School and Small Group Celebration, we want to hear your story of how you maximized ministry efforts throughout the pandemic. Tell us how you shut down and re-opened. Did you find creative ways to continue your small group gatherings? Did you use social media? Did you re-organize or create new units? Your story is important to us and we not only want to celebrate with you, we also want to acknowledge and reward your success. Furthermore, others can learn from your victory.
|
|
Therefore, we hope you will enlist a representative to script and share your story. Send your story to the Associational office at 616 Azalea Road, Mobile, AL 36609 or kjones@mobilebaptists.org and have someone prepared to briefly “tell what the Lord has done” (1 Chronicles 16:9) at the Celebration.
